Oh boy looks like I’m building another raised bed
Love the varieties
I have your new zealand spinach, and boy of boy, I planted it in one bed 3 years ago. Last year I planted different spinach seeds, but the NZ came up again on its own in a random bed, and same again this year! That stuff is intense! It's my favorite though! We freeze dry and powder excess so I don't need to eat salads and creamed spinach all summer.
Both will survive a Chicago winter with low tunnel cover. Add on Winter Giant for wonderful deep winter greens. When they bolt, remove the plastic, plant bush green beans, and right about the time they are done it is time to go back to spinach. A great rotation for year round yummies.
How do you prevent insects from muching your spinnach? My greens always have damaged leaves from insects probably munching on them. Thanks.
Do u grow perpetual spinach? It's my favorite to grow. It never goes to seed when it's hot. It also doesn't die during the winter. It survives through the hot and cold weather. I've gotten a few friends to grow it, and now it's a permanent fixture in our gardens.
Take my 💰
Luke, I live in Ocala, Fla (zone 9) considering growing Malabar spinach next spring…the summers here are brutal… do you think I’ll have any luck or give up the idea?
These are the two varieties I’ve got currently growing! I put both into a creamy Alfredo-ish pasta sauce for dinner last night and it was delicious.
Love you guys!!❤❤❤❤
Luke the garlic i ordered from you got scapes! Duh ,i forgot to order spinach 🙄.. But your grand rapids leave lettuce is amazing! My bok choy went to flower with the hot spell. Variety tomatoes 42 day. Silvery fir. Moskvich … ❤
Got to order some for fall..
I'm looking for perpetual spinach but it's not for sale in your store. I'm in southern VA 7b/8a and I have to give up on Spinach. I've tried so many varieties only to have them bolt or fail to thrive in winter. But I know of people in NC that can grow perpetual spinach year round… even in their hoop house in the summer months! Any chance y'all will start carrying it at MIGardner shop?
Wish my American spinach didn’t bolt as soon as it was big enough to harvest
The same two I've always grown, perhaps because it's what I see for seeds in most places that sell seed. Both are wonderful!
Here in Sioux Falls, South Dakota I always plant fall spinach. Even with our very cold winters, the spinach plants always start back up in the Spring, giving me a head start on spinach salads.
I need spinach for zone 8b. Mine always bolts. 😢
a must grow spinach for me is Matador, the leaves can get massive but still stays tender. down here in southern VA spinach planted in spring is quite the challenge since the weather never can make up its mind what it wants to do in spring, hoodie weather one day then you need shorts the next lol. Instead i plant them at the first of october and grow them all through winter and that seems to work best for me.
