Sow approximately 12 seeds per foot of row, or scatter over a wide row or bed. For successful germination, ensure soil temperature is not above 70°F. Make additional plantings every couple of weeks during early spring. If seeking a summer harvest, consider New Zealand or Malabar Spinach as common spinach can't grow in midsummer.
