SPINACH 
Spinach is a cool weather crop and may be sown very early 
in the spring. It is not injured by spring freezes. Sow in 
rows 18 to 24 in. apart, cover seed with 1 in. of soil and 
thin plants to stand 5 or 6 in. apart in the row. Make 
successive sowings until early summer and plant again early 
in the fall. Plantings made in September will survive 
through the winter as far north as Pennsylvania and will 
give cuttings two weeks earlier than spring sown crops. One 
pkt. will sow about 25 ft. of row; 1 oz. 100 ft.; 10 to 12 lbs. 
one acre in rows; 20 lbs. one acre broadcast.
