Bloomsdale 
Long Standing 
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.
