How to Grow Spinach 
Sow seeds very early in the spring, either broadcast or in rows 18 to 
24 in. apart; cover the seed with 1 in. of soil and thin plants to stand 
5 or 6 in. apart in the rows. At each picking, remove every other 
plant, which will allow room for remaining plants to fully develop. 
Additional sowings may be made when the preceding planting is up 
and growing, but the last should be two months before hot weather is 
expected. For fall use, sow in late summer; for early spring use, where 
winters are mild, sow in early fall and cover with a few inches of hay, 
leaves or litter. A pkt. will sow 25 ft. of row; 1 oz. 75 ft. Directions 
for growing New Zealand spinach are given on the seed bags.
