Sowing Instructions:
For the best results, sow Spinach Santa Cruz F1 seeds directly outdoors in a sunny or partially shaded location with well-drained, fertile soil. Prepare the soil by adding compost or organic matter to improve fertility. Sow seeds thinly in rows spaced 30 cm apart, placing each seed about 2.5 cm deep. Keep the soil moist but not waterlogged throughout the growing period.
For continuous crops, sow seeds every 2-3 weeks from early spring to late summer. Germination typically occurs in 7-10 days, and young leaves can be harvested in as little as 4-6 weeks after sowing. For baby spinach, harvest when the leaves are small and tender. If left to mature, the plant will produce larger leaves that can be picked individually as needed.
Spinach Santa Cruz F1 is a robust, reliable variety that offers a consistent supply of nutrient-rich greens. Packed with vitamins and minerals, it’s a fantastic addition to any garden or kitchen. Perfect for gardeners of all levels, this versatile spinach provides a high yield and a delicious harvest throughout the growing season.
