Growing spinach

[Yogi]

Have you ever tried growing spinach in containers and ended up with thin, leggy plants?

Spacing is one of those things that often gets overlooked, but it really matters with spinach. If the seedlings are too crowded, they compete for light and airflow, and the result is weak growth and smaller leaves. We’ve found that thinning them early, once they have about two true leaves, makes a huge difference in both leaf size and overall health.
