Spinacia, Spinach 'Seaside' Hybrid
- Sun Preference
- Full-Sun, Part-Sun
Description
Prized for baby leaf production, Seaside produces masses of smooth, dark green, spade-shaped leaves on upright plants. Moderate growth rate deters bolting (sending up a flower stalk), perfect for spring and early summer planting. Resistant to downy mildew.
Spinach is cold hardy and can be planted in very early spring and fall, or winter in mild climates. Plant in full sun to light shade in fertile soil. Keep evenly moist through the growing season. Drought conditions can encourage bolting. Sow every 10 days for a continuous harvest. For baby leaf, harvest individual leaves at desired size. Pick from the outside of the rosette to keep young leaves producing. Or harvest whole plant by cutting approximately 2″ above the ground.
