How To Grow Spinach Plant

Spinach seeds sowing directly into a pot is the best way to grow. Avoid transplanting or repotting germinated seeds as spinach has delicate roots and do not grow well with transplanting. Grow spinach at home with the best germination temperature between 15-25°C. Select a pot/grow bag and fill them with a sowing medium. Sow the spinach seed about 1.5-2 cm deep in the soil at 5-8 cm from each seed. Give deep water to the soil by using a watering can. Keep the pot in a shaded area because spinach seeds do not need light to germinate. Spinach seeds will be germinated within 4-14 days. Protect the seedlings from direct harsh sunlight and do not overwater the seedlings.

Fertilizer For Spinach Plant

• Add any organic fertilizer (neem cake, vermicompost, cow manure) to the soil before planting spinach.
• After the seeds germinate and when the plant makes roots correctly, apply nitrogen-rich liquid fertilizer around the spinach plants. If you use solid fertilizer by loosening the soil, then the roots of spinach can be damaged, so use liquid fertilizer after seed germination.
• After 10-15 days of spinach seed germination, apply solid organic fertilizer like vermicompost or cow manure.

Spinach Plant Care Tips

Sunlight - Spinach needs 6- 8 hours of full sunlight, but it can also grow well in 4- 6 hours of partial sunlight.
Water – Give regular water to the spinach plant. It helps to keep the spinach plant cool but does not overwater and keeps the soil moist because spinach will bolt when the soil dries out.  
Soil – Use well-drained and nutrient-rich soil for plant spinach.    
Temperature – Spinach is a cool weather crop and can easily survive in lower temperatures. The best minimum temperature for spinach is 10°C and a maximum of 27°C.
Common pests and diseases – Cutworms, snails, cabbage loopers, and slugs are all common pests of spinach that can eat the leaves of plants; to avoid these pests, use garlic juice or neem oil spray. Leaf miners and downy mildew are the two main diseases affecting spinach plants.
Mulch – To keep moist soil and prevent your spinach plant from weeds, mulch lightly (but not too much) with grass clippings or straw.
