Spinach - Beet Perpetual

This is an easy, reliable and milder alternative to spinach, which is very fast and easy to grow, cropping for much of the year.

Sow outdoors thinly, from March to July, where they are to crop, 2.5cm deep, directly into finely-prepared, well-drained, fertile soil, which has already been watered. Allow 40cm between rows. Early sowings may benefit from cloche protection. Seedlings usually appear in 7-21 days. Water well until plants are established. Thin out to 15cm apart. 1 or 2 further sowings will ensure a continuous supply of leaves. Harvest from June to October. Pick a few leaves at a time, without stripping plants. Give cloche protection from October onwards to encourage cropping into the winter months.
