Germination takes 7-14 days in cool soil (15-25°C); soaking seed overnight speeds it up. Keep moisture steady to prevent bolting. First leaves are ready in 30-45 days; harvest outer leaves or cut the whole rosette 3-4 cm above soil for regrowth. Sow in succession every 2-3 weeks through winter for a continuous supply. Warm weather makes plants bolt, so grow mainly in the cool season in the plains.\u0026lt;\/p\u0026gt;\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhen is the best time to sow spinach (palak) in India?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eSow from October to February in the plains for a cool-season crop, as warm weather causes bolting.

A 6-8 inch deep container or grow-bag with rich, moist soil works well. Sow thickly, keep it watered, and snip leaves as needed for a fresh balcony harvest.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"vedicflora","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51054343323894,"sku":"SED-VEG-SPINACH-002","price":29.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0805\/4980\/6326\/files\/nurserylive-seeds-spinach-all-green-desi-vegetable-seeds-16969342189708.jpg?v=1782716009","url":"https:\/\/vedicflora.com\/products\/spinach-seeds-3","provider":"vedicflora","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
