Heirloom New Zealand Spinach Seeds (3g)
New Zealand is not a true spinach, but can be used in just the same way. Plus, it's more resistant to bolting during the hot summer months than regular spinach! This variety actually thrives in hot weather.
Our New Zealand Spinach seeds are 100% heirloom.
Plants are large and hardy, and leaves are small and fleshy. The average plant-to-harvest time is 65 days.
Heirloom New Zealand Spinach Seeds Planting Instructions
Grow your own spinach with these easy-to-follow instructions:
- Location – Choose a site with full sun or light shade and well-drained soil.
- Sowing – Sow seeds 1/2 an inch to 1 inch deep, covering lightly with soil.
- Quantity – Sow about 12 seeds per foot of row, or sprinkle over a wide row or bed.
- Temperature – Soil should not be warmer than 70°F for successful germination.
- Replanting – Make successive plantings every couple of weeks during early spring.
- Summer Harvest – Note that common spinach cannot grow in midsummer. Consider New Zealand Spinach or Malabar Spinach for a summer harvest.
- Fall Crop – Plant in mid-August, ensuring soil temperatures are cool.
Heirloom New Zealand Spinach Seeds Harvesting Instructions
Harvesting your spinach is an important part of the process:
- Monitoring – Keep an eye on your plants and harvest when leaves reach your desired size.
- Timeliness – Don't wait too long to harvest, or wait for larger leaves as bitterness can set in quickly after maturity.
- Harvesting Method – The whole plant can be harvested at once, cut at the base, or leaves may be picked off plants one layer at a time, allowing inner layers more time to develop.
Saving Seeds
Wind-pollinated spinach varieties must be isolated by 1/4 mile to prevent cross-pollination by the wind. Physical barriers such as tree lines, buildings, or woods may make it possible to use a shorter distance.
Allow plants to bolt and set seed. Some staking may be necessary as plants may reach 3 feet in height.
When seeds are dry, harvest the entire plant and thresh on a tarp. A 1/2-inch screen on top of a 1/4 inch and 1/8 inch is helpful for cleaning. Spinach seed remains viable for 3 to 5 years under cool and dry storage conditions.
