Uteusha spinach is sown in October - November with dry seeds, but in well-prepared soil to a depth of 1.5-2 cm. For the convenience of your own and for space, plants should be 40-50 cm apart, and leave 12-15 cm between plants after breaking through Of course, spinach can also be sown in early spring, but then the most important thing is lost - early production. The rate of seed sowing per 1 acre is 1 tablespoon.

With a sufficient amount of moisture and suitability of seeds, seedlings appear on day 6-7. In the first year of life, it is impossible to mow. This will lead to poor overwintering and exhaustion. Care during this period is reduced to mulching and removing excess weeds. Starting from the second and subsequent years of life in spring, simultaneously with the melting of snow, the basal rosette of leaves begins to grow very vigorously and 4-6 generative shoots develop from the buds on the root neck, on which inflorescences are formed. In the green mass, leaves account for 37-45%.
