Hello friends
today I share about the process of planting spinach and caring for good spinach seeds
Prepare quality plant seeds
When you are going to garden or plant spinach you should first prepare quality seeds. how to get quality seeds is very easy especially spinach seeds. You can get a quality one by buying it at an agricultural seed shop. Buy spinach seeds or seeds directly
After you buy spinach seeds, soak the seeds with the aim of determining quality seeds. If the seeds that you soak float, the seeds are of poor quality, and vice versa if the seeds sink means the quality is good and will grow well when planted
Do seedling seedlings on seedling media
After all are ready to do seed seeding. Seeds can be seeded in seedling or rockwool media or directly in the polybag. Do seeding on the media you want. With one media seedling one spinach seed if using rockwool media
If you use a polybag you can plant 5 - 10 seeds in a medium sized medium polybag seedling. Do regular watering at least 2 times in 1 day. Watering is done depending on the need for spinach to water. If the weather is cloudy and the rainy season doesn't flush too often
Transfer of spinach seeds to larger growing media
After the seeds have grown and are more than two weeks old, you can move them to the main growing medium, large or medium polybags with 2-3 seeds in each polybag. Do regular watering in the morning and evening if the weather is hot. If the rainy season reduces the frequency of watering so the spinach does not die
treatment of spinach plants
If your spinach plants have started to grow well, do not forget to take care. The usual treatment is to provide fertilizer and treatment to maintain plant growth and fertility. Fertilizers used are usually types of manure to add soil nutrients
In addition, care is also needed for the growth of wild plants such as weeds or other plants that interfere with the main plants. So that nutrients from the soil and fertilizers and other medicinal plants are not shared with these wild plants and the growth of your spinach can be maximized
