How to grow Spinach '7-green'

  • Full Sun

  • Medium

Try to plant in a location that enjoys full sun and remember to water moderately. Keep in mind when planting that 7-green is thought of as half hardy, so remember to protect this plant from frosts and low temperatures. 7-green needs a loamy soil with a ph of 6.0 to 7.0 (weakly acidic soil to neutral soil).

Growing 7-green from seed

Try to aim for a seed spacing of at least 3.12 inches (8.0 cm) and sow at a depth of around 0.49 inches (1.25 cm). Soil temperature should be kept higher than 8°C / 46°F to ensure good germination.

By our calculations, you should look at sowing 7-green about 60 days before your last frost date.

Transplanting 7-green

Ensure that temperatures are mild (minimum night temperatures should be around 0°C / 32°F) and all chance of frost has passed before planting out, as 7-green is a half hardy plant.
