How to grow Spinach 'Lazio'

  • Full Sun

  • Medium

Try to plant in a location that enjoys full sun and remember to water moderately. Lazio is generally regarded as a half hardy plant, so although it can survive a small mild cold snap, it is wise to ensure that this plant is protected from frost damage. Lazio needs a loamy soil with a ph of 6.0 to 7.0 (weakly acidic soil to neutral soil).

Growing Lazio from seed

Sow 0.49 inches (1.25 cm) deep with a guideline distance of 3.12 inches (8.0 cm). For optimal germination, soil temperature should be a minimum of 8°C / 46°F.

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

Transplanting Lazio

Lazio is half hardy, so ensure you wait until all danger of frost has passed in your area before considering planting outside - as a guideline, the minimum temperature outside should be approximately 0°C / 32°F.
