Frequently Asked Questions

Spinach is easy to grow and maintain, making it a great choice for gardens and pots. Here are some common questions about growing spinach.

How long does spinach take to grow?

Spinach typically takes 4–6 weeks to reach maturity from seeds. With ideal conditions, you can start harvesting spinach leaves as early as 4 weeks after planting, especially if growing fast-growing varieties.

Will spinach grow back after cutting?

Yes, spinach regrows after cutting, making it a fantastic option for continuous harvesting. Just trim the outer leaves and allow the centre to keep producing new growth throughout the season.

What is the best month to plant spinach?

In Australia, autumn and early spring are the ideal months to plant spinach, as it prefers cooler temperatures. Planting during the autumn months helps spinach thrive before the heat of summer.

What is the secret to growing spinach successfully?

The key to growing healthy spinach is keeping the soil moist and rich in organic matter. In warmer climates, plant spinach in a spot with partial shade and feed regularly to support leafy growth and a robust crop. Learn more in our Melbourne planting guide.
