Approx. 1000 seeds
Sow seeds directly to the garden in a rich, well prepared soil bed, 13mm (1/2") deep, 2.5cm (1") apart. Germination takes 7-10 days. Thin to strongest seedling. Keep moist and weed free. Water frequently to avoid plants drying out. Mulch to retain moisture and reduce competition from weeds.
Harvest the tops as you would spinach once plants are well established.
