spinach

[darkcrystal]

im growing some spinach and it looks like it needs re potting now, can i re pot it in a long planter because i have no ground to put it in.

and also im growing leaf salad and that needs re potting to can i do the same with that too?

i have the packet and it says "take the first "clipping" with sciccors 14-20 days from sowing" what does that mean?

it means start cutting as its probably cut and come again....

I have my spinach and salad leaves in window boxes

Make sure you keep them well watered - if they get dry they are much more likely to bolt (to flower and run to seed)

I hate spinach so this year I'm growing swiss chard which is similar but much nicer and a very quick cropper. If you get the rainbow variety it also looks pretty!

[darkcrystal]

where can you get swiss chard from????? do you have to get it from proper garderning shops?

You buy seeds, DC. From almost anywhere that you can buy seeds from, it's not uncommon.
