h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

I've just planted some of this, you don't need to plant it in succession as it just keeps right on growing through the summer - you just harvest the leaves that are ready and leave the rest to keep growing

Don't know how it tastes yet, will post again when any of the seedlings are big enough to try a bit

my spinach all died

Mine is *still* growing Probably more of a sign of the weird weather we're having than the hardiness of the plant though...

nothing grew (edible, that is) in my garden this year

Kelli, are you still subscribed?

What variety of spinach do you plant? I'm about to start getting ready to plant again for this year, last year was a lot more successful and we really enjoyed eating it in salads.

I can't remember, but it clearly said 'Perpetual Spinach' on the packet so readily identifiable

We went to the allotment for the first time in about 2 months at the weekend - we still have cabbages and sprouts despite the snow!
