Time to plant spinach,
other above-grounds
The 10th of Feb. is the new
moon progressing to the full
moon and time for planting
above-the-ground crops.
One of my favorites is spin-
ach. Often referred to as
"packed with iron," spinach is
more loaded with vitamin A and
C, potassium, thiamin and fo-
lic acid (a vitamin B complex).
Spinach also contains carote-
noids lutein and zeaxathin, and
it is generally just plain tasty
and good for you.
The two types being, smooth
leaf, or Savoy with darker crin-
kled leaves.
The Savoy is harder to clean
so I like the smooth leaf better
for home use. The popular "baby
spinach" is not immature, but a
variety that simply grows small
leaves 0nly.
Work soil into a small row
and mix fireplace ash or potash
with a little commercial fertiliz-
er, 8-8-8 or less. Water until wet
all the way down and let ground
set until the new moon.
I plant six inches apart,
twice as deep as the seeds are
long, and in 4-6 weeks you are
harvesting an endless supply
of fresh spinach. If you cut the
outer leaves off and don't pull
the plant, they will produce un-
til the weather gets too hot.
At this point the plants go to
seeding.
Take the abundant leaves
and stuff into a sealable freez-
er bag, pushing the air out,
and microwave for 60 sec-
onds, let cool and store in
freezer for up to six months.
