Spinach planting

Old (exp. 2013) but hopefully still viable. One seed germinated inside so there is hope.

17 October: a few germinated. Hoping for more - hard to tell them apart from grass at this stage. (Later discovered baby leaves are thicker and more succulent than grass). Hoping patch is not too dry for them.

22 October: at least 5 spinach seedlings visible!

25 October: The first 5 seedlings have their first adult leaves now. A couple more of the seedlings emerging.

6 November: 11 plants! I hope they will not bolt. Should be able to take some salad leaves from the biggest 4 or 5 soon. Moved 5 small ones over to give the others some space; 4 are doing okay, think the last one may have been dug up by a bird. Very happy to have so many seedlings as only one out of many germinated in the seed tray "garden."
