In planting, to vegetable growth, spinach seedlings should not be too dense, to prevent the single weight is small, overcrowded, leaf growth is not big, and the petiole is long. And seedling transplanting is labor intensive in the early stages, but when it comes to management it's easy.
If you're judging transplant timing by growing a leafy tree, the best time to transplant is when your spinach seedlings have three to four leaves, and seedlings that are too big or too small can affect transplant success. Of the spinach seedlings that can be transplanted, yields will increase by nearly one-third after transplanting.
