Why choose Viking Spinach

• Dense, uniform foliage for generous harvests and an attractive presentation in your dishes.
• Culinary versatility: ideal in salads, stir-fries, quiches, or green smoothies to boost your iron and vitamin intake.
• Cultivation adapted to various environments: optimal performance in the ground as well as in pots on a balcony or terrace.
• Continuous harvesting thanks to regular growth that allows for successive cuttings without frequent replanting.

How to sow and care for

• Choose a sunny to partially shaded location, with cool, well-drained soil, enriched with compost.
• Sow in rows spaced approximately 25 to 30 cm apart. Disperse seeds every 2 to 3 cm and lightly cover with 0.5 to 1 cm of soil.
• Water regularly to keep the soil moist without over-watering, to avoid water stress and fungal diseases.
• Thin if necessary to leave 8 to 15 cm between plants depending on the desired leaf size; light mulching is recommended to retain moisture and limit weeds.
• Protect from slugs and aphids using preventive methods (physical barriers, crop rotation, and regular observation).

Harvesting, storage, and uses

Viking spinach quickly reaches a harvestable size. Pick young leaves for a milder taste and crunchy tenderness, or let the plants grow for larger leaves. Harvesting is recommended in cooler seasons to enjoy tender, flavorful foliage.

Practical tips:

• Cut leaves approximately 2 to 3 cm above the ground to encourage rapid regrowth.
• Harvest regularly to maintain continuous production throughout the season.
• Store fresh leaves in the refrigerator in a perforated bag for up to 3 days; for longer storage, blanch quickly then freeze.
• Perfect in crunchy salads, omelets, quiches, stir-fries, and nutrient-rich green smoothies.

Ideal for whom and when to use it

Those who grow vegetables at home look for reliability and ease. Viking Spinach is particularly suited for urban gardeners, gourmet families, and those who want a quick and accessible source of fresh vegetables throughout the year in temperate climates. Plan staggered sowings in spring and autumn for continuous production and meals rich in greens, without compromising on taste or texture.

Store seeds in a cool, dry place to preserve their viability and easily prepare your next sowings. By choosing VEGETABLE SEEDS - SPINACH - VIKING, you are opting for a reliable variety that transforms every vegetable garden into a sustainable source of freshness and flavor.
