It’s best to choose a location that is near a water source, as water spinach needs a lot of moisture to thrive. • Prepare the soil: Before planting, prepare the soil by adding compost or organic matter. Water spinach prefers slightly acidic soil with a pH between 6.0 and 7.0. • Plant the seeds: Water spinach can be grown from seeds or cuttings. Plant the seeds about 1 inch deep and 6 inches apart. Keep the soil moist until the seeds germinate. • Provide plenty of water: As the name suggests, water spinach needs a lot of water to grow. Keep the soil moist at all times, but be careful not to overwater, as this can lead to root rot. • Fertilize regularly: Water spinach is a heavy feeder and requires regular fertilization. Use a balanced fertilizer every 2-3 weeks to provide the nutrients the plants need to grow. • Control pests and diseases: Water spinach can be susceptible to pests and diseases, such as aphids and leaf spot. Use organic pest control methods to keep these problems under control. • Harvest regularly: Water spinach grows quickly and can be harvested in as little as 3-4 weeks. Harvest the leaves and stems regularly to encourage new growth. Gardening for happiness! Treevale
