About This Variety
Meet This Variety
For a seasonal garden plan that starts with seed, Start Okinawa Spinach (Gynura bicolor) from seed for vegetable gardens. A site with full sun and fertile, well-drained soil supports steady early development.
As the seed-starting period begins, Sow in prepared growing medium when it reaches the recommended germination range. Keep the soil evenly moist while seedlings establish, then harvest when the crop reaches the appropriate stage for eating, with a steady routine focused on the establishment period after sowing.
