Spinach question
« on: September 24, 2011, 19:43:36 »
Hi everyone, I was planning to sow some winter spinach tomorrow in raised beds at my allotment but the weather forecast says we are in for a bit of a heatwave here in Kent this September (today was hottest autumn day since the 1980's!).....will the unseasonal heat be a problem for germination? Should I wait until it is colder? Thanks for any thoughts x Jane

Shouldn't be a problem at all, probably an advantage. The heat won't last but it will get them off to a good start.
