The root system of spinach is red, with a few being white, and it contains a fair amount of juice. The spinach leaves are emerald green, tender and fine, and look very glossy.
Spinach is very tolerant of cold, and its seeds can germinate even at a low temperature of 4°C, but generally a temperature of 15 to 25°C is suitable for its growth.
Spinach requires a relatively large amount of water for growth, because the tissue of its leaves is relatively large, and only with sufficient water will it produce thick flesh, good quality and high yield. If it is kept for a long time under high temperature, drought and long hours of sunlight, its vegetative growth will be inhibited and bolting will occur, so growers must pay attention to this point of watering.
