How much water dose a spinach plant need to grow?

In: Food & Cooking [Edit categories]

Answer:

1 - 2 inches of water each week especially from mid June to mid August. Too little water will not let plant roots grow deep and strong enough to gather nutrients for good growth. Too much water will saturate the soil, not allowing the plant air and space needed to grow. For best results it is important to know how much water your plants are getting. Observe your vegetables, get to know your soil conditions, keep an eye on the weather and learn which plants need more water than others. Is this sounding too complicated? Here is an easy way to measure how much water your garden is getting. Watering Measuring Tip
Place a small can in 4 different areas
of your garden, turn on the overhead
sprinkler for 1 hour and then measure
the amount of water in your cans
