- Grows vigorously through Indian summer when regular palak fails.
- Thick, glossy leaves great in sabzi, soups, dal, and stir-fries.
- Grow it organically in Ugaoo's Veggie Mix Soil, chemical-free greens all summer long.
Approx. seeds per gram: 27
Sowing

- Keep soil moist during this period.
- Once sprouts appear, move to a spot with direct morning sun.
Transplanting
NA - Malabar Spinach grows best with direct sowing.
Growing
- Needs 5–6 hours of sunlight daily. It handles partial shade in peak summer.
- Water regularly to keep soil consistently moist. Malabar Spinach loves moisture.
- Use a pot or grow bag with drainage holes.
- Space plants 30–40 cm apart.
- Feed with cow manure every 15 days. Use neem cake and neem oil spray to keep pests away.

Aftercare & Post-Harvest
- Malabar Spinach slows down in cooler months. Keep it warm and it will keep growing.
- Once growth slows significantly with dropping temperatures, pull the plant and sow fresh when it warms up again.
- Save some seeds from mature pods for re-sowing.
Harvesting
- Leaves and tender shoot tips are ready in 40–70 days.
- Snip the top 10–15 cm of the vine. The plant will branch and produce more shoots.
- Harvest regularly; the more you cut, the more it produces.
- You can harvest Malabar Spinach continuously for several months.

Frequently asked questions
How do you germinate spinach seeds quickly?
To speed up spinach seed germination, soak your Malabar Spinach seeds in water for 12–24 hours before planting—this softens the seed coat and gives them a head start. Start them in a cool (15–20°C), well-draining medium like Coco Peat, keep them consistently damp, and in just 6-8 days, you'll see them sprout! Quick tip: don’t plant too deep—just ½ inch is perfect!
How long to soak Malabar spinach seeds?
Soak Malabar spinach seeds for 24 hours in warm water to soften their hard seed coat and boost germination. These tropical climbers can be a bit slow to sprout, so a good soak gives them the head start they need. After soaking, plant in warm, moist soil and watch the magic begin in just 6-8 days!
What is the germination time of saag seeds?
Poi saag (Malabar spinach) seeds usually germinate in 6-10 days but can take a little longer sometimes. They’re a bit slow to wake up, so soaking the seeds in warm water for 24 hours before planting helps. Sow them in cool, moist soil that is perfectly balanced with a mix of perlite, coco peat, cow manure, and garden soil. This will help ensure perfect drainage and aeration, allowing the seeds more space to sprout and grow! Patience pays off—your lush, leafy climbers are on their way!
What makes spinach grow faster?
To make your Spinach grow faster, give it cool weather, rich, well-draining soil, and consistent moisture. Add a boost of organic fertilizers like Cow Manure or Vermicompost to fuel leafy growth. Remember—sow seeds in full sun to light shade, and don’t overcrowd—space is key! Harvest baby leaves early, and the plant will keep rewarding you with fresh, fast-growing greens!
