    Hello

    This is probably a very naive question but, is it possible to grow baby spinach in containers and if so, what time of year. Am fed up buying it in the supermarkets to discover that it is wilting and sometimes soggy. Would love to be able to grow my own. Any thoughts?

    Thanks

    There's quite a few things that are classed as Spinach. Basically a salad green that is better cooked.

    Everything from Beetroot leaves, Orache, Fat Hen, Leaf Beet, Chard etc.

    You can grow most of them in containers and just pick while they're young.
