You do not have to have a big garden to grow some veggies - a balcony garden can provide you with some of your favourites.
Spinach grows easily and will provide you with fresh green leaves to cook or use in salads - and it is so good for you.
A good fertile, well drained soil in a sunny position is all you need to produce spinach that will keep growing throughout the year.
I've already started planning out Garden 2018... lol
I am making a container garden roughly 6ftx6ft all for my greens. Arugula, spinach, etc.
Hoping all my plans work out for next year too. I had difficulty with growing spinach this year when I took out of greenhouse. If I had a bigger greenhouse, I'd leave the greens in there but... yeah.
I'd love to grow indoors and have fresh greens all year round.

I've found spinach and lettuces too prone to bolting on my balcony. I guess I get too much sun.
What's worked well for me is herbs (basil, oregano, thyme, mint, etc.), vines (tomatoes and vining spinach) and hot/sweet pepper bushes.

Irregular watering can cause plants to bolt - plants in containers like spinach and lettuce need to be kept moist if in a hot area.

Thinking back, that's probably exactly why it happened. Thanks for the tip!
