Spinacia ‘Matador’ 3G

Matador Spinach is a robust, slow-bolting variety with dark, tender leaves ideal for fresh salads, cooking, and nutritious smoothies. It thrives in well-drained soil and full to partial sun, providing a steady harvest throughout the growing season. Its reliable growth, rich flavor, and heat tolerance make it a favorite for home gardeners seeking a versatile leafy green.

• Season of Interest: Late spring through early summer; harvest in 28-48 days
• Light Requirements: Full Sun to Part Sun (6 to 6+ Hours)
• Soil Requirements: Prefers moist, loamy soil with a pH of 6.5–7.0; benefits from consistent moisture and nitrogen-rich amendments; avoid waterlogged, compacted, or overly dry soils which can cause premature bolting and reduced leaf production.
