Notes

Planted 2 in earthbox on north-facing balcony.

2014-11-09: Planted 2 with lemon tree on south-facing balcony.

2014-11-28: Planted 2 more in earthbox on north-facing balcony.

2014-01-09: Returned home after holiday travel to discover south-facing spinach had been completely eaten. North-facing spinach is doing great though.

2015-01-25: Harvested most of the spinach.

(We actually got another round of spinach out of some of the plants a few months after the date I've marked this as harvested.)

Experimental: this feature is new and might be flaky. These dates are estimates from 25 km weather-model data, not readings from a station at your garden, so a cold spot can be colder. They may be wrong, so check your national weather service and ask local growers before relying on them.
