Key Questions Answered
Land should be plowed and prepared into beds measuring 6 feet long and 4 feet wide, where 10 kg of farmyard manure and a solution of 1 kg of Ghanajeevamirtham are applied. Seeds begin germinating on the third day after sowing.
Amaranth, Sirukeerai, and Thandukeerai are ready for harvest within 22 to 30 days. Since Sirukeerai and Thandukeerai are single-harvest types, they are pulled out by the roots, after which the soil is tilled, rested for 15 days, and re-sown. Amaranth and Palak Keerai are re-growth types, with amaranth harvested about 10 times at 20-day intervals and Palak Keerai 30 times at 15-day intervals.
Pest problems can be reduced by planting one marigold plant every 10 feet in the spinach field and on the bunds, and if pests are observed, Agni Asthram solution should be sprayed.
