Damage

Spinach leaves with black patches and mold are not appealing to eat. Sometimes the inner leaves of infected plants escape damage.

Prevention

  • Choose resistant varieties, which are widely available.
  • Make sure plants get good air circulation and plenty of sun.
  • Rotate spinach to a fresh site to prevent disease buildup.
  • Use mulch to keep soil from splashing onto plants during heavy rains.
  • Avoid using overhead irrigation methods
