Farming Simulator 25: Time for Spinach
Full of nutrients, presumably of ancient Persian origin, the subject of a culinary myth for its (actually not-so-high) iron content, and Popeye’s favorite: Spinach! It’s also coming to Farming Simulator 25. Let’s look at the leafy green crop, as it offers some unique things to keep in mind in your virtual fields.
New crops: Spinach
Spring and Summer are spinach seasons. In March or April, you take your seeder and put out about 10 liters of seed per hectare, expecting a yield of about 23100 liters in return. With an average selling price of $660 per thousand liters, you must be ready to harvest in June. Remember that you need a specialized harvester here—the OXBO MKB-4TR.
Sow Once, Harvest Twice
If you’re not wasting time, you can harvest spinach twice a season. To do that, you have to sow it right in March, wait for it to mature, harvest it right away in June, and watch it grow again. Don’t forget to apply your usual yield improvement, like with other crops.
If you do everything right and in time, you’ll see the growth stages that slightly differ in the second cycle. As is common among crops like spinach, the first growth stage after harvesting it the first time appears a bit more bushy. This helps you keep track of all your spinach fields more easily.
And remember the words of one of our favorite sailors: You’re strong to the finish ’cause you eat your spinach. Well, harvest it at least and sell it before it withers, will you?
