To plant Viroflay spinach seeds, choose a location with well-drained soil and partial shade to full sun. Prepare the soil by loosening it to a depth of about 6 inches and incorporating compost or aged manure for added nutrients. Sow the seeds directly into the soil, planting them about 1/2 inch deep and spacing them 4 to 6 inches apart in rows or a grid pattern. Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged during the germination period, which typically takes 7 to 14 days. Once the seedlings emerge, thin them to maintain a final spacing of about 6 to 8 inches apart to allow room for growth.
