Yin tsai (water spinach) galore

We planted yin tsai (water spinach) in two ways: from the stems and from the seeds. We bought yin tsai in Chinese grocery store in mid June. After eating the leaves, we put the stems in the water and planted them when the roots came out.

The first attempt to plant the seeds was met with no success. Katy came up with a good idea by immersing the seeds in the water for a day or two before planting. It was a resounding success. We then transplanted them at an optimal time. It ended up with more than a dozen “yin tsai zones” scattered all over the garden.
