LOL!

Another herb grower sees female spinach flowers for the first time. I get at least one call a year on this. They really can resemble buds on a pot plant.

Spinach is a predominantly dioecious plant (has separate male and female plants), like pot. Sometimes it will throw hermies like pot. There are also monoecious lines of spinach, like hemp. Scientists use spinach to study the genetic factors in sex determination in dioecious plants.

The one big difference is that pot is short-day triggered to flower, spinach is long-day.

That's right.

Then, if you wanted to make seed for the next run, flower in your veg room.

hey man i have the exact same thing !!
Mine right now is about the same level as the one in the pics
btw i have read that spinachs are kind of a winter type of plants so that may be the reason for the early flowers
and its a bit wierd cause back when igrew ganja when she was at this level she already had smell from the type like you could smell her from a meter away, and this one - even when i put my nose touching the flowers no smell whats o ever...
anyway did u tried to smoke it or something ? Got anything good out of it ?
