Hi, everyone! This is my first year growing my own produce and I was wondering if it’s about time to harvest my spinach. They do look like they have the potential to get a little bigger but it looks like some leaves are checking out early.  
🤔 What do you think?  
Also, I would just give them a snip at the base, right? And another round should sprout?  
(two different pots)

You can also harvest individual leaves as the plant grow to get more of a continuous harvest 🙂

They are pretty big, I would just take the individual leaves. Then, the leaves will grow back and so on. Do not just cut the whole plant.
