Prolific gardener here; I have never once successfully grown spinach, despite many attempts. There are tons of different greens species out there; once your garden is filled with endive, chicory, lambs lettuce, mizuna, beet greens, turnip greens, and a million different varieties of mustard, lettuce, and kale, you won’t even remember that spinach exists.
We have had ok success with kale. We’re just operating in really limited space, so we mostly stick with the things we know will grow (aka the stupid zucchinis and lots of tiny onions, plus a few tomatillos). I’m hoping we can add more beds in a couple of years to add more greens.
We garden and mostly what we get are 78943749832 zucchinis and 1 spinach leaf. I think maybe I’m not cut out for it.

huh, spinach didn’t give a single shit about be neglecting it on the balcony in tiny pots, grew great
I have many spinach leaves in my garden.
They’re about the same size as a grain of corn and have been for a month :(
