Yes, it is advisable to prune or remove the flowers on spinach plants if you want to extend the harvest period. Flowering signals the plant to shift energy from leaf production to seed formation, which can lead to a decline in leaf quality and quantity. By preventing bolting through pruning, you can encourage the plant to focus on growing more leaves for a longer time. However, if you want to collect seeds, allowing the flowers to develop is necessary.
