I use Sutton's Tomato feed - (50gm pack to make up to 900 litres of
food by mixing with water - good value).

I recently made too much up and used it to "water" some perpetual
spinach and also beet root.

However - I have noticed on some plants of both species that some
parts of some leaves are going brown.

Surely this cannot be because I actually fed them with the stuff-
perhaps I caught/wet the leaves when I watered the food on - would
this explain?

Tomato feed is designed to get tomatoes to flower and fruit and neither of
those things do you want spinach or beetroot to do.
It would have been better used on your flowers.
