Regular potato is a definate no-no. They are toxic to guinea pigs. Sweet potato is ok but maybe once/twice a month at most.
Pigs should get no more than the equivalent of one baby carrot per day as they are high in A and oxalic acid.
I am not a fan of spinach for pigs at all because it's through the roof in oxalic acid. Oxalic acid can bind with calcium and form oxalate stones.

Have you tried cilantro, kale, mustard/turnip/collard greens? Cilantro can be fed daily and you can look at my charts for how often to feed the rest. |
