Cultivation Advice – Swiss Chard – Fire Fresh F1
- Direct sow outdoors from March to August after the soil has warmed in your location.
- Best grown in a well prepared, moist, fertile seedbed in full sun or partial shade.
- Sow seeds thinly at a depth of 1 cm (½”) in drills 30 cm (12″) apart.
- Start harvesting early thinning seedlings to 7 cm (3″) apart for ‘baby leaves’ which will be fully ready to harvest approximately 50 days from sowing.
- For mature plants continue to thin to 15 cm (6″) apart, or 23 cm (9″) for mature plants.
