How to Grow Swiss Chard
Swiss chard is planted from spring to fall. Sow 3-4 seeds about 1cm deep in a sunny, well-drained location. Once the seedlings have 2-3 true leaves, thin them down to a single plant. The main tasks are watering and top-down fertilization. Harvest takes approximately 1.5 months.
Preparation for Cultivation
Before starting Swiss chard cultivation, you should prepare the tools and soil, prepare the soil, and create rows in the cultivation area.
Sowing Seeds
The seed coat of Swiss chard seeds contains a germination inhibitor, so soaking them in water for 2-3 hours before sowing will promote uniform germination. Sow seeds 1cm apart and 5-10mm deep.
Thinning
When sown in rows, thin the seeds for the first time when all the true leaves have emerged. From the second thinning onwards, thin them when the leaves are touching each other.
Planting Seedlings
If you're having trouble growing Swiss chard from seed, try growing seedlings from a garden center. Selecting sturdy seedlings is the key to successfully harvesting.
Watering
Swiss chard is drought-tolerant, so water only enough to prevent the leaves from wilting when the soil becomes noticeably dry. When growing outdoors, watering only when the soil surface becomes noticeably dry is sufficient.
Top Dressing
Swiss chard will grow well on its own with base fertilizer, but top dressing is recommended if stem and leaf growth is poor or if growing in a container.
Harvesting
For small plants to use in salads or other fresh dishes, harvest when they reach 15-20cm in height. From seed, harvesting takes approximately 45 days if sown in spring and approximately 60 days if sown in autumn.
Disease Control
Pests that Swiss chard is susceptible to include downy mildew and bacterial black spot. Because it is resistant to disease, it does not cause significant damage. To prevent pest damage, carefully inspect the leaves daily for signs of feeding, and remove any pests as soon as possible.
