How to Care for Your Swiss Chard Plant Seeds
- Sowing Your Swiss Chard Seeds: Swiss chard is a cool-season crop that can be planted in early spring or late summer for fall harvest. For continuous harvest, sow seeds every 2-3 weeks.
- Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist, especially during dry periods. Water deeply at the base of the plants to encourage strong root growth.
- Fertilizing: : For continuous harvests, especially after cutting leaves, use a nitrogen-rich fertilizer to support leafy growth.
- Pest Control: Swiss chard is generally resistant to pests, but aphids, leaf miners, and slugs can occasionally be an issue. Use organic pest control methods like neem oil or hand-picking pests to manage infestations.
- Frost Tolerance: Swiss chard can tolerate light frosts and will continue growing into the fall. In regions with mild winters, you may even be able to overwinter the plants with some protection, such as a cold frame or row cover.
