How to Grow:

  2. Germination: Keep the soil consistently moist until germination occurs, typically within 7-14 days.
  3. Thinning: Once seedlings develop a few true leaves, thin them to the recommended spacing to promote healthy growth.
  4. Care: Water regularly, particularly during dry spells, and apply a balanced fertiliser to encourage robust leaf development.
  5. Harvesting: Begin harvesting leaves when they are large enough to eat, typically 8-10 weeks after sowing. Cut the outer leaves while allowing the inner leaves to continue growing for a sustained harvest.

Enjoy the beautiful colours and nutritious benefits of D.T. Brown Chard Bright Lights in your meals, bringing both flavour and visual appeal to your dishes while experiencing the joy of growing your own greens.
