Sowing

Timing: Plant Swiss Chard seeds in early spring or late summer for cooler climates.

Thinning: Once seedlings emerge, thin them to allow proper spacing for healthy growth.
Harvesting: Swiss Chard can be harvested when the leaves are mature, usually around 60 days after planting, by cutting outer leaves from the base to allow the inner leaves to continue growing for continuous harvest.
