Known for its beautiful colours and amazing flavours, Swiss Chard Microgreens is popular as a culinary garnish around the world. Besides the eye-catching hues and intricate texture of Swiss Chard Microgreens, the high levels of Beta-carotene, vitamin C, & E, Zinc, Manganese & Betalain pigments are beneficial for detoxification of the body and in promoting healthy bones. Contrary to what the name indicates, Swiss Chard originated in the Mediterranean region and the prefix Swiss was added to distinguish it from local French spinach. It is recommended to grow Swiss Chard Microgreens in a soil based medium. After harvesting, the colourful leaves and stems of Swiss Chard Microgreens will make a great accompaniment to peppers, artichokes, cream, cheese, basil, rocket and most grain-based recipes.
Planting instructions
Use a flat tray or a garden pot with a depth of 4 - 5 inches. Fill it up with potting or garden soil and mix in some manure or vermicompost. Sprinkle the seeds evenly and densely on the soil and cover them with a thin layer of soil.
Let the seeds germinate for at least 3-4 days in the shade. Once the seeds have matured into seedlings, expose them to sunlight and air by placing them either in the balcony or the kitchen on a window sill.
Fill it with potting soil and spread seeds on the surface, covering them with a thin layer of soil.
Allow the plant to germinate for 4-5 days.
Growing Requirements
soil
Fresh garden soil, free of any impurities or pebbles. Mix the soil with 30% manure or vermicompost for best results.
spot
4 to 5 hours of good sunlight
watering
Regular watering; Do not splash water on the seeds directly. Keep the soil moist using a watering can or spray bottle. Water your microgreens twice a day, depending upon the room temperature.
how to harvest
These tiny leafy greens are the best because they are fast-growing and are ready to be harvested within a mere 7-12 days. These plants can grow up to 3 inches tall but can be harvested earlier as well, depending upon your requirements. Use a sharp knife or scissors to cut the shoots just above the soil surface without damaging the roots.
Keep the soil dry 4-5 hours before harvesting the shoots. Don’t harvest immediately after watering the plants. Rinse the shoots with warm water before immediate consumption. Or you can even store them in the refrigerator in an air-tight container. But, microgreens lose their nutritional value over time, so it is advisable to consume them immediately after harvesting.
To grow the next batch of microgreens, decompose the used soil, collect fresh soil in a container, and repeat the same planting process.
Wash the microgreens post harvest and they are ready to eat. Swiss Chard microgreens can be generously used with peppers, artichokes, cream, cheese, basil, rocket and most grain-based recipes
