How To Grow Rainbow Chard From Seed: Sow the seeds directly outside in prepared drills. The drills should be 20cm apart. Sprinkle the seeds thinly into the drill. Cover with soil and keep damp.

After the seedlings establish, thin them out to leave a spacing of 15cm between plants. The leaves of the thinned plants can be eaten as the baby leaves. Chard baby leaves can be picked and eaten in as little as 4 weeks.

When Rainbow Chard is fully mature, pick the outside stalks as you need them, to keep the plants producing more leaves and stalks.

Seed count is approximate.
