| Swiss Chard
As soon as the ground can be worked in the spring, lay rows 18 to 24 inches apart. Sow the seed immediately and cover with an inch of soil. Thin to allow four or five inches between plants. Harvest when plants reach seven to nine inches tall, using the outer leaves first to always have young and tender leaves. Swiss chard will winter over in milder areas. |
