Linda says: Swiss chard has the ability to regulate the blood sugar levels in our body.

With its ornamental leaves and stems, it looks just as good in containers as borders as in the organic vegetable garden. They are heavy feeders so like a rich soil. Very healthy to eat, as a wonderful antioxidant and provider of Vitamin K. The leaves make a lovely addition to stir fries and soups and very young, tender leaves are great in salads. For balcony gardens grown in a pot 35-40cm in depth and diameter, or larger

Growing tips:
Saw seeds in a well prepared bed with added organic compost. As seedlings begin to grow, if you have sown seed densely, thin out the plants so that they are 25-30cm apart. Water well after thinning. Keep and eye for pests, although this is an easy vegetable to grow and look after. Sow seeds every few weeks for a continuous crop that will see you through the year, with just little protection.

HARVEST: 8-10 weeks
