How to Grow Swiss Chard Microgreens - Full Walkthrough with TIPS & TRICKS - On The Grow

This is our step-by-step guide for growing PERFECT trays of Swiss Chard Microgreens with Tips & Tricks along the way!

Swiss chard microgreens are one of our favorites to grow, and are also one of the more fun crops because they have brightly colored stems in shades of Red, Orange, Pink and even Yellow! The biggest challenge with Swiss Chard is that their hard seed hulls make them a challenge to grow due to not coming off easily.. However we get great results in this video using the no soak method and we share everything we did along the way so that you can succeed with them too!

✅ Swiss Chard Microgreens have an earthy flavor that pairs well with dishes like tikka masala!!! We hope all the tips and tricks sprinkled throughout the video to help you grow microgreens at home or for your business! When making these videos, we take extra care to put out Youtube videos that have the most comprehensive, easy, and in-depth free Microgreens Tutorials that you can find on YouTube, as we do not hide any of our growing techniques, methods, or secrets and we try to be as transparent as we can.

**For different grow mediums such as grow mats or our reusable microgreen grow medium, different techniques may need to be used to get the exact results, so keep in mind that not all mediums are equal – however, this video will give you a great head start on learning!

And if you want to know even more in depth how to grow microgreens? Our newest book "Becoming a Microgreen Master" is NOW AVAILABLE!!

We also have MANY other full walk-through grow videos on our YouTube channel for various crop varieties! Thank y'all so much for the support!

I do love the red stems which contrasts with the green leaves - all that color means lots of vitamins! And the fact they taste like beets is a winner to me. Cannot wait to see the radishes as the different colored stems look beautiful!

[treasuretreereynolds]

It is said that we eat with our eyes first. What vibrant and beautiful color that Swiss Chard has! I finally bought some supplies to start experimenting with growing MG’s! My hubby is watching your video as we speak and is asking questions. He’s so on board with my decision to have a small business. Have been taking notes. Thank you so much for taking the time to teach!
Y’all are so very awesome.
Will definitely buy some merch from you as soon as I can because we are truly, truly grateful.💜

I haven't been able to germinate swiss chard for an annual crop, for planting in my aquaponic system, You just germinated HUNDREDS! I'm so jealous.

[chrisgleeson]

THANKS for sharing all the points on what to move to next steps, I bought about 15 microgreens stays with blackout tops, I got some radish /kale /arugula /broccoli seed pounds, sounds like good way get lots of nutrients on a KETO diet with less bulk carbs, to treat my prediabeties score, so I dont get diabetes hopefully.GOD BLESS, GOOD WORK.

Love y'alls videos. You two are my go-to for microgreen instruction. I've got my first full rack going. For some reason, I have to water like 3-4x what y'all water when they're under light. Anything less and they just get too dry. We're in north Texas, so maybe it's just a lot drier.

[GINASUMMERS]

I absolutely love the details in all of your videos!!! You guys are awesome!!!!

[lindahipple]

[russellwrye]

I like y'alls videos. I stumbled on this randomly. I like that you show the whole process.

[mariafolch]

I wish you did a close up of the seed 'haul' you mentioned at 26:48, so I could see what it looked like.

[diynevala]

I know I should be concentrating on the greens, but you are just so beautiful. You both are, and the content is top notch as well!

[zaragaming]

You have the whole question in one video, the most details video about microgreen! Keep it up! 🌻

[AlteredState]

Thanks for the walk through. When it comes to success, the little tricks and details matter!

[paulking]

Great tip on the extra soil or coco cor and firmly pushing it down. My first crop failed due to the seed shell...
Cheers!!!

This is so valuable. Thanks to my daughter, Jennifer for enlightening me about the microgreens. Happy dance

Isn't hydroponic easier? I find myself avoiding extra work lately, as I'm almost 84, but want to grow microgreens the easiest way possible. It also saves money if you don't have to use trays, soil, etc. I know you can sprout broccoli seeds in a bowl of water, which requires repeated rinsing, but the end result is very good. I have sprouted beans in mason jars. They were delicious with plain yogurt or sour cream, as well as in salads or on a sandwich or in soup. I want to grow salad greens, like nasturtium, radish, and other small, leafy greens. Thanks for bringing this opportunity to all who love being healthy and eating delicious, nutritious food even when the stores are out of stock.
