- WHEN TO SOW: Sow Indoors Jan-Dec / Outdoors Mar-May
- SOW INDOORS: All year round for indoor crops and March to May for outdoor crops. Sow 0.5cm deep, in small pots of compost. Water well and place in a warm position. A temperature of 15-20°C is ideal. seedlings usually appear in 14-21 days. Grow on in cooler, but not cold conditions. Gradually accustom plants to outside conditions (avoid frosts), before planting out 20cm apart. Alternatively plants can be grown on a light windowsill. SOW OUTDOORS: For ease, where they are to crop, 0.5cm deep directly into finely prepared soil which has already been watered. Thin seedlings to 20cm apart. Harvesting: Harvest by cutting leaves once 15cm tall, (outdoor crops from June). Pick a few leaves from each plant so they regrow quickly.
- TOP TIP: If you are short of space chives are decorative enough to be grown in flower borders or pots on the patio, it is a rewarding and long lived herb.
