Do not eat treated seeds. **Seeds are freshly packed for the growing season of the year listed. Seeds are still viable beyond pack date. Store in a cool and dry location such as the refrigerator or basement to best preserve germination rates. Planting Instructions: Soil Preparation and Fertilizing: Swiss chard is a cool-season crop and does well in the cool temperatures of Spring and Fall. Swiss chard can tolerate a wide range of soils. To prepare the soil, clear the area of rocks, trash, and large sticks. Small pieces of grass and leaves can be mixed into the soil to make it richer. Spade the soil 8-10 inches deep and completely cover plant material. You may optionally scatter 1 cup of a complete fertilizer on the soil for each 10 feet of row to be planted. If soil has a lot of tight clay, you may optionally add compost after adding fertilizer and rake into top 4 inches of soil. Rake the soil until it is smooth and work the beds into 4-6-inch-tall raised ridges to allow soil to drain and let air enter soil. Planting: In southern states, swiss chard can be grown all winter. Soil temperature should be at least 50F for seeds to sprout. Use a hoe handle or stick to make a 1/2 inch furrow deep down the center of the ridge. Plant 1-2 seeds in the furrows spaced 12 inches apart within the rows. Cover lightly with loose soil then sprinkle with water. In hot weather, you may optionally cover seed with sands or light-colored mulch. Planting Depth: 1/2 inch Within-Row Spacing: 12 inches Between-Row Spacing: 2 -3 feet Care During the Season: Watering: Water plants moderately. If the soil moisture is low, water but avoid waterlogging soil. Try to avoid wetting foliage to prevent diseases. Weeding: Keep plants free of weeds, which rob weak root systems of nutrients and moisture. Thinning: Thin swiss chard plants to about 8-12 inches apart in rows if direct seeding. Insecticides: Insecticides may be used to protect plants. Bt-based insecticides and sulfur are organic options that can be used for prevention. Sevin is a synthetic option. Sulfur also has fungicidal properties and helps in controlling many diseases. Before using a pesticide, please read the label and always follow cautions, warnings and directions. Diseases: Disease can happen in cloudy, damp weather. Check plants daily and treat with an approved fungicide if diseases do appear. Neem oil, sulfur, and other fungicides are available for use. Please always follow label directions. Harvesting: Swiss chard are ready to harvest in 50-60 days after planting and can be harvested when they are about 4-5 inches long by cutting at the base. Try to avoid cutting the stems of the inner leaves. Leave the smaller leaves for a later harvest and keep the growing crown base intact. Harvest mature leaves to stimulate growth of new leaves.

HARVESTED AND PACKAGED BY HAND IN RESEALABLE AIR TIGHT BAGS (EACH BAG IS INDIVIDUALLY LABELED). ALL SEED LOTS ARE TEST Swiss chard comes in different colors, this variety is a multicolored rainbow. Also called five color silverbeet chard. Rainbow chard was sold by Thompson and Moran Seed co. in the early 1970s, but disappeared in the U. S. by the early 1980s. It was later discovered growing in Australia and introduced back to the market. Most folks grow this variety for the colors because they are amazing, but don’t forget how tasty it is also! Bright Lights Chard produces copious amounts of 18″-22″ leaves in a wide assortment of colors. Use the small leaves just like spinach! Stir fry the large leaves with garlic and chicken. Your dinner guest will be wowed by not only the colors, but the flavor. Remember to blanch the bigger leaves in a pot of boiling water with one tablespoon of salt for 5-10 minutes then drain. This virtually eliminates any of the bitter flavor you sometimes get in older leaves. Young leaves we use fresh in salads or veggie wraps. Bright Lights is an outstanding chard that can be over wintered with no problem. Yes, growth slows down, but we keep harvesting it right on through the year. This chard produces amazing colors in shades of red, purple, pink, orange, yellow and white. Delicious stir fried or as steamed greens. Good spinach substitute. Stalks can be eaten like celery.

Extra Long Luffa Squash Seeds | Smooth Loofah Snake Melon Asian Seed 2023
Extra Long Luffa Gourd is a hyper-elongated, forest-green smooth-skinned heirloom variety of the incredibly versatile luffa gourd. This heavy producer can grow gourds up to 3 feet long and 1 1/2-to-2 inches in diameter, with the incredible ability to dry into a sponge! Extra Long Luffa is highly productive, growing up to 15 gourds per plant on up to 30-foot vines. Grow on arches or fences for impressive twining, lush foliage, and yellow blossoms. In many parts of tropical Asia where luffa is grown year-round, it is an important crop for nutrition. Similar to cucumber or zucchini, luffa’s succulent, sweet, tender taste and flavor-absorbing properties lends itself well to stir-fries, soups, stews, and salads. When left to completely dry, luffa’s rind peels away like paper, leaving a dry and fibrous skeleton that can be used for crafting into luxurious natural sponges for exfoliating skin or for household cleaning. Also Known As: Luffa Gourd, Egyptian Cucumber, Vietnamese Luffa, Loofah Bitter Squash, Loofa Melon, Lufa, Chinese Okra, Chinese Cucumber, Chinese Zucchini, Silk Gourd, Se Qua, Sikwa, Sponge Gourd, Dishcloth Gourd, Vegetable Sponge, Cylinder Luffa, Hechima, Vegetable Sponge, Patola, Ridged Gourd, Luffs, Estropajo We ship in 1 business day. Shipped with USPS First Class Mail. Plant Name: Luffa Gourd, Extra Long (Smooth) Latin Name: Luffa aegyptiaca or Luffa cylindrica Days to Germinate: 7-14 Days to Harvest: 85 / 110-140 Germination Rate: 90% Test Date: 7/22 Growth Habit: Vining USDA Zones: 4-13 Lifespan: Annual, Perennial 9-13 Brand: TomorrowSeeds Sunlight: Full Sun, Partial Shade GMO: No Pollination: Heirloom, Open-Pollinated Fungicide-Treated Seeds*: No Seeds Packed For**: 2023 *Fungicide-treated seeds protect the seedlings from diseases until they are up and growing. Do not eat treated seeds. **Seeds are freshly packed for the growing season of the year listed. Seeds are still viable beyond pack date. Store in a cool and dry location such as the refrigerator or basement to best preserve germination rates. Planting Instructions: Soil Preparation: To prepare soil, remove weeds, large rocks, and litter from the planting area. Leave small weeds and dead grass, they will enrich the soil when turned under. Spade the soil 8-12 inches deep and turn each shovel of soil over completely to cover the plant materials with soil. You may add fertilizer (see “Fertilizing” below) or 2-3 inches of organic material such as compost, leaves, or rotted hay over the planting area at this point. Till to mix this organic material into the top 8-10 inches of soil. Make rows of soil beds 4-6 inches high or hills 12 inches high, surrounded by trenches. This formation of ridges will help with drainage. Prepare a vertical trellis sized 5-feet or larger for the planting area. Planting: Luffa Gourd thrives in hot climates, but can be started early indoors in temperate climates to yield mature gourds. Prepare seeds by soaking for 24 hours in warm water. Sow the soaked seeds indoors in small containers 3-4 weeks before the last average frost date in Spring, then harden off seedlings before transplanting. Or, directly sow the seeds outdoors in Spring after all danger of frost has passed and the soil is at least 70F. To plant, make 1 inch deep holes spaced 12 inches apart in raised beds down rows spaced 6 feet apart, or in hills spaced 6 feet apart, then plant 2 seeds in each hole. Cover thinly with soil and water after planting. After the seeds come up and plants are 3-4 inches tall, thin to 2 plants per hill. Luffa Gourd prefers humid climates and can grow up to 30 feet long vines. Trellising is recommended. Planting Depth: 1 inch Within-Row Spacing: 12 inches, trellis Between-Row Spacing: 6 feet Care During the Season: Watering: Water the plants enough to keep them from wilting. If the weather is really dry, plants should be watered at least once a week. Sandy soils need to be watered more often than heavy clay soils. Weeding: Keep plants as weed-free as possible. When plowing or hoeing try not to dig deeper than 1 inch to prevent from cutting the feeder rooters which may slow the plant’s growth. Fertilizing: You may optionally add scatter 2-3 pounds of a complete fertilizer for each 100 square feet of garden area. Work into the soil and leave the surface smooth. For small gardens, use 2-3 tablespoons of fertilizer for each hill. Scatter the fertilizer evenly over a 2 foot by 2 foot area. work it into the top 2-3 inches of soil. When blooms first appear, you may optionally apply 2 tablespoons of fertilizer around each hill. Do not let fertilizer touch the plants. Water the plants after fertilizing. Insecticides: Insecticides may be used to protect plants. Bt-based insecticides and sulfur are organic options that can be used for prevention. Sulfur also has fungicidal properties and helps in controlling many diseases. Before using a pesticide, read the label and always follow cautions, warnings and directions. Diseases: Check the plants daily and if spots or mold appear, treat the plant with an approved fungicide. Neem oil, sulfur, and other fungicides may be used. Please always follow label directions. Harvesting: Luffa Gourd for consumption is best harvested when 4-8 inches long, when the dark skin can be pierced with a fingernail, and the seeds are still soft and white. Luffa Gourd for sponge production may be left to fully mature on the vine until the skin is brown, dry and peels away naturally. Drying can continue indoors after harvest; rotate luffa regularly to allow all sides to become well-dried. After luffa is fully dried, peel skin and shake out seeds. Alternatively, soak gourds in warm water for several days to remove skin easily and rinse out pulp and seeds, then let dry for about a week.
