Their fine appearance and distinctive allium flavour make them particularly useful where you want fresh chive character without the larger foliage of mature plants.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOnion Chives are slower than fast microgreens such as broccoli, radish or mustard. Germination generally takes around one to two weeks, followed by continued growth until the shoots develop good colour, length and aroma. A finished crop can generally be harvested in approximately \u003cstrong\u003e18–25 days\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFresh Onion Flavour \u0026amp; Fine Green Shoots\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOnion Chive microgreens have a clean, fresh onion flavour with mild grassy and savoury notes. Their flavour is noticeable without the stronger garlic character associated with Garlic Chives.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eUse freshly harvested shoots with eggs, omelettes, potatoes, soups, salads, sandwiches and savoury bowls, or scatter them over dips, dressings and plated dishes immediately before serving. Their narrow upright form also makes an attractive garnish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eA Distinctive Allium Microgreen\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eUnlike broad-leaved microgreens, Onion Chives grow as fine, grass-like shoots. Small black seed coats commonly remain attached to the tips during early growth and may still be present when the crop approaches harvest.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe seeds require no pre-soaking. Sow shallowly into a fine, consistently moist growing medium such as \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/ozsprout.com.au\/products\/coco-fibre-growing-medium\"\u003eCoco Fibre Growing Medium\u003c\/a\u003e and allow extra time for their naturally slower germination. Once established, provide bright light, good airflow and careful bottom watering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSlow-Growing Specialty Micro Herbs\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOnion Chive microgreens remain in the tray considerably longer than most brassica microgreens, so moisture control and airflow are particularly important. Avoid excessive seeding density and permanently saturated growing media during the extended crop cycle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOnce the seedlings establish, good light encourages upright green growth while bottom watering helps minimise repeated wetting of the fine shoots.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eGrow Onion Chives Beyond the Microgreen Stage\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe same seed can also be grown into mature perennial chive plants.
