Chives (Staro) Seeds from Aquager Technologies deliver crisp hollow stems with a subtle onion flavor and edible purple flowers, perfect for garnishing salads, soups, omelets, and baked potatoes, in about 50 days. Comes with 30 seeds and 12 compostable grow mats, enough to seed 12 cups of your Aquager Home Farm.

• Subtle onion flavor: Adds savory depth without overpowering, ideal for garnishing.
• Tall, uniform "Staro" variety: Prized for thick, dark-green stems and high yields.
• Edible purple flowers: Decorative and tasty, perfect for salads and cheese boards.
• Cut-and-come-again perennial: Snip stems and they regrow, productive year after year.

How to grow it: Fill a grow cup with clay pebbles, set a grow mat on top, and use the pipette from your pH kit to soak the mat until it's fully expanded. Scatter the seeds onto the damp mat, cover the cup, and check daily. Chives typically sprout in 7-14 days; once you see seedlings, remove the cover and let them grow. They root and grow right where they started, no nursery, no transplanting. Keep newly seeded cups clear of taller, established neighbors so the new seedlings get enough direct light early on.

Chives are one of the most useful kitchen herbs you can grow at home, and Staro is the variety chefs reach for. Order from Aquager Technologies today and start growing.
