How to grow Kale from seeds
When to Plant:
Kale can be planted at any time, from early spring to early summer. Be mindful, as hot weather makes kale bitter. If planted late in the summer, you can harvest it from fall until the ground freezes.
How to Grow:
Plant in an area with well-drained, loamy soil.
If planting in cool season, select an area that will get full sun. Choose partial shade if growing in the warm season.
Water the plants regularly, but take care not to over water.
Mulch the soil heavily after first freeze. Plants can produce leaves throughout the winter.
