Kale is a beneficial vegetable and can therefore be planted on beds, harvested by the end of July at the latest.
The possible planting period extends from the end of June to the beginning of August. However, August planting will only bring satisfactory yields, when the autumn weather is particularly favourable. The plants are grown on an open-air seedbed. Sow in rows very widely and as evenly as possible, so that the plants have enough space to develop and requires at most per m2 2 g seed. It is expedient, to water after emergence with a 0.2% complete fertilizer solution, to get particularly strong young plants. The sowing date is approx 5 weeks before the planned planting. Plant on a normal bed 3 Rows spaced by 40 cm. In the row, depending on the variety and planting date, the plants are spaced at 40 cm to 50 cm. The later the planting date, the narrower the plant spacing. Low varieties are best for growing in the garden, since they suffer less from frost damage than the higher types in winters with little snow.
