Hydra is a truly unique, seaweed type kale with blue-green, almost silver leaves that are deeply serrated and spiky, with lots of character. The thick leaves are excellent lightly cooked with a mild flavour that sweetens as the outdoor temperatures drop. A good choice for leaving in the garden after first frost. Plants grow 60-80cm (24-32") tall.
Approx. 50 Seeds
Direct sow in early spring to mid-summer for summer to winter harvests. Or start indoors 4-6 weeks before the last frost, and transplant out as soon as the soil warms up. Optimal soil temperature: 10-30°C (50-85°F). Seeds should germinate in 7-10 days.
Sow 3-4 seeds 5mm (¼”) deep in each spot you where a plant is to grow. Thin to the strongest plant. Space 45-60cm (18-24″) apart in rows 75-90cm (30-36″) apart.
