As soon as ground can be worked in spring, prepare a well-drained, fertile garden bed in full sun. Sow groups of 2 to 3 seeds, each group 12 to 18 inch. apart. Cover 1/4 inch. deep and keep soil evenly moist to ensure good germination. Thin to 1 seedling per group when several in. tall. Sow again in mid to late summer for another cold-hardy crop.
Sow seeds in a container of seed starting mix 2 inch. apart and cover 1/4 inch. deep. Keep moist and provide a strong light source until seedlings are 3 to 4 inch. tall then plant outdoors. Space 12 to 18 in. apart.
Kale can be sown in spring as early as the ground can be worked. A second mid to late summer-sown crop will yield through fall and winter except in the coldest climates. Frost actually enhances kale leaves' colour, flavor and sweetness. Mulch to retain moisture in summer and before the ground freezes to protect the roots of fall crops.
