Cavolo Nero Kale

Also known as Tuscan or lacinato kale, this Italian heirloom bears puckered blue-black strap leaves used in soups and braises. Start indoors and transplant, or direct sow, spacing plants 15 inches apart in fertile soil. Harvest lower leaves first, working upward and leaving the growing crown intact for continuous production. Cold weather concentrates sugars, so the best-flavored leaves come after the first hard frosts. Watch for cabbage worms in warm spells and cover with row fabric if needed. Спосіб посадки: Посів на розсаду вдома Відстань між рослинами: 12–18 дюймів Висота: 24–36 дюймів Дні до схожості: 5–10 Температура ґрунту для схожості: 13–24°C
