How to Grow
Begin sowing Kale ‘Dwarf Green Curled’ seeds outdoors from January through August in fertile, well-drained soil located in terraces, containers, or kitchen gardens. This annual kale prefers full sun and consistent moisture to thrive and develop its distinctive curled leaves.
Sowing
Sow two seeds in small holes within firm, prepared soil and cover lightly. Keep the soil moist and place the seeds in a warm, sunny spot to encourage germination during the early months of the year.
Growing
Once seedlings emerge, thin them to allow adequate space for growth, ideally within a 50 cm pot or similar container. This spacing supports the plant’s compact, dwarf habit and ensures healthy development through to the growing months from March to December.
Plant care
Maintain consistent watering to keep the soil moist but not waterlogged, especially during warmer months. Regularly harvest outer leaves to encourage bushier growth and consider succession sowing between January and August to enjoy a continuous supply of fresh kale throughout the year.
