Here are step-by-step instructions for planting and growing Lacinato (also known as dinosaur or Tuscan) Organic Kale seeds:

Materials:

  • Lacinato Organic Kale seeds
  • Garden soil or potting soil
  • Compost or organic fertilizer
  • A trowel or shovel
  • A watering can or hose with a gentle sprayer attachment

Steps:

  1. Choose a location. Lacinato kale grows best in full sun, but it can also tolerate partial shade. Choose a location that receives at least six hours of sunlight per day.
  2. Prepare the soil. Lacinato kale prefers soil that is rich in organic matter, so add compost or organic fertilizer to the soil before planting. Use a trowel or shovel to mix the compost or fertilizer into the top few inches of soil.
  3. Plant the seeds. Sow the Lacinato Organic Kale seeds about 1/4 inch deep in the soil, spacing them about 18 inches apart. Cover the seeds with soil and gently press down on the soil to ensure good seed-to-soil contact.
  4. Water the seeds. Use a gentle sprayer attachment to water the soil, making sure not to wash away the seeds. Keep the soil moist until the seeds germinate, which usually takes around 7 to 10 days.
  5. Thin the seedlings. Once the Lacinato kale seedlings are a few inches tall, thin them to one plant every 18 inches. This will give each plant enough space to grow.
  6. Care for the plants. Water the Lacinato kale plants deeply once or twice a week, depending on the weather conditions, and avoid overwatering. Fertilize the plants with organic fertilizer every two to three weeks to provide the nutrients needed for healthy growth.
  7. Harvest the kale. You can begin harvesting Lacinato kale leaves once the plants are around 8-10 inches tall. Pick the outer leaves from the bottom of the plant first, leaving the smaller, inner leaves to grow. The younger leaves tend to be more tender and flavorful.

That’s it! By following these steps, you should be able to successfully plant and grow Lacinato Organic Kale seeds. Happy gardening!
