Product Description
Kale Borecole Vates Blue Curled is an early variety of Kale that produces compact leaves in a blue/green shade. Perfect for sowing successionally to pick throughout the year! Can handle cold bouts of weather and even light frost, although it's always best to cover if you're unsure or live in a Northern area of the country. In fact, the frost can improve the flavour of this Kale, making it sweeter to taste.

Growing at a glance…
This seed can be sown all year round indoors. Sow outdoors from April to September. Sow 1-2cm deep, 1cm apart in rows and spaced 50-60cm apart. Thin seedlings to 20-25cm apart when transplanting. Kale germinates best in cooler to mild soil temperatures with even moisture. Choose an area that reaches plenty of sun and has a soil pH of 6.0-7.0. If needed, enrich the soil with compost or well-rotted manure. Harvest by clipping individual leaves toward the base.
