How to Germinate Kale Italian Lacinato Nero di Toscana

How to Germinate Kale Italian Lacinato Nero di Toscana (Brassica oleracea)
  • Sow Lacinato Kale seeds directly outdoors in early spring or late summer for a fall harvest.
  • Plant seeds 1/4 inch deep in well-draining soil, spacing them 12-18 inches apart in rows 18-24 inches apart.
  • If starting indoors, sow seeds 4-6 weeks before the last expected frost date.
  • Maintain a soil temperature of 60-70°F (16-21°C) for optimal germination, which usually takes 5-10 days.
  • Keep the soil consistently moist during the germination period, but avoid waterlogging.
  • Thin seedlings to 12-18 inches apart once they have developed 2-3 sets of true leaves to allow for full growth.

Additional Tips
  • Lacinato Kale thrives in full sun but can tolerate partial shade, especially in warmer climates.
  • Water regularly to keep the soil evenly moist, as this promotes tender and flavorful leaves.
  • Apply mulch around the base of the plants to retain soil moisture, regulate temperature, and prevent weed growth.
  • Fertilize with compost or a balanced fertilizer every 4-6 weeks to support vigorous growth throughout the season.
  • Harvest the outer leaves when they are young and tender, allowing the inner leaves to continue growing for extended harvesting.
