Kale Vates Blue Curled organic

Kale Vates Blue Curled organic. An early, reliable and popular variety producing low, compact plants (12-15” tall, 20-35”spread) with finely curled, bluish-green leaves which can be harvested in all seasons. This variety withstands colder weather and a light frost especially improves flavour and sweetness. Can be grown as a spring or autumn crop. Ready for use 55 days from sowing.

  • Choose an area with full sun and a soil pH of 6.0-7.0.
  • Enrich the soil with compost or well-rotted manure.
