How to Plant

1. Sow seeds ¼ inch deep in well-drained soil after the danger of hard frost has passed.
2. Start indoors 4–6 weeks before your last frost for earlier harvests.
3. Spacing: 12–18 inches apart in full sun.
4. Water: Keep soil consistently moist until germination (5–10 days).
5. Growing zones: Suitable across most USDA zones for cool-season growing.

Harvest & Enjoy

Begin harvesting baby kale leaves at 2–3 inches tall or allow plants to reach full size in 50–65 days. Red Russian kale is a cut-and-come-again variety, producing new leaves throughout the season. Enjoy its sweet, tender greens fresh or cooked—it’s a versatile superfood for every kitchen.
