Kale Midnight Sun
Description
Description
Stunning ornamental looking variety, starting to appear in supermarkets with a deep red textured leaf and a striking pink mid vein. Suitable for multiple cuts, and is very versatile. One of the best varieties for use as a baby leaf kale but also works well as a mature plant.
Pack size: 20 seeds
When to Sow: May to June.
Where to Sow: Sow seeds thinly in a well prepared seed bed in shallow drills 1.5cm (1/2") deep in short rows. Alternatively sow the seeds thinly in seed trays or two seeds per cell in modules under glass at 13C.
What to do next: Outdoor sowings should be thinned out to 7-10cm (3-4in) apart, then once plants are large enough, lifted and transplanted to their final planting positions 45cm (18in) apart and 60cm (24in) between the rows to grow on to maturity. As soon as glasshouse seedlings show their first pair of leaves, prick off into trays 5cm (2") apart or thin modules to one seedling per cell. Gradually harden off before planting out when about 15cm (6") tall to the same spacing's as detailed above.
Harvest: October to February.
Handy Tip: Can also be sown direct outside and harvested when young as baby leaves and eaten raw as a healthy addition to a salad.
