Organic Collard
4” pot with organic collard plant start. One plant per pot.
A cool-weather favorite, collards are one of the easiest greens to grow for a steady, hearty harvest. Plant your starts 3 to 4 weeks before your last expected frost date; these leafy beauties thrive in early spring conditions.
Give them a sunny spot with rich, well-drained soil. Raised beds, in-ground gardens, or roomy containers all work beautifully. Before planting, mix in a few inches of compost or organic matter to boost nutrients and improve soil texture.
Space your collard plants about 18 to 24 inches apart and keep them evenly watered—about 1 to 1.5 inches per week is just right. Feeding regularly with a water-soluble, organic, fertilizer will keep those big green leaves coming.
Top your soil with a 3-inch layer of organic mulch to hold in moisture and keep weeds in check. You’ll be harvesting your first leaves when they reach about 10 inches long when they are tender, dark green, and full of flavor.
