Burrell Seeds 2018 Catalog

KALE Kale is an excellent cool season crop and can be planted early spring or late summer in long season areas. Fall plantings fare better with pests in warm climates. Plant kale seeds directly into the garden 1/4” to 1/2” deep, 12” apart in rows 2’ to 3’ wide and keep moist while growing. While kale can handle dry conditions occasionally, the flavor is better if not allowed to dry out. Kale prefers a loamy well drained soil and will tolerate light shade.

Start leek seeds indoors, 8 to 10 weeks before the last expected spring frost. Thin to 1 per 1” when they are 3” high. Hardened off leeks can be transplanted outside while the weather is still on the cool side, 60º to 65º. To direct seed, sow leek seeds about 4 weeks before average last frost ½ inch deep, 1 inch apart, in rows 20 inches apart. Leeks are often planted in a 6” trench, 6” apart, gradually filled as they grow, which blanches the stalks. Leeks appreciate a steady supply of nitrogen, plenty of water and full sun.
