Key Features:

Fastest Maturing Collard: Ready to harvest in just 50 days, perfect for quick garden turnover.
High Yield: Tall, upright plants with leaves over 60cm (24") long, held away from the soil.
Uniform Growth: Highly consistent in size and shape for easy bunching.
Rich Flavor: Thick, slightly savoyed leaves with a rich, savory taste when cooked.
Versatile Harvest: Use succession planting from spring to summer for a constant supply of greens.

Growing Instructions:

Season & Zone: Best grown in cool seasons with full sun exposure. Winter hardy to Zone 6.
Timing: Direct sow from early spring to mid-summer for continuous harvests. Start indoors 4-6 weeks before the last frost and transplant when soil warms up. Optimal soil temperature for germination is 10-30°C (50-85°F).
Starting: Sow seeds 5mm (¼”) deep, 3-4 seeds per spot. Thin to the strongest plant. Space 45-60cm (18-24") apart in rows 75-90cm (30-36") apart.

Growing Tips:

Soil Requirements: Prefers well-drained, fertile soil high in organic matter with a pH of 6.0-6.8. Add lime to the bed 3 weeks prior to sowing.
Watering: Ensure consistent moisture for best quality leaves. Drought is tolerable but may affect flavor and texture.
Fertilization: Mix ¼ cup complete organic fertilizer into the soil beneath each transplant, or use 1 cup per 3m (10') of seed furrow.

Harvesting:

Optimal Harvest: Use as a cut-and-come-again crop by harvesting lower leaves as needed. Plants will continue producing all season. Leaves get sweeter after frost, and overwintered plants can produce delicious flowering stems and buds in spring.

Pests & Diseases:

Protection: Use floating row covers to protect from cabbage moths and other pests. Practice a 4-year crop rotation to prevent disease.

Companion Planting:

Beneficial Companions: Plant with chamomile, dill, mint, rosemary, and sage to enhance growth and flavor.
Avoid: Do not plant near eggplants, peppers, potatoes, or tomatoes due to soil acidity issues.
