- Soil requirements: Chinese kale prefers well-drained, fertile soil with a pH level between 6.0 and 7.5. The soil should be rich in organic matter to support healthy growth.
- Sunlight needs: Chinese kale thrives in full sun but can tolerate partial shade. It requires at least 6 hours of direct sunlight per day for optimal growth.
- Watering requirements: Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Water the plants regularly, especially during dry periods, to ensure they receive about 1 inch of water per week.
- Planting season: The best time to plant Chinese kale seeds is in early spring or late summer. This allows the plants to grow in cooler temperatures, which they prefer.
- Depth and spacing: Plant the seeds at a depth of 1/4 to 1/2 inch. Space the seeds about 6 inches apart in rows that are 18 to 24 inches apart to allow for adequate growth and air circulation.
- Germination time: Chinese kale seeds typically germinate within 5 to 10 days under optimal conditions.
- Maturity time: Chinese kale usually reaches maturity within 50 to 70 days after planting, depending on the variety and growing conditions.
- Harvesting time: The best time to harvest Chinese kale is in the early morning when the leaves are crisp and full of moisture.
- Harvesting tips: Use a sharp knife or scissors to cut the leaves and stems. Harvest the outer leaves first, allowing the inner leaves to continue growing. Store the harvested kale in a cool, moist place, such as a refrigerator, to maintain freshness.
