Success with starting kale indoors (see last year’s post) inspired us to follow suit with collards, with similarly spectacular results. They were on the same schedule as the kale: seeded on April 5 and planted out on May 3.
The photo above was taken on May 23, 2026; the photo below was taken on May 24, 2025. Not only do we have our most uniformly-robust collard plants, we are harvesting from them a full two months earlier than last year. The results are well worth the extra seedling work in the spring!
