Growing Tips
- Direct sow in early spring or late summer for a fall crop. Collards tolerate both light frost and warm weather.
- Sow seeds about one-quarter inch deep in well-drained soil with full sun to partial shade.
- Thin seedlings to 18 to 24 inches apart once they reach a few inches tall.
- Water consistently and keep soil evenly moist. Collards mature in roughly 60 to 80 days from transplant.
- Harvest outer leaves as needed to encourage continued production throughout the season.
