Planting kale plant

• It is easy to grow either through direct planting in the garden soil or indoor planting.
• The plant is commonly planted from nursery starts.
• It grows well in raised garden beds and containers, especially if you’re short on garden space.
• It can be grown as a cut-and-grow-again vegetable, meaning you harvest what you need while the plant continues to grow.
• This means you will need only a few kale plants, depending on how often and how much you’d like to harvest.
• Because this plant is grown for its leaves and not its flowers, it can handle full sun or part shade.
