Kale Chinese Kailaan White Flowered
Brassica oleracea
Days to maturity: 60 - 70
Chinese kale, also called Chinese broccoli, Kailaan, or Gai Lan can be substituted for regular broccoli in many recipes. Its unique flavor will win you over! Chinese kale is easy to grow, and will tolerate heat better than many kale and broccoli varieties. High in calcium, iron, vitamins A and C. Very popular for stir-fry dishes. Can also be steamed or boiled. For a gourmet treat, lightly sauté the thinned seedlings!
This packet plants two 6 foot rows.
Days to Emerge: 10 - 20
Seed Depth: 1/2"
Seed Spacing: A group of 4 seeds every 8" - 10"
Row Spacing: 12"
Thinning: When 2" tall, thin to 1 every 8" - 10"
When to sow outside: 4 to 6 weeks before average last frost or as soon as soil can be worked. Also, in late summer for fall harvest. In mild winter climates, can be sown in late fall for winter, early spring harvest.
When to start inside: 3 to 4 weeks before average last frost.
Harvesting: Pick the center bud stalks first; side branches will continue to produce flower buds for secondary harvesting. Whole plants should be harvested just before flower buds open when plant is 8" - 10" tall.
