Since kale thrives in cool weather and sweetens with frost, Dwarf Blue Curled Scotch kale seeds grows best as a fall crop. For an earlier crop in areas with a cool summer, sow the seeds in early spring. Plant 3 seeds in a cluster, 1/2" deep, 16-18" apart with rows 2-3 feet apart. Thin clusters to the strongest plant when the seedlings emerge. For a fall crop, plant the same way about 3 months before the first expected frost date average.
