Fatty Seeds – Dino Kale
Dino Kale, also known as Lacinato Kale or Tuscan Kale, is a leafy vegetable known for its long, dark green leaves and distinctive wrinkled texture. With its mild, slightly earthy flavour, it is commonly used in salads, soups, smoothies and stir-fries. Rich in vitamins and minerals, Dino Kale is a nutritious addition to home gardens and is suitable for growing in pots or garden beds.
Planting Guidelines:
-
Sow the seeds directly into well-draining, nutrient-rich soil, approximately 0.5–1cm deep. Space the plants 30–45cm apart to allow sufficient room for healthy growth.
-
Seeds typically germinate within 5–10 days, and the leaves can be ready for harvesting in approximately 50–75 days. Harvest the outer leaves regularly while leaving the centre intact to encourage continuous growth.
-
Dino Kale grows best in cooler conditions with full to partial sunlight. In Singapore's warm climate, morning sunlight with afternoon shade is recommended to reduce heat stress. Water regularly to keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Ensure good drainage and adequate airflow to promote healthy growth.
