 COLLARDS -HEIRLOOM

(Georgia Southern)

Although collards are a staple of southern cooking, they should be more widely grown for their nutritious green leaves that are high in vitamins and minerals and for their versatility in the kitchen. Collards are actually a non-heading member of the cabbage (mustard) family with huge cabbage-like blue-green leaves. The young fresh leaves can be picked for salads. More mature leaves can be harvested when the plants are 6-8 inches  tall, then the entire plant can be cut off at ground level, or the entire plant (roots and all) can be hung upside down in a cool dry place for 2-3 months. Excess harvest can also be blanched and frozen to provide greens for later use. Collards are more heat tolerant than other greens and are cold tolerant up to about 20 degrees F, so they make a good spring/summer and fall crop. A light frost makes the leaves taste even sweeter!

When to plant outside: Early spring, 3-4 weeks before average last frost. Or, they can be sown in late summer, 10-12 weeks before average first fall frost. Late summer plantings produce the best collard flavor which occurs after light fall frosts.

When to start inside: 6 weeks before transplanting outside (3-4 weeks before average last frost).

Special Germination Instructions: Easy to grow from seed. Thin seedlings by pinching off plant at soil surface, thus decreasing damage to other seedlings. Rotate crops, so you don't grow any member of the mustard family in the same place more than once every three years. Protect seedlings with caps in early spring if temperatures drop below 30 degrees.
