Title: Russian Kale
Post by: Tin Shed on May 30, 2009, 22:28:26

I'm growing russian kale for the first time this year, but do not know how big the plants grow - so don't know how far to space them when I plant them out tomorrow.
Are there any russian kale experts out there who can advise!!!

I am running out of space but suddenly realized that I had a foot spare round the edge of my plot.  Most of my rows stop short of the end. So I have decided to plant my winter brassicas there,  also will not have to tread on the plot when I pop down to harvest it.
