Growing Information

Growing Lacinato Heirloom Kale

‘Lacinato,’ also known as 'Dinosaur Kale' or 'Nero di Toscana,' is an Italian heirloom kale prized for its dark blue-green foliage, heavily crinkled texture, and sweet, succulent flavor. Long leaves develop their best flavor during cool weather, becoming even sweeter after frost.

Start ‘Lacinato’ indoors for transplanting or sow directly where conditions allow. Plant seeds about ¼ inch deep and space plants 12 to 18 inches apart. Grow in full sun to partial shade. This cold-tolerant variety is also well suited to containers.

Ready to harvest in about 55 days, pick younger leaves for the most tender texture or allow foliage to grow larger for cooking.

Sweet, hearty, and versatile, ‘Lacinato’ is excellent for fresh eating, salads, soups, sautéing, braising, and everyday cooking.

Germination was slow, but good quantity. No review yet, regarding flavor or proliferation.

100% germination - GREAT seeds

I've really struggled with germinating kale seeds (lots of varieties/different companies) for my hydroponic garden. With this one, I achieved a 100% germination rate EVERY TIME - on paper towel, in hydroponic sponge, on rockwool - EVERY single seed germinated and fast.

I placed an order for the lacinto kale and many other seeds for the 1st time through Seeds 'N Such and have had great success w/their other seed varieties as well. if you look at the quantity, they seem to offer twice the quantity as other vendors for the same price - but most importantly their quality seems better. p.s. they also included two generous envelopes of free seeds.
