I've harvested kale from 2nd year plants. They were still tasty and not bitter, although maybe not as tender as young plants. I garden in Zone 6A. I'm interested in other people's experience doing this.
6B in the PNW. Grew a bunch of kale last year and it lasted all summer and fall BUT the pesky 'bugs' ate up a bunch and I was checking daily for unwelcome guests. This year I will be sure to create an environment to discourage pests by using a barrier made from PVC pipe, chicken wire, and netting.
i am thinking of turning my bedroom into an indoor winter garden and using my small den for a bedroom. the bedroom windows face east and south.. my concern is my electric bill . any advice or tips? i'm in zone a/b illinois

Really falling in love with your content. You're so chaotic in the garden, just like me. ❤

It hadn’t even occurred to me (yet 😁) to freeze extra Kale. Thank you!! Important tip for me as I love Kale.

Once you have frozen the kale, can you make chips out of that frozen kale?
You know, I'm not sure on that one. I haven't tried. I see mixed reviews online
@@Gardenary I did too, and I just wasn’t sure if you tried it or not lol
I'm in zone 8b. It was low 70s today so... it may be too late for kale planting and it is not readily available at local nurseries.
Can't find the calendar. Tried twice and got a 404. Thanks for the information!
