Title: What am I growing?
Post by: Grubbypaws on September 14, 2017, 17:09

I purchased a packet of Kale Nero Di Toscana from T&M and have planted it out for salad leaves.

 I have grown this many times before and know that it has distinctive upright smoky green-black crinkled leaves. I have attached a picture of what has germinated and it doesnt look anything like Kale Nero di toscana!

Can anyone identify it so that I know what to do with it  :unsure:

Looks like a kale, let the seed company know, you might get some freebies

I'm pretty sure some of mine grown earlier this year looked like that to start with and got me worried, but they soon came to look 'normal'

Again mine started life like that and then to the plant we know.
