Dazzling Blue is a lacinato type kale that has leaves with a bluish hue and violet stems. This is such a beautiful dark blue/green kale to grow. Lacinato also called dinosaur kale, are my favorite because they tolerate a wide range of cold to hot temperatures. Leaves are thick and have a crinkled or "savoyed" effect. The leaves have a smooth texture when cooked in soups. Leaves can be harvested at the baby stage for delicious salad greens. Kale is best grown in the cooler parts of the year. Typically seeds are started 6-8 weeks before your last frost date. In the south/Florida, I start kale seeds in August (indoors) to transplant into the garden in October and grow thru fall/winter/spring. Or direct sow seeds in October. This allows the plant to grow throughout the coldest months of the year. Kale has a tendency to die once summer heat comes here in my Florida garden. However, I have noticed that lacinato kales display decent heat tolerance as it lasts longer in my garden. I had some of this variety of kale live to almost 2 years because it was growing in a spot that received afternoon shade.

Ideal Growing Conditions

Sun: Does best getting 6 hours of sun a day. Grow in partial shade in hot climates.

Water: Keep the soil consistently moist.

Fertilizer: Crops grown to eat their leaves benefit from extra nitrogen. Work blood meal into the planting hole or soil before direct sowing the seeds. Apply more fertilizer every 4 weeks. 

When & How To Sow Seeds: For a spring crop: direct sow seeds after all danger of frost has passed or start indoors, in 4 inch pots, 6-8 weeks before your last spring frost date. For a fall crop: direct sow seeds 3-4 months before your first winter frost date. Or sow seeds indoors, in 4 inch pots, 5 months before your first winter frost date (because they need 6-8 weeks to grow to transplant size). When direct sowing seeds - sprinkle a few seeds over the soil surface, pat down, cover with 1/4 inch of soil, and water in. 

Germination: 3-10 days

Days To Maturity: 70 days after direct sowing the seed 

How & When To Harvest: Can start harvesting smaller baby greens when the leaves are 6 inches long or allow the leaves to mature and harvest when needed. 

Common Diseases: The most common diseases are fungal like powdery mildew and downy mildew. Space 1 kale plant every 1FT, do not overhead water, and prune out old, diseased, or decaying leaves to improve air flow. Spray with 1 cup of hydrogen peroxide per gallon of water every 3 to 5 days until you notice the spread has stopped. 

Common Pests: The most common pest when growing kale is aphids. Use a strong spray of water to dislodge aphids from the leaves. For more severe infestations, spray with organic insecticidal soap or spinosad. The same caterpillars/worms that like to chew brassicas will also chew kale leaves. Spray with BT or spinosad to treat chewing insects.

Finally! An SPF Hubby will wear!
Size: 2.5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I've bought my husband at least a dozen SPFs--everything from drugstore to premium brands--and he won't wear any of them. He's 64 years old with oily, extremely sensitive skin (rosacea and dermatitis), and a tendency to sweat a lot in the summer heat, as he's very active. As for SPF, he hates the white cast, how heavy it feels on his skin, and how his eyes burn when he sweats and the SPF gets in them. But I keep trying. Since Eucerin was the only SPF I was able to tolerate after radiation, I tried this one for him. It's the only one he's liked. There's some white cast initially but it settles quickly. He says the lotion doesn't feel heavy, hasn't caused any irritation or breakouts, and doesn't bother his eyes either. He actually wears this one!!! I'm thrilled! Thank you, Eucerin!

Good sunscreen
This sunscreen works well, and has coconut oil base, which is good for your skin. The cans have an adequate amount in them, but I would also like to see something twice their size, if that's possible.

Missing Expiration Date
I've used this sunscreen for years, and all bottles have an expiration date on the bottom; these did not have an expiration date stamped anywhere.
