Growing Cavolo Nero from seed

[Allfurcoatandnoknickers]

I sowed some Cavolo Nero seeds and have potted them on into smaller plant pots in the greenhouse.
Do you think they'll be ok to plant on to bigger pots soon and leave them in the greenhouse over the winter, or would you plant them out? I've heard they are hardy, but will be clearing my greenhouse this weekend after the summer and was going to replace the tomatoes with the kale? Any experience on growing these?

It's worth a try planting them out. I grow them over winter on my allotment and they are really hardy, they carry on through frost and snow. Your main risk now is probably slugs if the plants are very small, as the weather gets wetter and their growth slows down, but even then they'll probably re-grow in the spring if they are badly nibbled.

Fab thanks! Might get them bigger in the greenhouse then pop them outside 👍

They’ll be happy in an unheated greenhouse (that’s where mine are at the moment). I tend to look after anything less than 6 inches high.
