| Video Discription | Zone 6 (Chicago, IL, USA) Hey there! Many folks are gearing up for a Fall planting of COLLARD GREENS so I thought I would share a quick look at my collard green bed this season. 📸: April 30, 2023 through June 30, 2023 In addition to the information shared in the video, I hope you find the details below helpful. 1. 🌱Variety - I have had great success in past years with Georgia collards and Top Bunch collards! THIS YEAR I have two varieties growing, the greens in the first row that have a shorter/wider stature are Morris heading collards a/k/a Morris heading 'cabbage' collards. But unfortunately, the variety of greens in the back row near the fence is unknown (it was simply labeled "collards" when I bought the plants). 2. 🌱 Planting/growing time - Collards are a cool weather crop. But I am fortunate in that I can grow collards in the Spring, Summer, Fall and very early winter (the plants are hardy but eventually die back in Chicago winters). Check in your area for the best time to grow them, as some gardeners only grow collards in the Spring, Fall or Winter due to pest pressure, heat pressure or general preference. 3. 🌱Fertilizer - In addition to the granular fertilizer I added when planting, after they have been growing a couple of months, I *may* start fertilizing with a fish and seaweed liquid fertilizer twice a month . Also, a few months aggrt planting, I *may* come back in and 'top dress' with an all purpose granular fertilizer. 4. 🌱Material/tools - I typically start with 10ft x 1/2 in PVC pipe and cut it down to size. I have also used PEX pipe which is thinner and more flexible). There are also garden hoops or row cover hoops (among other things) that can be used instead of PVC or PEX pipes. I use a PVC pipe cutter often! And like with this setup, I'm using rebar to anchor the PVC pipe. 5. 🌱 Covers - I cover my greens to protect them from pests like the cabbage moth/worm! If the cabbage moth is flying around, it's best to cover your plants AS SOON as they are moved outside / planted (or when they germinate if direct sowing). I'm using row covers in this video (keep light transmission in mind) but I've also used Tulle fabric (108 inch width -- keep in mind that it is delicate and easy to tear so be careful). Insect netting would also be great and maybe even preferred when growing outside of freezing temps. 6. 🌱Pests - There are of course both organic and non organic methods to manage pests in your garden. In addition to the cabbage moth/worm (see above), later in the summer, I battle with white flies and aphids on my greens which I typically manage with a strong spray of the water hose daily. 7. 🌱P.S. At least once a season, my greens get attached by the cabbage worm and I hand pick the worms daily until I get things under control. *************************************** *Amazon store* Check out the products Batavia and Ben use in their gardens at https://www.amazon.com/shop/thebackyardgardner *VEGO Garden* Shop for garden beds and accessories at https://glnk.io/vzw5/b-bettagarden *GreenStalk Gardens* (use code BETTA for $10 off $75+).
