Brassica oleracea. Think Lacinato Kale, but with a deeper color and milder flavor! This new favorite is loved for its heartiness as it thrives in both spring and warmer weather; its leaves are abundant and will reappear again and again! Enjoy cooked, raw or juiced!
Black Magic Kale is very easy to grow in Northeast Georgia. I love to add it to salads. It has such a beautiful dark green color.
Haven't had a harvest yet, but it's trucking along in my fall garden.
I've tried four types of kale so far and this one is my favorite. It doesn't mean I won't experiment with others for variety, but this one is reliable and healthy. The bugs and slugs don't care for it so the leaves are mostly pristine. Once harvested, the kale stays crisp and sturdy for a long time, while the plant is ready to throw out more leaves. Easy to grow and easy to harvest!
This is a very easy crop to grow and stands up to an Oregon winter! Also quite and "eye-catcher". Leaves are plentiful and easy to pick. Even my grandsons-who "hate kale"--gobbled it up when I told them that it was called "Dinosaur Kale" because the dinosaurs ate it. (OK, I lied. But they still ate it!!)

We have nice fertile soil in our greenhouse and able to control those pesty little flea beetles that can decimate eggplants foliage. I've been keeping them under control with DE and my eggplants are massive in size, about 3-4 feet tall with 1 foot lower leaves.
The eggplants fruit are developing nicely, nearly doubling in size daily. There are plenty of blossoms too. We're expecting that we won't need to grow more for a few years, we're planning on freeze drying most if them.
I purchased several packs of seeds from MiGardener during the semi annual sale, and they did not disappoint! Nearly 100 percent germination rate on all seeds I've planted. The only thing I haven't been able to germinate is lemon grass, which I'm learning may 1 take a very long time to germinate in general and 2 need bottom heat to help them sprout. Even without being on sale 2 bucks a seed pack for the amount they give (very generous compared to other companies, I might add) is a crazy good deal. If you have been on the fence, I encourage you to give MiGardener seeds a try! Thank you Luke and team, and Happy Gardening to all!
I'm not a seasoned gardener, so I don't necessarily know what's normal or not, but out of all the seeds I planted (got about a dozen different herbs and greens from MIgardener), the fenugreek was the quickest to sprout, had the highest germination rate, and the largest sprouting leaves. I'm pretty excited to watch them grow into beautiful plants.
Gardening for over 40 years. The Trifecta very impressed has all the elements I want in a fertilizer. Next year I will buy the largest amount.
Second squash to produce for me. Picked young and the skin is very thin/easily bruises. Roasted first batch and they were a delicious mild flavor! Very soft but the roasting gave a nice crust on them. 2nd batch mixed in a stir fry and it overcooked very easily and was mushy. I like how prolific this plant is and the mild taste. Just need to make sure not to overcook. Well definitely grow again.
