When should collards be planted in Alabama? The best time to harvest is from July 15th to mid-September, before cooler weather hit. When the weather is not too hot, it is normally 6 to 8 weeks before the first frost.

North Carolina is a major collard greens producer in the US, and its climate is suitable for growing this crop during the spring and fall. If you want to cultivate collard greens in your garden, it’s best to start in either the fall (between July 15 and September 15) or the spring (from February 1 to April 30).

This is my second season planting in fall and leaving out all winter – frost, rain, snowww, cold, warm, crazy weather in zone 6b NJ and if this years crop is anything like last year come April I will have enough collards to feed my neighborhood! I have only used leaves from fall clean up and do not remove the snow – I just let them be and last years plant was 3 feet tall and I had 1 plant that feed 3 families. I have been tracking the progress of the greens on my youtube so we will see how this season (2022) turns out.

Hi, I’ve been growing my collard greens since the end of summer. I have used some leaves and they grew back. They are growing, not as big as the first time but are they ok to eat now?? They have been growing on their own. I haven’t done anything to them. I also have some cabbage growing next to them. They have been growing around the same time. I’m a little afraid because of how long they’ve been growing, will I get sick if I cook them?
