Although leafy crops tolerate shade better than plants grown for their fruits or roots, at least six hours of sunshine daily will help ensure a high-quality harvest. Avoid planting leafy greens in heavy clay or sandy soils. The soil pH should be between 5.8 and 6.8.<\/p>\n<p>Most leafy vegetables can be planted as early in spring as the soil can be worked. The soil is ready for tilling and planting if a handful of soil crumbles when you squeeze it. If the soil forms a muddy ball when you squeeze it, the soil is still too wet and will form hard, long-lasting clods if you work it.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_9379\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a  href=\"https:\/\/www.purdue.edu\/hla\/sites\/yardandgarden\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2019\/04\/lettuceLeaves.jpg\" data-rel=\"lightbox-gallery-0\" data-rl_title=\"Lettuce is a cool season crop\" data-rl_caption=\"\" title=\"Lettuce is a cool season crop\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-9379\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-9379\" src=\"https:\/\/www.purdue.edu\/hla\/sites\/yardandgarden\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2019\/04\/lettuceLeaves-300x169.jpg\" alt=\"Close-up picture of a lettuce plant with large, reddish leaves\" width=\"300\" height=\"169\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.purdue.edu\/hla\/sites\/yardandgarden\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2019\/04\/lettuceLeaves-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.purdue.edu\/hla\/sites\/yardandgarden\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2019\/04\/lettuceLeaves-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.purdue.edu\/hla\/sites\/yardandgarden\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2019\/04\/lettuceLeaves-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.purdue.edu\/hla\/sites\/yardandgarden\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2019\/04\/lettuceLeaves-418x235.jpg 418w, https:\/\/www.purdue.edu\/hla\/sites\/yardandgarden\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2019\/04\/lettuceLeaves-31x17.jpg 31w, https:\/\/www.purdue.edu\/hla\/sites\/yardandgarden\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2019\/04\/lettuceLeaves.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-9379\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Lettuce is a cool season crop<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Seed may be directly sown in the garden for many leafy greens and must be planted at the proper depth to ensure good germination. The seed packet should include information on planting depth and spacing. Crops such as lettuce, spinach, chard kale, and collards may be transplanted to get an early start.<\/p>\n<p>Home gardeners can choose that approach or decide to harvest only a few leaves as they are needed, allowing for a longer harvest season from a single planting. If you harvest leaves as needed, harvest the outer, more mature leaves first, leaving the young, inner leaves to continue growing. However, collards are an exception: harvest the center rosette of collard leaves.<\/p>\n<p>As the days grow longer and warmer, cool-season greens tend to bolt (flower) and become tough or bitter. At this point, it is best to pull the plants and replace with a warm-season crop.<\/p>\n<p>Additional information on growing leafy greens can be found at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.purdue.edu\/hla\/sites\/yardandgarden\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2016\/10\/HO-29.pdf\">https:\/\/ag.purdue.edu\/hla\/pubs\/HO\/HO-29.pdf<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Leafy vegetables are more nutritious and have fewer calories than most other vegetables, and they\u2019re easy to grow.
