Vates Collard seeds thrive when they are in a soil with a pH between 6 and 6.5, which should also be moist. Choose an area with full sun for the collard plants, and be sure to water them often. Keep the leaves themselves dry as you water the seeds, doing so close to the surface of the soil. When sowing these collard seeds, keep 6 inches between plants and 18 inches between each row. After around 75 days, the collard greens will be ready for harvest.

It may be beneficial to sow seeds indoors and transplant seedlings, but in most zones 6 or higher, these seeds can be sown directly. Sow the seeds about a quarter of an inch deep in rich, sandy soil. Adding a compost to the soil can help it be at the correct pH, which is between 6 and 6.4, ideally. Sow them in an area with full or partial sun, and keep them consistently watered. Sow seeds with 18\" between plants as well as rows. After around 60 days, the stems will be full sized and ready to be harvested.
