How to care for your Vegetable Plant
Use these instructions to care for a Vegetable Plant. This guide will tell you how to water a Vegetable Plant; its light, temperature, humidity preferences and any additional care it might need to help it grow.
Kale Storm
Your Kale plant requires bright light to full sun. If grown indoors, place on a sunny windowsill or under a grow light.
Water your Kale plant when the top 25% of soil is dry. Water until liquid flows through the drainage hole at the bottom of the pot and discard any water that has accumulated in the saucer. Do not allow the soil of your Kale plant to dry out completely.
Your Kale plant prefers a humid environment. Mist often if grown indoors.
60°-90° F
Feed once every month during the spring and summer with a fertilizer for edible plants.
Cut your Kale at any point to enjoy it. Cut no more than ⅓ of the plant’s leaves off at any given time. Please note: Kale is meant for humans, not pets.
Pepper Plant
Your Pepper Plant will grow best in full sun, but will also do just fine indoors on a sunny windowsill, as long as it receives at least 6-8 hours of direct sun per day.
Do not allow the soil of your Pepper Plant to dry out completely. Water when the top 50% of soil is dry. If kept outside during peak growth in the spring and summer, watering may be needed every day.
If kept indoors, mist a few times per week.
Your Pepper Plant will do best in temperatures between 60-90 degrees. If kept outdoors, bring indoors before nighttime temperatures dip below 50 degrees.
Feed once every month during the spring and summer with a fertilizer for edible plants.
Cubanelle and Sweet Banana Peppers are non-toxic and edible, but are meant to be eaten by humans — not pets. Green Bell Peppers are non-toxic to pets.
Pick your Peppers when they begin turning color. Cubanelle Peppers are ready once red in color; Green Bell Peppers are ready once green in color; and Sweet Banana Pepper are ready once yellow-green in color. Enjoy by themselves or add them to a variety of dishes.
