Planting Fall Seedlings Cabbage Collards and Mustard Greens in the Gardyn Garden and GreenStalk
As temperatures cool and the summer crops wind down, it is the perfect time for planting fall seedlings. Cabbage, collards, and mustard greens thrive in the crisp days of fall, bringing fresh flavor and nutrition to your table. Whether you are growing indoors in your Gardyn, outdoors in your raised garden, or vertically in a GreenStalk, these cool season vegetables will reward you with steady growth and abundant harvests through the coming months.

🥬 Why Choose Cabbage Collards and Mustard Greens for Fall
These leafy greens love cooler weather and become sweeter after a light chill.
-
Cabbage forms tight heads that store well and taste crisp and mild.
-
Collards are sturdy, rich in vitamins, and keep producing after many harvests.
-
Mustard greens bring a spicy kick and grow quickly, making them perfect for successive planting.
Together, they form a diverse fall garden trio that keeps your plates full of homegrown goodness.
🌱 Starting Fall Seedlings Indoors in the Gardyn
The Gardyn makes planting fall seedlings simple and mess free.
-
Start your cabbage, collard, and mustard seeds in yCubes.
-
Keep them under bright LED light with moderate humidity.
-
Once seedlings develop 4 to 6 true leaves, thin weaker sprouts.
-
When plants are strong, continue growing them inside or transfer outdoors if your temperatures are mild.
In the Gardyn, your greens grow free of pests, and harvest begins just a few weeks after transplanting.
🌾 Transplanting Fall Seedlings to the Outdoor Garden
When planting in your raised beds or garden soil, choose a spot with at least six hours of sun.
-
Prepare rich, loose soil mixed with compost.
-
Space cabbage about 18 inches apart and collards 12 inches apart.
-
Plant mustard greens close together for a dense, harvest ready patch.
-
Water consistently, especially during the first two weeks.
Cool nights and sunny days create the perfect balance for tender, flavorful leaves.
🌼 Growing in the GreenStalk Vertical Planter
Your GreenStalk tower is another great home for fall seedlings.
-
Place cabbage near the top tiers for airflow and sunlight.
-
Plant mustard and collard greens lower down for cooler moisture.
-
Use organic potting mix rich in nutrients and water from the top reservoir daily.
Vertical growing saves space and creates a beautiful fall display of leafy greens.
🌞 Harvest and Continuous Growth
Begin harvesting outer leaves once they are large enough to eat. The plants will continue to grow new inner leaves, giving you a continuous harvest through fall and early winter.
Mustard greens can be harvested just 25 to 30 days after planting, while collards and cabbage take a little longer but provide steady yields week after week.
After each harvest, feed your plants with mild nutrients or compost tea to encourage strong regrowth.
🌿 Final Thoughts
Planting fall seedlings in the Gardyn, garden, or GreenStalk lets you extend your growing season and enjoy fresh produce well into the cooler months. Whether you are nurturing tender seedlings indoors or watching your greens flourish outdoors, every step brings you closer to a more sustainable and rewarding garden.
