    It is fine to eat. You may find it a bit tougher, but that is really the only difference.

    Angel73 one of my quick fixes to help my organic home garden get a jumpstart, is to use coffee grounds. I don't drink coffee myself, but I get my used grounds from Starbucks - they have a gardening program where they save used coffee grounds for gardeners!
    I just add a little to the root area of my veggies, for a cheap easy boost to help them grow better. Hope that helps!

    Mostly by how it tastes. If it's too tough or bitter for your taste, then you don't want to use it. This article has more information: https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/edible/vegetables/kale/harvesting-kale.htm

    Did the temperatures dip below 20 degrees after you transplanted them? That is the temperature tolerance for kale. And it is recommended to protect young plants from severe cold winds with a cover if you plant them early in the spring.

    How have you been watering them? I just want to evaluate the possibility of them being under or over-watered.

    How tall were the plants when you planted them and how many leaves did they have?

    Are any other seedlings planted in this soil bed and, if so, how are they faring? When you said the seedlings looked pinched off I wondered if they were "damping off" due to a soil fungus.
