Growing Mustard
Growing Mustard
- To achieve successful cultivation, it is recommended to plant greens during the cool temperatures of spring and fall. These flavorful greens thrive in raised beds, containers, and in-ground gardens.
- In an area with abundant sunlight and fertile, well-drained soil having a pH of 6.5 to 6.8, ensure that the plants are spaced apart at a distance of 12 to 18 inches from one another.
- Upgrade your soil by integrating several inches of aged compost or other organic matter that is abundant in essential nutrients.
- To ensure the rapid growth of edible greens, it is crucial to maintain a consistent water supply. Monitor the moisture level of the soil frequently and water the plants when the top inch of soil dries out.
- When the leaves of the greens have reached a sufficient size, you can harvest them.
