Garnet Giant Mustard Greens, Organic

High Mowing Organic Seeds - Stunning, vibrant maroon leaves with bright lime green stems.

A must-have for any baby mustard mix. Color fades under row cover (or any low-light condition), but returns within a few days of plants being uncovered. Flowers are tender and sweet in stir-fries! An ancient variety was first cultivated for seed in northwest Asia and brought to us by the Kitazawa Seed Company in California.

Characteristics:

• Organic, non-GMO, and open-pollinated 
• Essential salad leaf 
  
• Spicy mustard flavor 

Instructions - Direct seed as soon as soil can be worked. Sow every 3 weeks into fall for a continuous harvest. Harvest leaves as desired. Use floating row cover when planting to protect from flea beetles.

• For baby leaf: plant 1/4" deep 
  
• For baby leaf: row spacing: 2/3" between bands
• For full size: thin to 6" 
• For full size: row spacing: 18"

Harvest & Storage - Harvest when leaves are ~3” tall by cutting 1” from the ground or pick individual leaves for cut and come again.
