Southern Giant Mustard Greens Seeds – Non-GMO Heirloom

bright green leaves that carry a lively horseradish-like bite. Quick, cold hardy, and productive, mustard greens are a Southern staple and a fast, satisfying crop for cool-season gardens. Who it's for Ideal for beginners and anyone who loves greens with a kick. Mustard is one of the fastest, easiest leafy crops you can grow, ready in just a few weeks, so it suits impatient gardeners and small spaces, and it thrives in the cool weather of spring and fall. How & when to plant Sow mustard seeds directly in cool weather, in early spring or fall, planting them about a quarter to half an inch deep. They sprout fast, in about 5 to 10 days. Grow mustard in full sun to part shade, thinning or spacing plants about 6 to 12 inches apart, and sow a fresh row every few weeks for a steady supply. Growing & care Mustard likes cool weather and steady moisture, which keep the leaves tender and their flavor balanced; heat and dryness make them sharper and cause bolting. Give it even water and pick young for milder greens. It is quick enough to grow between slower vegetables. Harvest Start cutting the outer leaves once they are a few inches long, usually around 40 to 50 days, or pick whole young plants. Younger leaves are milder and good raw, while mature leaves are spicier and best cooked. Harvest regularly for the freshest flavor. Benefits & uses Southern Giant mustard is as versatile as it is zesty. Braise or saute the greens in the Southern style, add them to soups and stir-fries, or use the tender young leaves raw to add a peppery lift to salads and sandwiches. Bold, fast, and full of flavor.
