When to Sow 'Red Frills' Mustard Seeds
All the year round
Where to Sow
Sow thinly in a prepared seed bed 0.5cm (1/4in) deep in rows 25-30cm (10-12in) apart. Keep soil moist. Sow seed in succession every 2-3 weeks for a continuous supply of fresh young leaves. These usually germinate between 7-14 days.
What to do next
Thin seedlings to 10cm (4in) apart when large enough to handle. Cut leaves from each plant leaving some leaves on each so they re-grow. You will often get 3-4 cuttings per plant.
Harvest
All year round once matured. Plants reach maturity at around 40 days.
Handy Tip
Early and late sowings can be made in containers in a cold glasshouse. Or if short of space during the year, sow seeds thinly into containers on a sunny patio.
