Planting & Care

Sow Florida Broadleaf mustard seeds directly in the garden in early spring or fall, as they prefer cool weather. Plant seeds about 1/4 to 1/2 inch deep and keep the soil evenly moist until germination, which typically occurs in 7-14 days. Thin seedlings to the recommended spacing to allow for healthy growth. For a continuous harvest, succession plant every few weeks.

Provide consistent moisture and mulch to retain soil moisture and suppress weeds. Fertilize lightly if needed, but avoid excessive nitrogen, which can lead to lush growth at the expense of flavor. Harvest outer leaves when they are young and tender, or cut the entire plant for a single harvest. Monitor for common pests like aphids and flea beetles, and use row covers if necessary.
