Timing: Direct sow as early as four weeks before the last frost date, and continue sowing through early autumn.
Seeding: Sow the fertile seeds 5mm-1cm (1/4-1/2") deep. Mustard seeds do not require warm soil to germinate. Thin to 15-20cm (6-8") apart and keep moist until established.
Growing: Nearly any relatively fertile soil in full sun (or even partial shade) will suit the Mustard family. They tend to germinate well and grow very quickly. 6.0-6.5 is the ideal PH range. Treat as cut-and-come-again, or allow plants to mature to their full size. Mustard is quite cold hardy. With frost protection, plants may produce until the following spring. If any plants bolt, remove them promptly before they set seed.
