Growing Instructions

Starting your seeds

You can start Mustard Greens seeds indoors using a heat mat to encourage germination. Once the seedlings sprout and grow a few sets of leaves, move them outdoors. Keep the soil moist and provide 4–6 hours of sunlight daily. When direct sowing Mustard Greens seeds, plant them about 1/4 inch deep in well-drained soil, spacing them 6–12 inches apart to give them plenty of space to grow.

Harvesting your seeds

To harvest collard greens, wait until the leaves are large enough to use, usually around 8-10 inches in length. Harvest the outer leaves first, using scissors or garden shears to cut them off at the base of the stem. This encourages continuous growth and allows the inner leaves to develop. Regular harvesting promotes a longer harvest period, and collard greens can be harvested throughout the growing season.
