(47 days) Open pollinated.

Also known as Roquette or Rocket. Musky green and its piquant blossoms will spice up your salad. The best-tasting and most bolt-resistant of the strains in our 2017 trials. (We didn’t include Ice-Bred in those tests; we know its complex flavor and its heftier price.). Stood temperatures down to 14° double-covered under row cover.

Additional Information

Greens

  • Days to maturity are from emergence after direct seeding.
  • All greens are open-pollinated except where noted.

    Culture: When to harvest greens? Research from trials conducted in England and Kenya showed looseleaf lettuce, red chard and arugula harvested in the evening had a longer shelf life than when picked in the morning.

    Arugula

    • About 11,700-15,000 seeds/oz.
    • Also known as Roquette or Rocket. Musky green and its piquant blossoms will spice up your salad.

    strong>Culture: Prefers cool temperatures; direct seed as early as possible in spring. Optimum germination temp 40–55°. Bolts in heat; avoid the heat and grow as a fall crop, or make succession plantings every 1-2 weeks. Use row covers to discourage flea beetles. Let part of a spring crop go to seed and get a self-sown September and October patch that is delicious and has no flea beetle damage! A prime ingredient in tangy mesclun mixes. Frequent watering will reduce its pungency. Suitable for microgreens.

    Saving Seed: Saving arugula seed is easy! Let your spring sowing of arugula bolt. The flowers develop into narrow seed pods. Once pods dry on the stems, they can be easily broken open for seed.
