HOW TO GROW MUSTARD
Start indoors 4-6 weeks before last frost, plant out 4 weeks before frost. For fall harvest, transplant 10 weeks before first frost, without additional protection. In a hoophouse, you can plant 2-3 weeks later. Midsummer hot weather planting leads to early bolting. Pungency increases as plant matures. More winter hardy if they have not achieved their full vegetable crop size and can fit under a standard 6” clay pot. Sow near fall equinox to over winter for highest seed production yield.
