Description

While Renee's Garden seeds are not all certified organic, they do not sell treated or GMO seeds and have signed the ""Safe Seed Pledge.

Prepare a fine seedbed for ‘Wasabi Arugula’ Gourmet Herb and keep the shallow sowing zone evenly moist while seedlings emerge. Thin according to the intended harvest stage: closer spacing can suit young leaves, while mature heads need more room. In warming weather, evaluate soil moisture and plant condition frequently instead of following a universal schedule. Pick outer leaves or cut mature plants at the stage you prefer. Record sowing and harvest dates to refine timing for the next planting.

Before sowing ‘Wasabi Arugula’ Gourmet Herb, review the packet alongside the current product details and note any range in temperature, germination, or maturity. Ranges reflect biological and seasonal variation rather than a fixed promise. Label each planting with its date and location, then compare emergence, growth, and harvest with local weather. This record is useful for succession plantings and for deciding whether the crop fits better into an earlier or later seasonal window.

Planting & Care

Soil & Water:Keep seed bed consistently moist. Plant directly into well worked soil in full sun or a spot that receives partial afternoon shade.

Planting & Growing: Sow directly into well worked soil, one inch apart and barely cover. Remove edible flower stalks if they form so as not to diminish leaf quality.

Harvesting & Storage:Begin harvesting seedlings when several inches tall. Leave remaining seedlings to pick individual leaves when 3-4 inches long or snip entire rosette about 1 inch above the crown and let plants regrow for extended harvest. This variety stays leafy so you can use it all season. Extremes in heat increases pungent taste.
