Delicious Diversity Mesclun Mix (Organic)
30-60 days.
One of the easiest ways to celebrate edible plant diversity is to put it in your salad mix. This is our chosen salad mix for most of the year – except the hottest months. Mixed for deliciousness and beauty, with colors ranging from dark red to vivid green. Also very hardy for winter harvest, although best covered with row cover in extreme weather. Due to different seed sizes and maturity dates, this mix is recommended for the home garden. Includes: mizspoona; kale; chard; arugula; pak choi; endive; escarole; mustard; many types of lettuce; AND more!
Sow indoors in flats with good potting soil year-round. Transplant into the garden about 3-4 weeks after sprouting. Or, direct sow March through September. We recommend sowing in succession for continual harvest.
Seed Saving
Saving seed from a seed mix may be an adventure. Plants used for seed production should have more space than plants sown for salad mix, and varieties in this mix may cross. Collect seeds when seed heads are dry and brown. Dance to thresh, winnow to clean.
