It is a fast-growing cool-season plant that performs well in garden beds, containers, and as a cut-and-come-again green. Its quick maturity makes it a reliable choice for succession sowing and for adding bold flavor to the kitchen.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe young leaves bring a sharp, mustardy kick to salads, sandwiches, and stir-fries, while the mature leaves work well cooked as a pungent green. The seeds are used whole or ground as a spice in pickling, curry blends, and sauces. Plants grow in a compact upright habit, produce yellow flowers that attract pollinators, and can be harvested at multiple stages for both leaf and seed use.\u003cbr\u003e\nSpecies: Brassica nigra\u003cbr\u003e\nVariety: Black Mustard\u003cbr\u003e\nType: Annual\u003cbr\u003e\nPlant_Habit: Upright, branching\u003cbr\u003e\nSun: Full sun to partial shade\u003cbr\u003e\nSoil: Well-drained, fertile, loamy\u003cbr\u003e\nDays_to_Harvest: 30 to 40 for leaves, 80 to 95 for seed\u003cbr\u003e\nZones: 2 to 11\u003cbr\u003e\nGermination: 5 to 10 days\u003cbr\u003e\nSowing: Surface sow, lightly cover, keep moist\u003cbr\u003e\nSpacing: 6 to 12 inches\u003cbr\u003e\nNotes: Cool-season grower; sow in early spring or late summer for best leaf quality\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67663423406216,"sku":"EXGA-1400","price":19.76,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0717\/4648\/6408\/files\/download_0ce51c72-c395-4bef-b341-e6d55e9fa99b.png?v=1791897015","url":"https:\/\/www.natesgardensupply.com\/products\/50-seeds-black-mustard-brassica-nigra-edible-herb-and-leafy-green-culinary-microgreens","provider":"Nate's Garden Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
