As a hardy leafy green that provides peppery and tangy flavor, Red Giant Mustard is a vegetable that is commonly grown for its culinary and herbal benefits.

Once your plants reach maturity, Red Giant Mustard develops crimped burgundy-colored variegated green leaves that grow 10\" long!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMustard is currently in its renaissance as a vital sprouting, microgreens, and cover crop variety grown just as popularly on the kitchen counter as in the garden bed. Mustard leaf features a wide selection of color, flavor, and leaf types such as classic broadleaf, curly, and mizuna. As a cover crop, mustard is sown in the fall to repair and replenish depleted and hardened soils, only to be mulched back into the spring garden as an all-natural Organic \"green\" fertilizer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHarvesting Red Giant Mustard\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMost varieties of mustard are ready for harvest about 80 days from sowing. Like other Brassicas such as kale, broccoli, and collards, mustard leaf is a \"cut and come again\" crop able to produce well into the frost. Carefully cut outermost leaves from the stem while leaving rest of the plant intact.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMustard can be left in the garden to easily reseed for next season.

As a rule of thumb, it is important to never harvest more than 1\/3 to 2\/3 of the plant at one time, so that it will continue to grow. If you want to continue growing leaves longer, pluck off the flowers as they come in. Once the flowers blossom, the leaves will no longer grow.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAbout Red Giant Mustard Seeds\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRed Giant Mustard is very similar to the Japanese Giant Garnet (milder in taste-usually harvested at the baby leaf stage) and Red Garnet mustards (grown to maturity or as microgreens).

In temperate climates, also sow in the fall as the weather begins to cool. Water infrequently and deep. Watering early in the day allows excess moisture to dry out and avoid the development of fungal diseases. Kill and\/or till in the mustard a minimum of 3 weeks prior to planting any other crop in the same spot. Mustard plants tolerate droughts well due to their deep root systems that can extend as far as 5 feet down, seeking water and nutrients.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHarvesting Japanese Giant Garnet Mustard\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCut off individual leaves at any stage of growth. The greens are delicious when harvested from brand new seedlings until the flower emerges. The leaves get tough and over-pungent after the flower appears. For a continual harvest, do not remove more than 1\/3rd of the plant’s size at one time. For one large harvest, cut the plant down to the ground. Work any leftover roots or foliage into the soil for next year’s crops. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCulinary Tips\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCommonly used as a salad green, the pungent taste of hot mustard gives a depth of flavor to a salad mix that no other green can supply.
