Plant seeds about 1\/4 inch deep and keep the soil evenly moist until germination. Thin seedlings to the recommended spacing to allow for healthy growth. For a continuous harvest, sow seeds every 2-3 weeks.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eProvide consistent moisture and mulch to retain soil moisture and suppress weeds. Harvest outer leaves when they are young and tender, or cut the entire plant about 2 inches above the soil line to encourage regrowth. Mizuna Early is relatively pest-resistant but watch for flea beetles and aphids. Avoid letting plants bolt in hot weather by providing afternoon shade if needed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e500 Mizuna Early seeds for planting.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67862009970998,"sku":"FSG-188","price":11.67,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0994\/4884\/8694\/files\/il_fullxfull.7597723300_brd2.jpg?v=1793267798","url":"https:\/\/blakesflora.com\/products\/500-mizuna-early-seeds-japanese-mustard-greens-fast-growing-salad-vegetable","provider":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
