Mizuna is a fast growing leafy green that produces rosettes with finely divided leaves. Plant in full sun or partial shade in soil amended with plenty of compost, and feed with a high nitrogen fertilizer. It will also grow very well in containers. If growing in a container, we recommend using Fox Farm Ocean Forest potting soil.
Planting your 6 pack: Plant each cluster of seedlings 6-8 inches apart. You may also divide the clusters of seedlings and plant them 4-8 inches apart, and water in after planting.
Harvest by picking off the outer leaves of the rosette, plants will regrow from the center. Or, you may shear the entire plant off at the top leaving about 1 inch from the base to re-grow, they will re-grow many times. When weather begins to warm up, harvest entire plants before they begin to bolt. The leaves add a striking color, texture and flavor to any salad mix. The leaves may also be lightly steamed, sauteed, or added to stir frys.
