How to Save Seeds
Mustard greens will cross pollinate with other mustard greens within the same species, though not necessarily with all members of the mustard family. Be sure to identify each species before planting multiple varieties nearby.
For maintaining seed purity, separate compatible mustard varieties by at least 1 mile whenever possible.
Allow plants to mature fully and naturally produce seed pods. Once the seed pods have dried completely on the plant, harvest them carefully before they begin splitting open.
Dry harvested pods thoroughly if needed, then remove the seeds and store them in labeled airtight containers or envelopes in a cool dry location until ready for future planting.
