Tendergreen mustards, also known as mustard greens or Brassica juncea, belong to the Brassicaceae family. This family also includes other well-known vegetables like broccoli, cabbage, and kale. Tendergreen mustards are particularly valued for their tender leaves and mild flavor; they are an excellent addition to salads, soups, and stir-fries.

Growing tendergreen mustards is relatively easy; they thrive in cool weather and can be planted in early spring or late summer. These greens prefer well-drained soil rich in organic matter; regular watering is essential to maintain soil moisture and promote healthy growth. They can be grown in full sun or partial shade; however, they tend to bolt (produce flowers and seeds) more quickly in hot weather, which can make the leaves more bitter.

How to Save Seeds

Mustard greens will cross with other mustard greens within the same species but not the same family. So be sure to check each species before planting near another species of mustard otherwise separate by at least 1 mile. Save pods from plants once they have fully dried.
