FAQs
How soon can I harvest my Mustard Wasabina?
Harvesting typically begins 10-14 days after germination when the seedlings reach approximately 5cm in height.
Do I need to soak the seeds before planting?
No, you should not soak the seeds prior to sowing them in the compost.
How do I maintain a continuous supply?
For a constant harvest, sow a new batch of seeds every 10 days.
What temperature do these seeds need to grow?
They thrive in temperatures between 21C and 25C.
Can I grow these outside?
These are primarily intended for indoor, windowsill cultivation to ensure the necessary consistent temperature and light levels.
Troubleshooting
Seeds are not germinating
Ensure the temperature is consistently between 21-25C and the soil remains slightly moist.
Seedlings look tall and 'leggy'
This is a sign of insufficient light. Move the tray to a brighter, sunnier window or provide artificial grow lights.
Mold growth on soil surface
Reduce watering frequency and improve air circulation around the seedlings.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To begin growing, select a shallow tray or pot with good drainage and fill it with quality seed compost. Sow the seeds thickly across the surface, but avoid soaking them before planting to maintain optimal germination rates. Water the medium gently with a spray bottle to avoid displacing the seeds. Keep the container in a warm spot, ideally maintaining a temperature between 21-25C. Ensure the area remains bright; if your windowsill does not provide sufficient natural light, consider using a dedicated grow light to prevent the seedlings from becoming thin and weak. Maintain soil moisture throughout the growth cycle without waterlogging the tray.
