MUSTARD 
Chinese Broad Leaf (Elephant’s Ear) Mustard 
Culture. General cultural directions similar to those 
for cabbage (see page 10), but is always planted direct 
in the field or garden. Mustard is one of the quickest 
growing greens. Sow seed August to March in good 
rich garden soil in rows 24 inches apart and thin from 
8 to 10 inches in the row. Heavy fertilization with a 
fertilizer mixture high in nitrogen or ammonia, and 
moist soil are conducive for quick growth, high yield 
and good edible quality. Does best when grown in cool 
weather of late fall, winter and early spring. Makes a 
nutritious dish, high in food value, when boiled for 
greens. 
The number of days after each variety indicates the 
time from seed to harvest.
