Salada Musume Burdock Seeds. Non-GMO, Heirloom, Cool-season Annual. Burdock has been grown for centuries, mainly in China and Japan, for its culinary and medicinal uses. It is grown primarily for its crisp roots, but the leaves and stems are also edible. Salada Musume is an early, light-skinned, edible burdock or gobo that grows 12-16\" long. This relatively short length makes it suitable for home gardens. In Japan, this variety is used fresh for salad and has a pleasant earthy aroma. Approximately 1,900 seeds per oz.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c!--split--\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eBurdock Seeds - Musume - Heirloom\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003c!--attr--\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLatin Name:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003cem\u003eArctium lappa\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDays to Maturity:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e85-100 days\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDays to Germination:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e3-7 Days\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeeding Depth:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eUncovered\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlant Width:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e12-24 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRow Spacing:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e18-36 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlant Height:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e36-48’\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrowth Habit:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eLarge leaves branching out off a main stem; Can grow tall. \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSoil Preference:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Fertile, well-drained soil.

Improve germination by soaking for 24 hours in warm water. Scarification of seeds can also help. Cover very lightly as light improves germination. Keep the seedbed moist. Thin out the weak seedlings. After germination, the seedlings grow quickly. If sowing in seed trays, transplant into a permanent growing space as soon as possible and before a taproot begins to form.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePinch off the flowers as they appear to concentrate plant energy on tuber production.

Prepare the roots by rubbing off the bark with the back of a knife. Cut thin slices and soak in water for about 2 hours to remove bitterness. Try a classic Japanese dish called kimpira made with shaved pieces of burdock, julienned carrots, and celery, all stir-fried in sesame oil with soy sauce, rice wine, sugar, and hot peppers. The young roots can be eaten raw like a carrot.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSeeds Per Package\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1 g packet - Approximately 65 Seeds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c!--split--\u003e","brand":"Kitazawa Seed Company","offers":[{"title":"1g Packet","offer_id":50290362089709,"sku":"58263","price":3.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0709\/6048\/0493\/files\/TLCN-59952-Burdock_-_Salada_Musume_8c3d1db2-efc0-4861-8cec-c574c577332c.webp?v=1784158939","url":"https:\/\/tlmwholesale.com\/products\/burdock-seeds-salada-musume-kz","provider":"True Leaf Wholesale","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
