Chinese Mustard Seeds - Shuidong, Heirloom

How to Grow Shuidong Mustard

Start by planting your seeds about 1/4 inch deep, and about 6 inches apart. Thin the plants to 10 inches apart by harvesting the smaller plants if you are planning on growing them to full size and maturity. Keep the soil moist by watering weekly, more if necessary. If you are growing baby greens, keeping them at 6 inches apart is fine. For a continual harvest, plant a new row every two weeks or so, these grow quickly and will be fully grown in 6 weeks or less!.

Harvesting Shuidong Mustard

At full maturity, harvest the entire plant by cutting it at the base. The plant will mature by 35-45 days from when they first sprout. This variety of mustard is milder than many other varieties making it popularly used at maturity.

It’s also fine to grow for the baby greens, they definitely are sweeter! At about three weeks from sprouting, individual plants can also be harvested in the same way, by cutting them off at the base.

Culinary Tips

Shuidong mustard is sweet and delicious and is served and prepared in many ways. One nice idea is to dice the greens and stir fry them with a bit of ginger as part of a meat dish, like bacon or pork strips (or tofu)!
