 45 Days to maturity. Brassica rapa Japonica group. Early Mizuna Mustard Seeds. Heirloom, Non-GMO, Open Pollinated. Annual. Originated in the Kyoto region, this Japanese mustard is also known as Kyona Mizuna.  It is also commonly used in stir-fry and soups, and makes a great microgreen.
Our selection is a Kyoto/Kyona type, with long slender stems and dark green serrated leaves. This mustard variety is heat and cold tolerant, slow to bolt, and vigorously produces multiple branches that are easily harvested.
Excellent for sukiyaki, shabu shabu, yosenabe, ohitashi, hariharinabe, pickling, and salads.
 Suitable for harvesting at any stage, microgreens to mature plants. Cut-and-grow-again methods apply to this vegetable. Mizuna has become very popular as a salad green and is also delicious cooked.

How to Grow Early Mizuna Mustard

Prepare fertile, well-drained soil. Either seed in spring after last frost, or in mid-to-late summer for a fall harvest.. Temperatures in the mid 40's are ideal for early growth, and close to 70° for later growth. Kyona mizuna grows quickly, and multiple plantings every few weeks will extend the growing season. Keep the soil moist, watering at ground level if possible. Fertilize as needed. If growing for a fall harvest, partial shade in the summer heat is best. This variety is bolt resistant.

Harvesting Early Mizuna Mustard

The Early MIZUNA variety of MUSTARD SEEDS can be harvested in only 21 to 25 days for baby greens, although it's fully mature in 40 days. This type of mustard can reach a height of 6-8" at full growth. For optimal growth, it is recommended to harvest the lower branches, but it is also acceptable to harvest the entire plant.

If grown for the fall, a light frost just before harvesting can add sweetness to the flavor.

Culinary Tips

Versatile early mizuna mustard greens are perfect in salads, stir-fries, and as a substitute for kale or mustard greens. Try a traditional Japanese salad with mizuna, fried tofu, and a zesty dressing!
