Once a rare delicacy, renowned for its peppery, nutty, mustard-like bite, arugula has a delectable flavor, unlike any other green, when the leaves are young and tender. Leaves are best cut at 2 to 3 inches long. Older leaves lose tenderness and can become bitter but are often used in soups and stews. The plant is considered a superfood for its nutrient rich content, having high (top 20) Aggregate Nutrient Density Index score (ANDI), or micronutrient-per-calorie density.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eThis herbaceous annual is a member of the cabbage and mustard family (Brassicaceae), often referred to as crucifers or brassicas. It germinates easily and grows quickly (it's called rocket for a reason), yielding thick greens within weeks of planting. Cutting stimulates new leaf growth, so a single plant keeps producing over a long season. But succession plantings every 2 to 3 weeks is recommended for continual harvest.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eArugula prefers full sun to dappled shade and rich, moist soils. It is pest and disease resistant and cold tolerant. The plant is self-pollinating and will bear fruit without any pollen from other varieties, but will also cross-pollinate, possibly with different species. \u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eA cool-season vegetable, one of the first to be planted in the garden, arugula can be direct sown into the garden in early spring before the last frost date. Direct sowing is preferred, but it can also be started indoors and transplanted, spring and fall. It needs cold temperatures to germinate and grow.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eIf you plan to start your seeds indoors, be sure to check out our  \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.parkseed.mom\/collections\/bio-domes\"\u003eBio Dome Seed Starter Kit\u003c\/a\u003e.

The long, slender roots are firm and crunchy. And the best part—every color has a slightly different flavor.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eGrowing 7 to 8 inches long beneath lush, peppery tops that reach 12 to 14 inches high, these roots are packed with terrific flavor.

It really stands up to early blight, leaf blight, black rot, and root-knots—many of the worst scourges of the carrot patch.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eAs you know, homegrown carrots are higher in vitamins A and B than their store-bought counterparts, not to mention calcium and phosphorus.

Heavy soils are one of the few serious problems for carrots, so prepare the soil thoroughly before planting or, if you are in a clay soil area, consider growing in raised beds or containers. Carrots also need moisture to keep their roots from splitting. With these needs met, they are virtually trouble free.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eSow the seeds an inch apart and then thin them when the seedlings emerge, or space the seeds 4 to 6 inches apart and do not thin.
