Where It Fits
Best Uses for Tendergreen Mustard
Tendergreen Mustard fits best where a fast-growing leafy mustard is desired for specialty production, brassica diversity or inclusion in a custom planting program.
Establishment & Management
Planting Tendergreen Mustard
Good seed-to-soil contact, shallow placement and adequate moisture during emergence are important when establishing small-seeded brassicas.
Seedbed
A firm, well-prepared seedbed can improve seed placement and help maintain consistent moisture around the seed during establishment.
Planting Depth
Mustard seed is small and should generally be planted shallow rather than placed deeply in the soil profile.
Moisture
Adequate moisture during germination and early growth is important for obtaining a uniform stand.
Mix Management
When included in a mixture, seeding proportion should be balanced against the establishment speed and growth habits of the companion species.
Custom Mixing
Use Tendergreen Mustard in a Custom Mix
Tendergreen Mustard can be considered as a component in custom brassica or multi-species mixtures when its growth habit and intended use fit the planting objective. Weaver Seed can help develop custom formulations around specific field, production and management goals.
