🌱 Germination & Sowing

Direct sow shallowly in a clean, well-prepared bed and thin for healthy leaf growth. Fenugreek and mustard may also suit containers with good drainage. Use original packet depth, spacing and temperature guidance. Keep soil evenly moist but never saturated while seeds establish.

☀️ Light, Soil & Plant Spacing

Use fertile draining soil in good light and protect leafy greens from severe drying or prolonged heat where applicable. Work fully decomposed compost into soil where appropriate and provide draining containers if growing in pots.

💧 Irrigation & Fertiliser

Water established plants at soil level when upper soil starts to dry. Maintain steady moisture during root growth, leaves or flowering, and avoid cycles of waterlogging and severe drying. Feed moderately using a crop-appropriate fertiliser strictly at its label rate if needed.

🌼 Plant Development

Keep beds open and airy, inspect new leaves weekly and avoid damaging shallow roots.

🐛 Pests & Diseases

Inspect for aphids, flea beetles, caterpillars and leaf spots. Remove badly affected leaves and avoid splashing water. Improve hygiene, airflow and crop rotation; use approved crop treatments only when needed, following the legal label and pre-harvest intervals.

🧺 Harvest

Cut tender mature greens, leaving some young growth for continued leaf harvest if the crop permits; wash before using. Actual maturity depends on variety, season and care. Wash harvested produce before use.
