Harvesting tips

Plant Astro anywhere on your farm and harvest greens at 3-6" for milder flavor or leave to grow larger for a more intense peppery taste. As the leaves get bigger, consider tossing with warm pasta or blending into pesto, just watch out for bolting, as this makes the leaves fibrous and astringent.

When grown indoors, Astro Arugula should be fully harvested earlier (around 3 weeks of growing) to avoid bolting.

    Grow this must have arugula every year I'm at my Colorado mountain home out on my raised deck away from the 4 legged animals! It's fast growing and delicious addition to my salads. My neighbors love getting the cuttings!
