Mesclun 'Asian' is a delicious mixture of, among others, the following varieties: Pak choi 'Taisai', Tatsoi, Turnip greens 'Mizuna', Swiss chard 'Dark gr. Smooth White-ribbed 3', Chinese cabbage 'Garnet' and the leaf mustard varieties 'Golden Frills', 'Purple Frills' and 'Red Giant'. This mixture has a nice spicy taste and should be harvested young.
The exact composition and proportions of Mesclun 'Asian' may vary depending on seed availability; the mixture will always contain at least 6 species.
Sowing: Keep 15 cm between the rows. Sow at 1 cm in rows and later thin out at 2-3 cm. You also get a nice dense crop that is easy to cut into bundles by mixing the seeds with some sand or sugar and sowing them in a row. Then you don't have to thin out.
Harvest: after about 3 to 4 weeks (when the plants are about 10 cm high). When you cut off the young plants above the growing point, you can harvest them up to three times.
Tip: Also suitable as a baby leaf (sowing period: May-August)
