Grow your own peppery and nutrient-rich arugula with our Organic Arugula Seeds. Perfect for salads, sandwiches, and more, these seeds will sprout into a flavorful addition to your garden. These seeds are organic, non-GMO, and heirloom so you can grow the highest quality harvest.

Instructions:

We recommend using the following to sow the seeds: 

• 12 Cavity Greenhouse or Planter with Humidity Dome
• Soil Pods 
• Liquid Fertilizer 

Arugula can also be grown as a healthy microgreen. It prefers cooler weather, and is best planted in early spring or fall and sown regularly for continual harvests. The warmer it is, the more shaded the arugula should be. Harvest the leaves when they're around 2-3" and pull off any flower buds, as flowers cause bitter leaves.
