This variety germinates quickly, tolerating both cold and heat very well. Also widely appreciated as a cut-and-come-again crop. <br><br> <b>WHEN TO PLANT</b> <br><br> For best results, direct-sow every 3 weeks from mid-March to April and again in September for a fall/winter crop. <br><br> <b>GROW PATTERNS AND TIMING</b> <br><br> Astro Arugula can be harvested as baby arugula or grown as a full-size crop.
