Combines the speed of Salad Rocket and the flavour of Wild Rocket. An upright habit, so keeps the attractive serrated leaves clean and disease free. Pungency increases as the plants develop. Best cut as small leaves. Slow to bolt.
Sow from April to July in any good fertile, well drained soil. Sow thinly 6mm (ΒΌ inch) deep in drills spaced 45-60cm (18-24 inches) apart.
When the seedlings are large enough to handle thin out to 23-30cm (9-12 inches) apart.
Pick the young leaves as required over the whole row rather than just one or two plants as this would weaken them. As the flower buds appear pinch them out to prolong cropping.
