Description
Arugula is the go-to “quick salad green”: sow, water, and start harvesting in just a few weeks. The leaves have that classic peppery, slightly nutty flavor that instantly upgrades simple salads — and it’s delicious on warm dishes too (pasta, pizza, roasted vegetables).
Growing tips
Light: sun to partial shade (partial shade helps in summer)
Soil: fertile, moisture-retentive, well-draining
Sowing depth: about 0.5–1 cm
Row spacing: about 15–25 cm
Thin to: about 5–10 cm (can be closer for baby leaf)
Watering: keep evenly moist (heat + drought = quicker bolting)
Harvest: pick young leaves; plants often regrow after cutting
Sowing window for Northern climates (Estonia / similar)
Greenhouse: March–April; again August–September
Outdoors: April–June and August–September
Succession sowing: every 1–2 weeks for steady harvest
In hot weather, arugula can bolt quickly — sow again in late summer for tender leaves.
