White mustard as fertiliser?
Question Body:
Currently growing white mustard as green fert, thinking of
leaving it and letting it grow to seed for next year. What should I do,should
I top it in Spring and then let it grow to seed and harvest it when I think
it is ripe enough? Any advice would be welcome.
Answer Body:
White mustard is classed as an annual so it will be best harvested this year and to sow a new batch next year. This way you will have the optimum yield each year. Next year when using it as a green fertiliser try and harvest it before it starts to set seed.
