  8. HOW TO HARVEST ARUGULA? Timing Leaf Harvest Arugula is typically ready for harvest 3 to 4 weeks after planting when the leaves are young and tender. Harvest in the morning for the best flavor. Use clean, sharp scissors or garden shears to cut the outer leaves first, leaving the inner leaves to continue growing. Cut the leaves at the base, close to the soil. Baby Leaf Harvest Continuous Harvest Arugula is a cut-and-come-again crop. Regularly harvest the outer leaves, and the plant will keep producing. This extends the harvesting period. For baby arugula, harvest when the leaves are small, about 2-3 inches tall. Snip or cut them about an inch above the soil level. Flowering Stage Storage The leaves can become bitter if arugula bolts and starts flowering—harvest before blooming for the best taste. Immediately after harvesting, store arugula in the refrigerator. If the leaves are not consumed immediately, store them in a plastic bag with paper to soak the extra moisture.

  9. FAQ’S Question 1 Is arugula easy to grow? Yes, arugula is relatively easy to grow. It's a hardy and fast-growing leafy green that thrives in various climates. It's well-suited for garden beds and containers, making it accessible for novice and experienced gardeners alike. Question 2 How long does it take for arugula to produce? Arugula is known for its quick growth. It takes 3 to 4 weeks from planting to the first harvest. Harvesting can continue regularly, primarily if you practice the "cut-and-come-again" method, ensuring a continuous supply of fresh arugula. Question 3 What can you not plant near arugula? Arugula can be sensitive to certain companion plants. It's recommended to avoid planting arugula near members of the cabbage family (broccoli, cauliflower, cabbage) and plants susceptible to similar pests or diseases.
