Arugula is an herb from the mustard family, and its leaves have a pepper mustard-like flavor. They are high in vitamins A and C and are a good source of iron.

Roquette arugula has purple stems and dark-green leaves.

Arugula seeds are easy to grow, and they’re a staple of microgreen growers. The peppery taste gets less intense as it grows larger. It’s best to harvest when the first true leaves form.

Days to maturity are around 14 days when harvested as the first true leaf forms, instead of harvesting at the cotyledon stage.

Arugula is a mucilaginous seed, so it will slightly stick to a cover when using the weighted blackout method. You can also plant arugula seeds and use the domed method.

The domed method is preferred because the Arugula will grow taller. However, Arugula tends to stop growing taller when placed under lights.
