Seed Count

Komatsuna is a highly nutritive and productive leafy green commonly found in Japanese cuisine. The name Tatsu means "dragon" – for its strong, upright plant habit and ability to withstand high heat.

  • Suitable temperature for growing: 60-80℉

Germination

  • Sow 1-2 seeds 1/2" deep and 1/2" apart in rows, with 6" between rows.
  • Cover with 1/4" soil, press gently and water well.

Thinning

  • When plants have 1-2 true leaves, thin to 1" spacing: remove any plants closer than 1" to allow remaining plants to grow.
  • At 3-4 true leaves, thin to 3" spacing.

Maintenance

  • Cultivate regularly and remove weeds.
  • Watering: allow soil to dry between waterings to prevent rot or disease issues.
