Rucola (Seedtape)

Latin name: Eruca sativa Mill.

Rucola, also known as rocket, is a delightful leafy vegetable that thrives in various growing conditions. This seed tape offers a simple and effective way to cultivate fresh, aromatic leaves that add a peppery flavor to your dishes.

With its quick growth cycle, rucola is perfect for gardeners looking to enjoy multiple harvests throughout the summer. The young leaves, measuring around 10–12 cm, are at their best after just 3–4 weeks of growth. Whether you’re adding it to salads, using it as a garnish, or pairing it with cheese, rucola enhances any meal.

Here’s why using seed tape can be beneficial:

• Ensures even seed distribution, leading to larger and better-quality harvests.
• Seeds germinate more quickly when provided with adequate moisture.
• Easy to plant—simply water the soil, cover the tape, and keep it moist.

This seed tape is suitable for various growing environments, including windowsills, pots, and outdoor beds. For the best results, consider sowing seeds multiple times during the season to maintain a fresh supply of these delightful leaves.
