What vegetables are included in a Mesclun salad mix?
Mesclun is traditionally a mixture of young leafy greens. Depending on the seed blend, it may include different lettuce varieties, arugula, mustard greens, endive, chicory, and other salad leaves. The exact ingredients vary by supplier, creating different combinations of mild, peppery, and tangy flavors.
How do you harvest Mesclun greens for continuous growth?

Can Mesclun salad greens grow during hot weather?
