Mesclun will regrow and provide 2–3 harvests, although the first harvest is usually the best. If you wish to harvest mature heads, cut off at 2\" above ground level as soon as possible after head forms; new leaves will grow form the center. The earlier the harvest, the more tender the crop.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eShop with confidence when you shop at Southern Agriculture.
