misome
Misome plants grown within a nutrient film technique system.
Misome (Brassica campestris narinosa) is a highly
attractive and productive Asian green with a degree
of heat resistance, making it a good choice for
intercropping with tomatoes, peppers, and other
warm-season crops. Growth rates are rapid, with
production times as low as 20 days in NFT systems.
Under hydroponic production, misome is typically
grown to a young stage as a micro green or for baby
leaf salad mixes. The mature plant, with its thick,
crisp light green stems, makes a great addition to
cooked dishes such as soups and stir fries.
tatsoi
Tatsoi thrives in solution culture hydroponic systems.
Tatsoi (Brassica rapa var. rosularis), also called spoon
mustard or spinach mustard, is an under-utilized Asian
green. Individual baby leaves are commonly seen in
salad mixes, but the mature plant is short and compact
and forms a dense rosette of attractive rounded leaves.
Tatsoi is mild in flavor, and it grows rapidly under
hydroponic production. If growing mature plants, it’s
ideal to space them five to six inches; however, a higher
density can be used for baby leaf production.
