Rocket (Eruca sativa) gives the fastest return in a vegetable patch: a peppery salad leaf that goes from sowing to first picking in three to four weeks. It is a cut and come again crop, so one sowing keeps producing while you keep picking. This seed packet suits a bed, a raised planter or a single pot on a balcony.

What it does

  • Three to four weeks to the first cut. Few edible crops turn around that quickly, which makes it a sensible first sowing in new ground.
  • Keeps producing after picking. Take the outer leaves and the plant pushes more from the centre, so a row keeps giving rather than finishing at once.
  • Peppery, not bland. The bite is what separates it from lettuce, and it holds up in salads, sandwiches and hot pasta.
  • Undemanding. It grows well without mulching or fertiliser, which is rare in a productive crop.

How to use it

Sow into moist, well drained soil, cover lightly and keep the surface damp until the seedlings are up. Thin them to 15cm to 20cm apart for full sized plants. For baby leaves, leave them closer and sow more seed than seems necessary, because the yield from a dense patch picked young beats a thinned row. It can be sown year round across most of the country, though autumn and spring suit it best, when the flavour stays cleanest and plants are slowest to run to seed. Sow a short row every two to three weeks rather than the whole packet at once, for leaves continuously instead of a glut.

What it suits

Open vegetable beds. A row alongside slower crops uses ground that would otherwise sit idle, and finishes before the neighbours need the room.

Raised beds and planters. Loose, free draining soil at a comfortable working height gives the quickest and cleanest leaves.

Pots on a balcony. Its compact habit and shallow roots mean one decent container keeps a household in salad.

It is a mild weather leaf. Through a hot summer it runs to flower quickly and the leaves turn sharp, so treat summer sowings as a short crop. Delivered Australia wide,.
