Slow Bolt Arugula (Eruca vesicaria sativa) takes that flavor and pairs it with a trait that serious gardeners value - a significantly extended harvest window before the plant runs to seed. Standard arugula bolts fast once warm weather arrives, turning bitter and unusable in days. Slow Bolt is bred to resist that rush, giving you 1-2 additional weeks of productive harvest during warm spells. Harvest outer leaves when they reach 3-5 inches long for the mildest, tenderest flavor. This cut-and-come-again variety rebounds for 2-3 harvests per plant when picked regularly. A cool-season crop at heart, Slow Bolt performs from early spring through late fall in most climates. Sow directly in the garden or start indoors 2-4 weeks before last frost and transplant out. Baby leaves are table-ready in as little as 30 days - arugula is among the fastest-maturing greens a home gardener can grow. It grows equally well in raised beds, traditional garden beds, containers, and indoor setups for microgreens or hydroponic growing year-round.
