Mustard 'Felicia' is a high-quality cover crop that sprouts quickly and enriches the soil with organic matter. Due to its high nitrogen content, it promotes plant growth, while the sulfur released helps repel pests such as May beetle larvae and slugs.
Since 'Felicia' contains a significant amount of sulfur, its application is especially effective after brassica vegetables. However, it should be avoided after cabbage or radish to prevent disturbing the nutrient balance in the soil. When planting, it is recommended to incorporate the plant before flowering – when stems are soft and leaves are tender – which ensures maximum absorption of beneficial elements.
Mustard 'Felicia' also has the ability to improve soil structure, making it more loose and permeable. This makes it an ideal choice for those seeking sustainable garden development without the use of chemical fertilizers. When used correctly, it becomes a powerful tool in the fight against weeds and fungal diseases, while simultaneously increasing soil fertility.
