Even though we got a late start planting the mustard this fall it grew really well with the nice weather we had. I opted to chop and till under before flowering as I wanted the mustard to have plenty of time to fumigate the soil, waiting a few more weeks for it to flower did not make sense. I get asked allot if you need "farm equipment" to plant and care for mustard. As you can see the answer is no, as pap is chopping the mustard on high with a lawn mower. We have also in the past just worked the mustard under with a rear tine tiller. The better you can chop up the mustard cells, the better the release of glucosinolates.
