Mustard greens going to seed?

I've already gotten alot of mustards this year, I grow them in a large flower pot. I picked the last bunch the other day. Now they look leggy and are going to seed. Will this plant produce more or should I pull it and start a new batch? We love our mustard greens.

Mustard greens going to seed?
Mustard is a cool season plant usually. Here in Georgia we start seed in the fall and let the frost fall on them and pick through out the winter. If you have plans to plant other veggies in the same pots, like tomatoes or peppers, you can cut the blooms off and lay them in a ventilated spot on top of a solid colored sheet or paper and collect the seed for next years planting. The blooms are pretty though in everybodys garden, but it's time to plant those tomatoes, cherry tomatoes are good for pots. Have fun and Happy Growing
