Answer:
yes... & just about any plants that will fit, given all of their other needs are met. Like space, soil type, temperature, humidity, & light. There are gardeners worldwide who use their greenhouses year round as permanent horticultural havens. Mustard is a pretty hardy, durable plant. I don't know its' specific needs, but remember seeing wild fields of it every spring. I lived in the San Francisco Bay Area, so the weather's not very extreme, however. Good resources for info on how-to do what you have in mind, Mother Earth News, Whole Earth Catalog, & anything by Rodale Press is reliable, too. I used to read the magazine, 'Organic Gardening & Farming' from cover to cover every month during the '70's & '80's. Lots of good useful info there. Don't hesitate to dig into back issues! Good luck & bountiful harvests to you .

How fun! Ya know, it wouldn't hurt to try those mustard seeds. Do some online research regarding their needs-- soil temp, water, sunlight etc. If I had a greenhouse, I'd try growing weed (what? It's *legal* here), and maybe some other herbs such as basil and thyme. Ooh! I'd also try green beans and perhaps cucumbers. Sounds like a blast. There's nothing like digging in the dirt in the middle of winter. Look into ventilation as well
