Quick and simple to grow, these seeds can be sown all year round indoors or in a warm greenhouse, ready to be enjoyed as young seedlings. Sow microgreens thickly in pots or trays, on the surface of good quality, free-draining seed compost. Do not pre-soak the seeds. Water gently to settle the soil. Grow on a bright, sunny windowsill at an average temperature of 21-25°C (70-75°F). Ensure sufficient light, as this aids germination. In winter, pots can be sealed inside a clear plastic bag or placed in a propagator to maintain adequate germination temperatures. Sow seeds every 10 days for a continuous supply.
Keep the compost consistently moist until seedlings have developed. Microgreens can be harvested from around 10-14 days after germination, when seedlings are approximately 5cm (2") tall.
To prepare the coir discs, set them on a tray or saucer, add lukewarm water, and watch them expand up to 7 times their size. Add water gradually if needed. Once expanded, drain any excess water and place each expanded pellet into one of the supplied biodegradable pots. Firm down to remove any air gaps in the pots. Water again before sowing to ensure the biodegradable pot is fully saturated and takes on a darker appearance.
