Preparation
-
Soak the Seeds: Soak approximately 1/3 cup of seeds for 4-6 hours.
-
Prepare Soil: Add water to the top of the soil bag (or each tray) 12 hours ahead of use until almost fully hydrated. Rehydrate as necessary.
Day 1: Filling and Sowing
-
Fill Trays with Soil: Use a tray with holes and fill with 3/4-1.5” of soil. Smooth and flatten the soil without compacting it.
-
Sow the Seed: Spread the soaked seeds evenly over the soil. The seeds should be side by side without overlapping. Sow slightly less seed for 2-3 week microgreens.
Covering and Stacking
-
Cover the Seed: Use parchment paper, a plastic sheet, or a wet unbleached paper towel to cover the seeds. When stacking trays, use a cover directly on the seed.
-
Stack Trays: Stack 2-5 filled trays on top of each other with an empty tray on top, weighted. Stack beet, cilantro, and chard for 4 days.
Growing and Harvesting
-
Expose to Light: After 2-5 days, expose the microgreens to indirect sunlight, fluorescent, or LED grow lights.
-
Watering: Check the seeds once or twice daily and water as needed. The soil should be moist, not wet. Water from below once trays are unstacked.
-
Harvest: Harvest at 12-21 days with scissors or a sharp knife. Ensure microgreens are not damp before storing. Use a fan or salad spinner to dry if necessary.
