How To Farm Microgreens?

Microgreens are young vegetable greens, harvested just after the cotyledon leaves have developed. These tiny greens are packed with nutrients, flavor, and color — and the best part is, they’re easy to grow even in small spaces!

What Are Microgreens?

Microgreens are the seedlings of vegetables and herbs such as radish, broccoli, arugula, basil, and sunflower. They are harvested when they are about 1–3 inches tall.

  • Shallow trays or containers with drainage

  • Organic potting soil or growing medium

  • Quality microgreen seeds

  • Spray bottle for watering

  • Light source (sunlight or grow light)

  • High in nutrients

Start with fast-growing seeds like radish or broccoli. Maintain good air circulation. Use a heat mat in cooler environments. Keep a grow journal to track success

Important Notes

Microgreens are a simple and rewarding way to grow your own food. Whether you're looking to boost your health or just love gardening, microgreens are a great place to start!

  • Indoors: On windowsills, shelves, or under LED lights.

  • Outdoors: In shaded or partially sunny spots
