LED lights have the capacity to deliver the ideal spectrum of light for plant growth making them highly recommended. You can mimic sunshine and create the optimum growing environment by placing the lights a few inches above the microgreens and setting them on a timer for 12–16 hours each day #growyourown #microgreens #wintervibes #sustainableurbanism #vegetablegarden
If you are growing in soil then you can easily pick a few Microgreens from the corners once big enough, being careful to not damage the roots, effectively transplanting Microgreens to larger pots. #wintervibes #sustainable #urbangarden #microgreensfarm
Microgreens can be grown year-round, even in areas with less natural sunlight, for example over winter, by using lights.

Winter has arrived, and everyone is beginning to move inside to stay warm, but can we still grow microgreens over winter? During the Winter months it can be challenging due to lower light levels and colder temperatures however, with the right setup, and attention you can successfully grow microgreens anywhere. #winter #salad #wintervegetables #vegetarian #microgreens #sustainable #affordableprices #urbangarden #healthylifestyle #vegetables #eatyourgreens
Microgreens can be grown inside and take up very little room, so anyone can grow them, regardless of the size of their home. You are able to give your meals a brilliant boost of flavour, texture, and nutrition just by adding microgreens, you'll also get the satisfaction of eating food that you grew yourself. #flavour #winter #vegetarian #salad #wintervegetables #microgreens
Transplanting Microgreens to extend their growth is a good way to get the most out of your seeds and reduce waste. If you have the space and resources, you can continue growing Microgreens to baby salads or their mature stage, ensuring you have fresh vegetables all year long. #wintervegetables #vegetables #healthylifestyle #salad #microgreens
Natural sunlight is reduced during winter due to shorter days. Fortunately, Microgreens can be grown using most lights, LED lights are both energy-efficient and provide the right spectrum of light for optimal growth. Position the lights a few inches above the microgreens to simulate sunlight and set your lights on a timer to give your greens 12-16 hours per day. #eatfresh #eatyourgreens #microgreens #vegetarian #nutritiontips #healthylifestyle
