10 Easy Steps to Grow Microgreens in Your Kitchen

Have you ever wanted to grow your own microgreens but thought it was too complicated? Fear not! Follow these 10 easy steps to start growing microgreens in the comfort of your kitchen. Not only are microgreens packed with nutrients, but they also add a fresh, gourmet touch to your meals. Let's get started!

Step 1: Choose Your Seeds
Select your favorite microgreens. Some popular options include arugula, radish, basil, and kale. Make sure to purchase high-quality, untreated seeds for the best results.

Step 2: Gather Your Supplies
You’ll need a growing tray, potting soil or a soilless growing medium, a spray bottle for watering, and a sunny windowsill or a grow light.

Step 3: Prepare Your Growing Tray
Fill the tray with your growing medium, leveling it out without compacting it too much. A depth of about an inch or two should suffice.

Step 4: Sow Your Seeds
Spread the seeds evenly over the surface of the medium. They should be close together but not piled on top of each other.

Step 5: Lightly Cover the Seeds
Use a thin layer of your growing medium to gently cover the seeds. This helps keep them moist and in the dark, which aids germination.

Step 6: Water with Care
Use a spray bottle to mist your seeds. The goal is to keep the medium moist but not waterlogged.

Step 7: Provide Warmth and Darkness
Cover the tray with a lid or another tray to create a dark, warm environment. This mini greenhouse effect will encourage germination.

Step 8: Uncover and Expose to Light
Once you see the seeds have sprouted, usually after 2-3 days, remove the cover. Place the tray in a sunny spot or under a grow light.

Step 9: Water Regularly
Continue to mist your microgreens daily. They should never dry out completely.

Step 10: Harvest Time
In 1-2 weeks, your microgreens will be ready to harvest. Use scissors to snip them just above the soil line.

Congratulations! You’ve just grown your very own microgreens. Add them to salads, and sandwiches, or use them as a garnish to elevate your dishes with a burst of flavor and nutrients.

Microgreens and sprouts are two terms often used interchangeably, but they refer to distinct stages in plant growth. Microgreens are harvested slightly later than sprouts, typically after the first true leaves have developed. In contrast, sprouts are germinated seeds harvested just days after sprouting. This subtle difference impacts not only their appearance but also their flavor and texture. While sprouts have a delicate, crunchy texture and are usually grown in water, microgreens offer a wider range of flavors, textures, and culinary possibilities. From peppery arugula to earthy beet greens, experimenting with various microgreens can elevate your dishes to a whole new level. 🌱✨
