I love playing scientist at the farm. We strive to establish what conditions our crops need to thrive, not just grow. Using the right seeding density is one such variable that is very important for good germination. Have a lovely day, Matt 🧑🌾

Germination is the tricky bit of growing microgreens🌱🌱Each variety needs slightly different conditions, temperature, humidity etc. It’s an amazing stage when you see this tiny seed spring into action its truly beautiful. We have a germination chamber at the farm so we can provide our little greens perfect conditions during this stage allowing them to thrive. Have an awesome day, Team Cheeky Harvest 🧑🌾
