  • Fast-Growing: Ready for harvest in as little as 14-21 days from sowing.
  • F1 Hybrid Variety: A specially bred variety for consistent growth and high yields.
  • Nutrient-Rich: Packed with vitamins A, C, and K, as well as antioxidants.

Growing Information:

  • Soil: Prefers well-drained, fertile soil, with a slightly acidic to neutral pH (6.0-7.0).
  • Light: Thrives in bright light. Provide 12-16 hours of light daily for optimal growth. Ideal for indoor growing with grow lights.
  • Temperature: Grows best in temperatures between 50°F and 75°F (10°C to 24°C).
  • Spacing: Plant microgreens about 1 inch apart, either in a shallow tray or flat.

Care Tips:

  1. Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist, but avoid waterlogging. Mist regularly for humidity or water from below to prevent mold growth.
  2. Air Circulation: Ensure proper airflow to prevent fungal infections and promote healthy growth.
  3. Thinning: If growing in a dense patch, thinning out some plants will improve air circulation and reduce competition for nutrients.

Harvesting:

  • Timing: Ready for harvest in just 14-21 days, when the leaves are about 2-3 inches tall.
  • Method: Snip the leaves just above the soil line using sharp scissors. For a continuous harvest, leave a small portion of the plant intact and it may regrow.
