Microgreens

 Micro greens are one of the most easy to grow highly nutrient plants that can be grown in a small space in your home. This is interesting to know that Micro greens can be grown from any type of seeds from such a  food item  that be consumed in daily life whether those are pulses, Green leafy vegetables,Chickpeas,Veggies or anything .It has been scientifically proved that micro greens have more amount of nutrition than the plant itself therefore it should be grown and included in the daily diet.

Methods of growing Micro greens : 

Micro greens can be easily grown through two simple methods in small and shallow containers .

Firstly , soaking seeds in water overnight and then planting them in the soil.

Second  method which is  more successful method involves keeping seeds wrapped  in a moist  paper napkin for two days or until seeds germination can be visible.

Step by Step explanation of Growing micro greens by second method

                            These are fenugreek and Moong bean/Green gram seeds which were wrapped in moist paper towel for two days and now germination can be seen in them clearly                             







                                                          

It is the time to sow the germinated seeds in the soil for growing micro greens. I have used Disposable Glasses for growing micro greens and we can use even any type of small and shallow containers available at our place 

                                                           

         Moong beans and Fenugreek seeds are sown in Disposable glasses here in below images






It should be mentioned here that micro greens should be harvested at the time when two leaves are visible on the stems germinated from the seeds                                                                                  





The above micro greens are ready to harvest and can be used in dips ,salads, savory pancakes and soups and many other cuisines to add flavor and nutrients .
