DESCRIPTION :

WheatGrass Microgreen have become recognized as a great option for lowering cholesterol in your body, helping to reduce the risk of several types of cancer, and even helping to prevent cardiovascular disease. These microgreens have plenty of vitamin K, C, and A; all of which are essential to good skin.

Microgreens are young vegetable greens that are approximately 1–3 inches (2.5–7.5 cm) tall. They have an aromatic flavor and concentrated nutrient content and come in a variety of colors and textures. Microgreens are considered baby plants, falling somewhere between a sprout and baby green.

Microgreens are usually harvested 7–21 days after germination, once the plant’s first true leaves have emerged. Microgreens are more similar to baby greens in that only their stems and leaves are considered edible. This means that the plants can be bought whole and cut at home, keeping them alive until they are consumed. Microgreens are very convenient to grow, as they can be grown in a variety of locations, including outdoors, in greenhouses and even on your windowsill.

A good growing medium, such as a container filled with potting soil or homemade compost. Alternatively, you can use a single-use growing mat specifically designed for growing microgreens.  Proper lighting — either sunlight or ultraviolet lighting, ideally for 12–16 hours per day.
