Other Features And Applications : Microgreen wheatgrass is easy to grow and can be harvested in as little as 10 days from the seeds being sown. To avoid the wheatgrass being affected by mold, good quality seeds should be used and they should be provided with controlled air and moisture supply.

1. Prepare the Seed Tray:

• Fill the seed tray with the seed-starting mix, leaving about 1 inch of space at the top.
• Water the mix thoroughly until it’s evenly moist but not soggy.

2. Sow the Seeds:

• Sprinkle a dense layer of wheatgrass seeds evenly over the moistened seed-starting mix. You should aim for good coverage, but don’t overcrowd the seeds.
• Gently press the seeds into the mix using a flat board or the palm of your hand to ensure good seed-to-soil contact.

3. Cover the Seeds (Optional):

• You can cover the seeds with a clear plastic lid or plastic wrap to create a mini greenhouse effect, which helps with germination. This step is optional but can speed up the process.
• If you choose to cover the seeds, remove the cover once the seedlings start to emerge.

4. Provide Light and Water:

• Place the seed tray in a location with indirect sunlight or under grow lights. Wheatgrass microgreens don’t need direct sunlight.
• Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. A spray bottle works well for watering. Watering once or twice a day is usually sufficient.

5. Watch for Growth:

• Wheatgrass microgreens will begin to sprout in about 2-3 days.
• Once they are about 1-2 inches tall and have a second set of leaves (usually within 7-10 days), they are ready to harvest.

6. Harvesting:

• Harvest wheatgrass microgreens by cutting them just above the soil level using clean scissors or shears.
• Harvest when they are young and vibrant green, typically at around 7-10 days after sowing.

7. Enjoy Your Wheatgrass Microgreens:

• Wheatgrass microgreens are nutritious and can be added to salads, smoothies, or used as a garnish.

8. Regrowth (Optional):

• Some people choose to allow wheatgrass microgreens to regrow after the initial harvest. To do this, water the tray and place it back in a well-lit location. You may be able to harvest a second crop.

9. Dispose or Compost: – Once you’ve harvested your wheatgrass microgreens, you can compost the remaining soil and any leftover seed husks.
