Answers to our most FAQs
What are Microgreens?
Microgreens are the young seedlings of newly germinated, edible plants, such as broccoli, red cabbage and radish. These young shoots are up to nine times denser in nutrients, antioxidants and polyphenols, than their older, larger plants, making them not only very tasty but also bursting with health benefits.
Why are Microgreens considered a Superfood?
Microgreens have high nutritional density, and are up to 40x more nutritiously dense than their mature versions. Microgreens contain many vitamins and minerals and are eaten for their health benefits.
What makes Mircogreens so good for me?
All Microgreens contain Beta carotene from which the body makes vitamin A, Carotenoids – lutein and zeathanthin, Vitamin C, Vitamin K, Calcium, Polyphenols (formerly called Antioxidants). In addition to the nutrients listed above, each Microgreen has a good source of other nutrients available in our health benefits section.
How do I use Microgreens?
You can add them to salads, smoothies, sprinkle them over soups, stir them into stews and add them to stir-fries, curries, risottos, pasta bakes and casseroles – the sky’s the limit!
How much do I need and how long will a bag last?
A 50g bag contains approximately 15,000 seeds and will grow 15+ trays of microgreens when grown using standard microgreen trays.
For best results, we recommend using 1 block of coir per 50g bag.
Can I grow Microgreens without a garden?
Microgreens are incredibly easy to grow, even for the least green-fingered of people! Whether you live in a studio apartment or a sprawling mansion, you only need a small space to place your kitchen windowsill garden. There’s no need to worry about seasons – these little wonders grow all year round!
Can I grow Microgreens all year round?
Yes! That is one of the many benefits of microgreens. They can be grown on your windowsill or any shelf inside your home all year round.
What if my seeds don't grow?
All our seeds are covered by our Happy Harvest Guarantee. If you have any issues, we’re here to help with advice and support.
I am a serial plant killer - how do I know this will work for me?
We've converted thousands of plant killers into successful growers! Sharing our knowledge from urban farming we have created inclusive fool proof instructions and also have videos available that you can access should you need extra guidance. We also have a private facebook group you will be invited to join.
Do your seeds have an expiry date?
For best results, we recommend sowing your seeds soon after receiving them. However, if stored in a cool, dry place away from damp, seeds can remain viable for a long time.
Seeds are remarkably resilient. In fact, scientists have successfully germinated ancient seeds thousands of years old, showing just how long seeds can hold onto life when stored well.

How are microgreens different from cress?
Confusingly, the term ‘cress’ also has a second meaning. Once a sprout grows its first leaves, it becomes a cress. Microgreens are harvested when they have developed their first set of leaves which are called cotyledons. Depending on the Kit you choose we have over 16 varieties of Microgreens available.
