How to Plant Microgreens

Posted on May 13, 2021

Microgreens are a great addition to any garden. They provide an incredible amount of color, texture and taste and can easily be planted in most any garden environment.

Planting microgreens is very easy and will add a lot of color to the area. The idea is to put them in every place that you can, which includes the ground, raised beds, raised flower beds and containers. This will give you lots of new, beautiful plants in your garden and increase the value of your home.

Growing microgreens in containers can be easy too. There are some very beautiful plants available to make your container garden the talk of the neighborhood. Choose a size that will suit your needs, but will provide enough for the home and little extra for the rest of the garden.

The best way to start the care of microgreens is to make sure they are well watered, planted and fed throughout the growing season. Keep them in an area where they get full sun, but also protection from frost. This will ensure the health of the plants and make them bloom like you want them to.

The next step in caring for these amazing plants is feeding them. All you need to do is keep a consistent supply of microgreens feeding with a fertilizer that is a blend of organic ingredients. These products provide the plant with the nutrients it needs to thrive. You should see growth and yields from time to time and keep the soil evenly moist at all times to keep the microgreens happy.

When it comes to the best time to plant these plants the flowering season is the best time. During this time they are ready to produce as many flowers as possible. This is the best time to plant them because they are ready to flower, but they are dormant during the winter. You do not want to water them then either as the roots will freeze when it gets cold. The best time to plant them is spring.

During the first year of growth, there will be a lot of new leaves and the ones that will remain are the healthier ones. A good idea is to rotate these plants throughout the year and add more to your garden every season so you never run out of them.

The most important thing to remember when caring for these plants is to take care of them and they will take care of you. Give them plenty of sunlight, water and fertilizer and give them a break once in awhile. They need the rest and space to grow and thrive.

Microgreens can make a great family heirloom and add a wonderful touch to the garden. Many people just plant them without realizing what a gorgeous plant they are until they are ready to harvest their lovely fruits. Many enjoy their little crop of microgreens and often save them for personal use.

Adding microgreens to your existing garden is a wonderful way to add color and texture and provides a good environment for the plant to thrive. They add just the right amount of color and flavor to the lawn or flower bed.

The beauty of microgreens is the many different plants that you can put them in. No matter how small or large you get your microgreens, they will be just as beautiful.

Plant them in containers to enjoy them year round. You can also save the seeds and save the microgreens for the future. The seeds will produce the next season, and microgreens are a plant that will give you years of enjoyment.
