The sad state of food today:

Fresh, safe, and economical produce is not the grocery store norm.

Fresh, safe, and economical produce is not the grocery store norm.

Did you know that the average head of lettuce travels 1,500 miles from farm to plate?

It is becoming increasingly more difficult to get fresh, safe, affordable produce.

You may not have an abundance of time or space to invest in a large garden.

You may feel overwhelmed and not know where to start in growing your own food.

You shouldn’t have to settle for sub-par produce for yourself and your family.

Everyone should have access to sustainable, fresh, and healthy food no matter where they live or how much time they have.

That's Why We Love Microgreens!

That's Why We Love Microgreens!

Microgreens are baby vegetable and herb greens that are harvested when they’re just a few inches tall. Because they’re harvested early on in their growth cycle, microgreens have a high concentration of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants.

4 Reasons to Grow Microgreens:

  • Microgreens have 40 times the nutrients of “true leaves” on mature plants.

  • Microgreens grow quickly. Many microgreens grow from seed to harvest in under 7 days

  • Microgreens can be grown all year long indoors no matter where you live or what the weather is like.

  • Growing microgreens is cost effective.

Purchasing microgreens in the store will cost, on average, $3.75 an ounce. When you grow them yourself it will cost an average of $.60 an ounce. That is a MASSIVE savings!

Upon the arrival of my kit, I was impressed with not only the quality of the materials used for The Good Box but the additional information provided. This was an excellent enhancement and something not included in other kits. My 10-year-old son and I loved watching the rapid growth from sprouting to greens. It truly is fail-proof! It is rewarding to eat a good organic product that we grew ourselves. Can’t wait to read about what type of microgreens we will grow next!

Here’s How it works:

Grow Microgreens in 5 Easy Steps!

No-Fail Step 1

Run both sides of jute mate under water. Make sure it is saturated. It will turn a dark brown color and feel heavy.

No-Fail Step 2

Scatter the seeds evenly over the mat and place the lid on the box. Keep an eye on the mat, don’t let it dry out.

No-Fail Step 3

Once microgreens have sprouted (usually 3 days or so) take off the lid and set it under the grow box. Place box where it will get plenty of natural light.

No-Fail Step 4

Check the mat daily and keep it wet. A light spray with the kitchen faucet works great. Rotate the box for even growth.

No-Fail Step 5

Harvest in 4-7 days by snipping off at mat level with clean scissors. Wipe the tray off with a clean cloth, and get ready to grow some more!

Yes, seeds that contain gluten, such as barley and wheat, are gluten-free at the microgreen stage.

No. Micgroreens only need sunlight and water as they contain all they need to sprout, grow and survive.

Root hair, also called cilia, is a natural structure of the root that helps to increase surface area and reaches into the water. Sometimes it can be hard to tell the difference between mold and root hair. Here are some things to look for:

  • Root hairs are fuzzy; mold is like a spider web
  • Root hairs are not slimy; mold is
  • Root hairs have no odor; mold smells musty
  • Root hairs will disappear after rinsing and come back in a few hours; mold does not disappear after rinsing
  • Root hair is found on the root part; mold is located above the soil levels or between microgreens.

Microgreens like to rest on each other while growing; check that you have sown seeds densely enough. It might also be past time to harvest.

Microgreens that are weak and leggy may have spent too long in the dark or not gotten enough light. Yellow microgreens are expected in the blackout period since the chlorophyll in the leaves has not carried out photosynthesis. When micros are placed in the light, they will turn green.

The jute grow mat must remain wet but not soaking throughout the growing period. Do not let the mat dry out at any time. You can also spritz microgreens with a mister for additional moisture.
