Product Description
What are Microgreens? They're baby veggie shoots grown from seed for about 10 days near a window, clipped and eaten fresh. These sassy little seedlings add a burst of intense flavors, vivid colors and crisp textures that transform any meal into a nutrient-packed gourmet experience.
They're good for you! Microgreens are small but mighty and pack a potent punch of nutrients that contribute to good health. The seed contains its own food supply that it uses to grow until it can manufacture it from soil, light and water. This stored food within the seed is responsible for its high nutrient content. In 2012, University of Maryland scientists discovered they contain 4 to 40 times more nutrients than mature veggies.
We don't always get the nutrition we need. In fact, it's questionable what the nutrient content is in what we think is nutritious or even if they're GMO and pesticide free. That's why it's always best to grow your own food. There's no easier, quicker or more nutrient packed way then growing Microgreens in your home year round.
Until now, growing Microgreens has been limited to plastic trays or recycled tins, not so good looking decor. And it's been confusing on what to buy and how to do it.
Now, with the Grow 'n Serve Microgreens Kit, you get everything you need, premeasured and ready to go with super easy instructions.

Quick growing and lovely centerpiece

I read some reviews that the planter was not included. I made the same mistake when scrolling through the seed mix options. I thought you picked which variety of seed to go with the planter. Not so. These are additional seed/soil refills to purchase for use in the planter.
That said, I planted these seeds 5 days ago. I did not cover the seeds with dirt, and I placed cardboard over the seeds and weighed it down for three days. Once seeds started sprouting, they filled in fast. This mix of radish seeds is pretty spicy.
I just bought another planter so I can rotate plantings and always have delicious, fresh microgreen salad.
Wheatgrass grew great. Around a week into its grow period

Wheatgrass grew great.
Around a week into its grow period, I ended up putting more seeds in, a LOT more, like there was a seed or 3 on top of the soil so it could be really full.
"Day 17" looks a little beat up because I gave it to my kitten about a week ago.
I've never grown wheatgrass and she's never seen it, so she's been shoving her face and paws right in the middle, especially after I mist it with water.
It looks really cool and NOW Growing at an amazing pace

it looks really cool. i received it today. the tray is smaller than expected but it looks really nice. although skeptical about the soil puck it def expanded with the warm water. i planted the seeds and they are now gathering sun. I will post an update later.
4/18/17 - this is my update and I hope you will be able to see the pic that I posted. We clipped some of the greens last night to have with some chicken sandwiches and a little wine of course. we like this kit so much that we ordered a second one that arrived today. in the new one i will be planting seeds that we had purchased with a different product that did not work out.
Grew so fast - love it

I bought this wheatgrass to use in my morning smoothies. It grew wildly within 3 days. My husband and I cut it nightly and it grows right back same-day. We have so much wheatgrass I bring some in for my coworkers to use too. Very happy with this purchase
It was easy to set up and take care of

This product is worth the 5 stars! It was easy to set up and take care of. I have only recently learned about microgreens and this was my first try. I went with the Zesty greens, they have a great zingy flavor. I put it on a west facing window sill and after only 4 days they were long enough to start snipping to use for our dinner. The kids got a huge kick out of this and enjoyed eating them which is a plus in my book! It's even more fun being able to see the roots growing in the soil.
Growing and delicious!

I have this in an east facing window as I don't have a south facing window and it is growing great. My house is pretty cold and I have had no problems at all. The greens are delicious and I cut them as needed. I add them to salads, sandwiches, and I sprinkle them over noodles and rice. Very happy with this!
Enjoying Micro Green Kit!

My seeds started sprouting after 24-hr. and are still growing great guns! So much fun to watch and we look forward to eating the micro greens on salads in a week or so more. I wondered why the seeds seemed to be sitting on the top of the soil after adding the reserved soil topping, and got immediate and helpful feedback on this question from the seller and other customers. Seems the main thing is keeping the seeds moist, which I am doing. I did add a little more potting soil to cover the seeds a bit more deeply and am also covering the seeds with saran wrap for the first few days. A fun and healthy project!

Made a fairy garden for my window sill! Love it!!!
It's an easy setup, and grows without doing anything but watering.
by St8kout (4 out of 5 stars)

It's not a bad setup, but my 'crop' didn't as tall as in the pics and made it hard to harvest. It was very dense so a very high percentage of seeds must have germinated. Some people say their plants got too 'leggy' and supposedly that's from lack of light, so I guess my plants had more than enough sunshine.
They tasted pretty good, but it's obvious you need more trays unless you want only one crop every two weeks.
The clear container does make it very easy to judge how often to water them. (I picked up a tip to water ONLY the roots, not to spray the leaves as that can lead to mold/fungus problems. You want the roots to remain moist, not the leaves.) So I watered them from one corner of the container, and could easily see through the sides if I used too much water, pouring out any excess. If you tilt it to any one corner, you should see only a little bit of water pile up. I used bottled water, pouring in about 3/4th of a bottle during the day, and another 3/4th at night. I live in a desert climate so you're amount may vary.
On a side note, I also grew sunflower microgreens (seeds bought elsewhere) in a 10x20 container. They grew fine, but the taste was WAY too powerful, overwhelming everything. Just a dozen leaves in a cup of cooked rice was too much. The powerful taste stays with you. Wish someone would have warned me as I won't be growing/eating anymore of these.
