Micro greens are used like sprouts, as a garnish, gourmet salad, or sprinkled over entrées. Create your own mixes with a variety of leaf shapes, flavors, and colors.
This fast-growing market has become tremendously popular with both growers and chefs. For growers, Micro Greens have a low start-up cost for year-round production, are relatively easy to grow, and most can be harvested within 2-3 weeks. For chefs, they allow for interesting colors, flavors, and textures to be creatively combined to enhance any dish.
While this is not true Wasabi, it is a variety bred especially for microgreen production and has a sharp, peppery flavor. Its large cotyledons or seed leaves make it showy and flavorful. This is not Wasabia japonica.

CULTURE:
Grow in a greenhouse or protected area. Since many different species can be grown for micro greens, we suggest that you follow the germination instructions for the specific variety being grown. However, success can generally be had by following these instructions for Brassica family members: Grow in shallow trays or 20-row flats. Broadcast seed thickly on the media surface with seeds 1/4″- 1/2″ apart, and cover lightly with sowing mix, vermiculite, etc. Ideally, soil temperature should be 75°F (24°C) until germination, then reduced to 60°F (16°C). Maintain air temperature around 60°F (16°C). Bottom water or mist to prevent sowing mix from splashing on the seedlings. Maintain even moisture and do not allow sowing medium to dry out. If fertilizing, incorporate fertilizer into the sowing mix before sowing, or use a bottom watering system for liquid applications to avoid residue on the leaves.
