Hey! My friends, I hope you are well and are in the holiday mood. I want to help you grow microgreens so that you enjoy fresh vegetables straight from your garden. Here, I will teach you how to grow cilantro/coriander microgreens.
So let’s go!
We are using the soil method. You need:
Three trays
Water
Spray bottle
Put some soil in a perforated tray, and make sure you leave about 2cm above the soil so that you will be able to water your seeds.
Sprinkle some coriander seeds on top of the soil, ensuring that you create an even blanket but that no seeds sit on top of other seeds.
Cover your seeds with a thin layer of fertile soil.
Mist spray up until the soil is moist.
Take one of the unperforated trays and let it sit on top of the tray with the seed
take the trays and allow them to sit in the bottom tray. This is done so that water does not spill over.
Take your trays and put in a dark room to allow germination.
Note: keep checking your moisture content up until most of the seeds have germinated
I have recorded and posted videos for this process on YouTube so you can follow the steps on the video to make sure you sow your seeds correctly.
So I will write about what we will do after germination.
Here is the link to the video for the tutorial:
