Microgreens – health and taste in miniature

In the last acricle, we talked about growing herbs and sprouts at home, and today we will focus on the increasingly popular microgreens. This is a solution that offers a delicious treasure trove of vitamins. These tiny plants are a true health bomb that you can grow in your own home – even on a windowsill! What are the benefits of microgreens? Why is it worth introducing them into your diet and home cultivation? That's what we will discuss in today's article.

What are microgreens?

Microgreens are young plants harvested at a very early growth stage, usually 7-14 days after germination.
Despite their small size, they contain even several times more nutrients than their mature counterparts.
The most common types of microgreens include arugula, sunflower, radish, basil, broccoli, pea, and red cabbage.
Due to their small size, microgreens are an ideal solution for people with limited growing space.
In modern homes with large windows, like those offered by our company, it's possible to create a mini garden even in the kitchen, living room, or on the balcony.
It's a perfect solution for those who desire healthy and fresh food within arm's reach.

Why is it worth growing microgreens?

Microgreens are a true vitamin bomb.
They contain high amounts of vitamins C, A, and E, as well as antioxidants that boost our immune system, improve the condition of our skin, hair, and nails, and provide protection for the heart.
Just a few grams of these tiny plants can offer as many nutrients as a whole bowl of vegetables.

Growing microgreens is simple and quick.
You just need seeds, some soil or coconut substrate, access to light, and water.
Even if you have no gardening experience, growing microgreens doesn’t require specialized knowledge—you can start right away!

Having your own microgreens is also a step towards ecology.
Instead of buying expensive organic vegetables or sprouts that are often transported over long distances and sprayed, you can enjoy your own plants directly from your windowsill.
Microgreens grow quickly, don’t take up much space, and their cultivation is much cheaper than regular shopping at stores.

These small plants add a unique aroma and freshness to every dish.
You can add them to salads, sandwiches, soups, smoothies, or even use them to decorate plates.
Their distinctive flavors, ranging from the mild taste of broccoli to the spicy kick of radish, make them an ideal addition to both everyday and gourmet meals.
