Microgreen Sunflower Seed
Microgreen Sunflower Seed
CERTIFIED ORGANIC! Microgreen sunflower seeds produce seedlings that contain about 25% protein. They are big and succulent like mung bean sprouts, but with large, prominent cotyledons (first leaves). They have a surprisingly sweet and mild taste reminiscent of carrots. Add some of these delicious black oil sunflower microgreens to a salad or sandwich, or serve as a refreshing and nutritious side dish. These microgreens are full of fibre, protein, vitamins, and minerals. Sunflower microgreens are easy and fast to grow. They make an excellent salad on their own, or just used as a garnish, sprinkled over a more conventional salad. You might not think of eating sunflower plants, but as microgreens they are tasty and nutritious.

Season & Zone
Microgreens can be grown at any time of the year as long as you can supply enough light.
Timing
Ready To Harvest in 8-12 days
Timing microgreens depends on the individual kinds of greens you will be growing. Cress grows really fast, and can be harvested a few days after sowing. Carrot seeds can take as long as 2 to 3 weeks to germinate, so you should expect to allow extra time.
