INTRODUCING ARUGULA MICROGREENS SEEDS

Arugula microgreens are the young, tender shoots of the arugula plant, harvested right after the first true leaves develop. Microgreens offer a more intense flavor than mature leaves, providing a dense nutrient profile. They’ve become a favorite with professional chefs and home cooks. Add a bold taste to dishes of every kind by growing arugula microgreens. It’s a simple way to incorporate organic greens into your diet at any time of the year, regardless of your gardening space or challenging climate conditions.

PLANTING ARUGULA MICROGREENS SEEDS

Spread arugula microgreens seeds evenly on a shallow tray, filled with moist seed-starting mix (or coconut coir). Firmly press the seeds into the soil. Mist the surface with water and cover to block out light. Keep well-watered by misting or bottom watering and keep the covered tray in a dark place for four to six days. After a few inches of growth or when the microgreens lift the cover, place the tray in an area with bright, indirect light.

MAINTAINING ARUGULA MICROGREENS

Arugula microgreens grow quickly and can be ready to harvest in about a week or two. Microgreens require regular misting to maintain moisture in the growing medium. Harvest arugula microgreens when they are 2 to 3 inches tall. Cut them just above the soil line. Enjoy them immediately after harvesting, for the best taste and highest nutrient content.

Growing arugula microgreens at home is a simple task. It provides a steady supply of fresh greens. Enjoy arugula microgreens benefits by growing your own at home. They’ll be at the peak of freshness, and you’ll be able to save a lot of money and avoid the expense of buying these tasty greens in the grocery store.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are heirloom seeds?

Heirloom seeds are the types of seeds your grandparents grew. These varieties have been passed down from generation to generation. They’re old reliable open-pollinated varieties that aren’t typically grown commercially. Instead, they have a rich history that predates modern breeding techniques. You can learn more about open-pollinated, heirloom, and non-GMO seeds in our Survival Garden Training blog.

How do I know my seeds are fresh?

Every seed packet includes a "packed for" date, and we germination test each seed lot before packaging to ensure you receive viable, high-quality seeds that are ready to grow.

Are your seeds chemically treated?

No, we do not pre-treat our seeds. All of our garden seeds are untreated, open-pollinated, non-GMO, and heirloom varieties. They are kept in temperature-controlled cooler storage until they are packed and shipped to keep them pest and disease-free.

Will your seeds grow in my USDA Hardiness zone?

The seeds in our collections are specifically chosen from varieties that can be successfully grown from Zone 3 to Zone 10 USDA Hardiness Zones. However, individual varieties have specific needs to thrive in different environments. Each seed pack has optimal temperatures for germination and instructions on seed starting. Consult local frost dates to plan your garden and get the most out of your seeds.

What is the shelf life of these garden seeds?

Most seeds remain viable for 3 to 5 years or longer when stored properly. Check your seed packet for specific varieties. For best results, keep your seeds in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture. Store them in an airtight container in a consistent temperature environment—a refrigerator or cool basement works well. Proper storage helps maintain germination rates and extends seed life well beyond the packed date.

Where are Survival Garden Seeds sourced?

The majority of our seeds are sourced in the United States, with a few exceptions when the seed is difficult to source domestically. Whenever we do have to source outside of the US, we ensure our seeds are safe to grow, non-GMO, heirloom varieties that meet our standards for germination and reliability.
