Survival Garden Seeds has microgreen sunflower seeds, perfect for anyone who wants to grow these nutrient-dense greens at home. Our heirloom seeds are selected for their rapid growth rate, ensuring a fast and enriching harvest.
Sunflower microgreens, the young sprouts of the sunflower plant, are grown for their health benefits, easy cultivation, and nutty flavor. With high levels of protein, essential amino acids, and antioxidants, these small plants pack a big punch nutritionally. Growing sunflower microgreens is a simple process. Because of these facts, they’ve become popular recently and are grown by novice and experienced gardeners who wish to enhance their diet with fresh, healthful greens.
Soak your sunflower microgreen seeds in water for 8-12 hours to prepare them for planting. Fill a shallow tray with seed starting mix or a soilless growing medium like coconut coir. Sprinkle the seeds evenly on top, mist, and cover to retain moisture and block out the light. Keep the growing medium moist and covered in darkness for 3-5 days. After removing from darkness, expose the microgreens to direct sunlight. Harvest within 8-14 days.
Sunflower microgreens grow quickly and in a week or two, they will be ready to harvest. Provide consistent moisture throughout the growing process. A grow light or a sunny spot provides the necessary light for healthy development. Harvest sunflower microgreens when they are 2 to 4 inches in height by cutting them just above the soil line. Clean gently and use immediately for the best flavor and nutrients.
The easy process of growing sunflower microgreens at home is perfect for those with no garden space and for those who can’t wait for the growing season to begin. It’s a rewarding way to boost your nutrition. Their quick growth cycle and impressive nutrient profile make sunflower microgreens a fun, welcome addition to any home garden or kitchen.
