Frequently asked questions
Sprouts are the first stage of growth where the root (radicle) and the shoot first appear. Usually grown in water and consumed whole. Microgreens, are grown in a medium, such as soil or coir mats, and the first two leaves, the cotyledons are allowed to form. The plants are harvested from just above the soil level leaving the remains of the seed and roots behind.
The majority of microgreens are grown and harvested according to a very specific schedule. Unless they are harvested at the right time the charateristics can change quite dramatically. Late harvesting often spoils the flavour, looks and texture. Consequently, there is little value in shipping live products but we would be happy to oblige if preferred.
