Have you ever
wondered how to enjoy fresh and better-tasting food without being forced to
spend a lot of time and money? I assume the answer is yes and therefore have an
exciting suggestion for you. It’s called growing
baby greens. I found out that baby greens are grown quickly from quality
seeds, which makes harvesting easy as a piece of cake.
Grow Baby Greens and Ensure the Freshness of Your Food
Growing Time
But let’s start from the beginning,
all right? When I deal with larger seeds such as peas and beans I usually pre-soak them overnight
in order to speed up the germination process. I don’t soak smaller seeds like radish and spinach seeds.
If you’re using a container for
growing indoors then I advise you to fill it about 3/4 full of quality growing media. In case you’re growing baby greens
outdoors, prepare thesoil thoroughly (see my blog page for this step). After doing so I generously
sprinkle the seeds over the media and gently press them in.
Harvesting Time
It’s time for your efforts to pay
off. So after watering your baby greens and adding some nutrient solution to boost flavor
and nutrition, you are
ready to start harvesting.
I wait until my seedlings are 3-9cm
tall, but it all depends on the variety you choose to grow! Finally, get your
scissors and cut the stems right above the soil. Do I now hear a word salad?
