MICROGREEN CARE

Placement: Leave the box of microgreens on your countertop, ensuring it's not in direct sunlight or under a ceiling fan. These conditions can quickly dry out the microgreens.

1. Check Moisture: Every 2 days, check the grow pad to see if it's still moist. If it's dry, spray the pad to keep it moist. This will help keep the microgreens hydrated and fresh.

By following these steps, you can ensure your microgreens stay fresh and vibrant on the countertop.

Placement: Put the box of microgreens in your refrigerator. Ensure it’s not directly in the path of the cold air coming out of the blower to prevent freezing.

1. Check Moisture: Every 3-4 days, inspect the grow pad to see if it's still moist. If it's dry, follow the watering steps outlined in method (1) above.
2. Condensation: It's normal to see condensation on the leaves when stored in the refrigerator. However, if there's excessive water on the leaves, consider placing them on your countertop instead. Too much moisture can cause premature spoilage.

By following these steps, you can maintain the freshness of your microgreens for longer periods.

That's a great tip for keeping microgreens fresh longer! Proper storage can indeed make a big difference in extending their shelf life. It's amazing how something as simple as leaving them out for a bit can help prevent premature decay. Plus, having them readily available in the fridge makes it convenient to add them to meals whenever you want.

Store your cut microgreens in airtight containers or resealable plastic bags with a dried paper towel. Make sure to remove any excess moisture using paper towels before sealing the container or bag. Excess moisture can lead to mold growth.

Check your microgreens regularly for any signs of wilting, mold, or decay. Remove any damaged or spoiled greens immediately to prevent them from affecting the rest.
