Amaranth microgreens have a nutty, rich flavour and are 15% protein. They are rich in vitamins A, B, C, and E, calcium, iron, magnesium, niacin, phosphorus, potassium, and amino acids and make a brilliant eye-catching garnish or topping to just about any dish. When harvesting, take extra care to harvest slightly above the soil with an extremely sharp knife or a scissor.

Growing guide for Amaranthus Red Microgreen Seeds

Planting instructions

Take a flat shallow tray or a garden pot that is atleast 4-5 inches deep.

Fill it with clean potting/garden soil mixed with some manure or vermicompost.

Spread the seeds evenly and densely on the soil surface and cover them with a thin layer of soil (or sand).

Allow the seeds to germinate for 3-4 days, keeping them in shade.

Expose your seedlings to sunlight and air as and when most of them start to sprout from the soil surface.

Find a balcony or a kitchen spot that receives good sun and air.

Growing Requirements

soil

You can use fresh garden soil, cleaned of any impurities or pebbles. Microgreens also grow well in hydroponics. Mix the soil with 30% manure or vermicompost for better results.

spot

Microgreens need 4-5 hours of good sunlight. A bright sunny spot near a window or a kitchen shelf is an ideal one.

watering

Water this plant regularly without letting the soil dry out completely. Water should not splash on the tiny seeds directly. The soil is to be kept moist from the sides using a water spray or a can. Prefer watering your microgreens twice a day; once in the morning and once in the evening, depending on the room temperature.

how to harvest

Microgreens are easy to grow and the harvest gets ready in around 7-12 days.

The shoots can grow upto 3 inches long, but can be harvested early according to your requirement.

Take a sharp scissor or knife and cut the shoots just above the soil surface carefully, without affecting the roots.

Make sure to not harvest your crop immediately after watering the plant. Keep the medium dry 4-5 hours before the harvest.

Rinse the cut shoots with warm water and consume immediately for maximum benefits.

They can be stored in the refrigerator in an air tight container; keeping in mind that they lose their nutritional value with time.

Decompose the used soil and collect fresh soil when you plan to grow the next batch of your microgreens.

Very unhappy with these seeds

I am an avid home microgreens grower, but I have yet to manage to get a single harvest from these seeds. I have tried soil method with the seeds sprinkled thickly on the soil, I have tried with the seeds sprinkled sparsely on the soil, have tried with the seeds sown in the soil, have tried the tissue on top of soil method, not a single method has given me even one amaranth microgreen to eat. This has been my most disappointing purchase honestly. Since the other microgreens seeds purchased from here have been very fruitful. The issue is that the seeds 50% do germinate, but they are so weak looking & even though I water extremely gently & keep covered from any wind, they still tend too remain weak almost like fur, & eventually fall over & rot. A big thumbs down on this variety from me.
