Sunflower Microgreens: Big Seeds, Big Flavor, Big Sales
If you want a crop that sells itself, sunflower microgreens are a great choice. They’re nutty, crunchy, and ready in about 10 days. Here’s how to grow them: 1. Soak seeds for 12 hours in cool water. 2. Sow them thickly in a shallow tray with drainage holes. 3. Cover for 3 days to germinate, then uncover and give them light. 4. Water from the top at first, then switch to bottom watering to keep them clean. Customers love them on sandwiches, in salads, or just as a snack. Their size makes them eye-catching at markets and easy to handle when packaging. Have you tried growing sunflowers yet? How did your first tray turn out?
How to Store Microgreens for Maximum Shelf Life
Keeping your microgreens fresh starts with how you handle them right after harvest. 1. Harvest clean, dry microgreens. Do not rinse before storage. 2. Store in airtight containers only, never breathable containers. 3. Keep them cold in the fridge, ideally between 35°F and 38°F. 4. Label your containers so you know exactly when they were packed. Done right, you can get a solid 10to 14 days of freshness, which keeps customers coming back for more. What is your go-to storage container for your microgreens?

My First Microgreens Crop Was… Mold.
When I was just getting started, I dove in with excitement and planted a mix of fast-growers: radish, kale, and mustard. I had read you needed to keep the seeds “dark and humid” for the first few days. So, naturally, I put my trays in my cold, damp basement. I figured I was doing everything right. After four days, there were no sprouts. Just… nothing. I started to panic — bad seeds? Wrong method? Then I saw it. Growth! But not microgreens… it was molding a thick, fluffy blanket across every tray. Turns out my basement was too cold, too wet, and I had overwatered. The perfect storm for spores, not sprouts. Needless to say, I tossed the whole “crop,” learned a ton, and now grow in a clean, controlled space. No more moldy experiments in the dungeon. 👉 What about you?
