Microgreens require choosing the right seeds, containers, and soil. Seeds should be organic and intended for microgreens. Containers should be lightweight, shallow, and have drainage holes. A seed-starting mix makes a good soil. The process involves sowing seeds, germinating them covered for 48 hours, then allowing them to photosynthesize with light and watering daily until the first true leaves form, at which point they are harvested by cutting at the stems.
