Rocket microgreens seed pads

Rocket microgreens seed pads

The organically certified seed pads are produced exclusively for the Heimgart gardening system. They consist of a natural fiber pad and organic seed which is fixed and positioned with a natural binding agent. If seeds come loose when the pad is unpacked, this isn’t a problem: simply spread them on the seed pad before covering with the cultivation covers.

With the Heimgart Starter Kit and the seed pads for rocket microgreens, it only takes a few minutes to get the microgreens growing. Two seed pads are intended for use with the starter kit. Once the two seed pads have been placed in the porcelain bowl and watered, the first young leaves sprout after just a few days, providing variety and a healthy spiciness on the plate.

This is how easy it is to grow the microgreens:
Fill the porcelain bowl with water up to the mark. Place two seed pads on the stainless steel insert and place it in the porcelain bowl. Now cover the seed pads with the two included cardboard cultivation covers. These protects the seeds from light and creates an optimal microclimate ideal to support the seedlings growth. Now it is time to relax. Leave the microgreens covered at room temperature for at least 3 days and let them germinate in peace. As soon as the covers are pushed off by the microgreens, usually after 3 – 4 days, you can remove them completely, so that the plants get sunlight and start to turn green. After 5 – 7 days you can harvest and enjoy your microgreens.

All components of the seed pads are free of preservatives, compostable and are produced in cooperation with non-profit workshops.
