Popcorn flavoured microgreen that is just as healthy as it is tasty - the Corn Microgreen. The long green shoots will make your salads and sandwiches look lively and palatable with intense flavors. The nutritional profile of this variety of microgreen contains Vitamins A, B, C & E, Calcium, Magnesium, and antioxidants which improve bone health, prevent anemia, boosts the immune system and helps reduce hypertension.
Planting instructions
Take a flat shallow tray or a garden pot that is at least 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. For variegated green and golden yellow corn leaves, you can grow corn seeds in low to medium light.
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
Yellow Corn Microgreens like warm weather with temperature ranging between 25 to 30°C and they need 4-5 hours of good sunlight. A bright sunny spot near a window or a kitchen shelf is an ideal one. Be wary of the spot you choose for these microgreens since they respond strongly to any changes in the temperature.
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 12-14 days.
The shoots can grow up to 3 inches long but can be harvested early according to your requirement.
Take a sharp pair of scissors 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.

WHAT IS MICROGREEN ?
Hi,
Microgreens are young vegetable greens that are approximately 1–3 inches (2.5–7.5 cm) tall. This scientific term defines a juvenile or a nascent stage in the life of a fully grown plant. The basic difference in all the above-mentioned varieties is the duration and method of harvesting. The microgreen phase of a plant is when it starts forming its first set of leaves. Also known as 'vegetable confetti', the tiny, delicate, and very young microgreen leaves are used as an essential ingredient in salads and other foods as garnishing or as a taste enhancer. The tuft-like appearance of microgreens makes them an unusual visual and culinary delight. The flavorful and highly nutritious greens grow up to 2 inches tall within as little as 6 days.
Add these to salads, pizzas, sandwiches, soups, wraps, dips and other side dishes for a burst of color and unique flavor.
Best regards
