Microgreen omelette is one of the most delicious dishes you can eat. I don’t know why it’s my favorite but once I started growing my own, I’ll be telling everyone about it. It’s pretty much similar to a microgreens except you use a much larger variety of food. If you’ve never grown microgreens or thought about planting them, then this article will show you the easiest way to do it. If you’re not a fan of growing your own vegetables, then don’t worry. I’ll show you how to enjoy the flavor of microgreen even if you don’t have a garden.
For people that are interested in trying to grow microgreens, it’s pretty simple. It’s actually pretty easy to grow wheatgrass microgreens as long as you follow the instructions in this article. The only things required for you to be able to grow these flavorful treats are some soil, an elevated temperature, and some sunlight.
If you’re not familiar with microgreens, they come from fenugreek seeds. They can be used in many different recipes because they add a unique flavor. I usually pair mine with mustard or yogurt, but feel free to experiment. The growing tips I use in this article are specifically for fenugreek seeds.
When you’re ready to begin growing microgreen, you should prepare the soil properly. Since it’s grown in the soil for a few weeks already, there isn’t much room for other organic matter to be planted. Try growing mustard seeds instead of wheatgrass seeds to get started. It might be a good idea to plant some more mustard seeds than you think, because they can be sown at almost any time.
You’ll need to make sure that you’re planting at the right time of year. Mint is one of the more difficult plants to grow, especially if you’re growing it indoors. Mint tends to grow at the bottom of the plant’s leaves and will reach the top in two to three years. Growing fenugreek microgreen can take just as long, but your chances of success increase dramatically if you start growing it in the spring. It tends to grow on the leaves just before it turns color.
When you’re ready to begin growing fenugreek microgreen omelette, you’ll need to have a raised bed or tarp ready. This will help keep your seedlings healthy and protected. The bed needs to have an even, flat surface, because it’s important for seedlings to have even temperatures. The soil mix that you use should be very fine, but not loose. It should also be made from well-drained, sand-filled compost that has been turned at high speeds.
You should keep your seedlings separate from other plants in your garden. They can easily take over the nutrients and water that other plants get. If you have other plants in the garden that do not need the same amounts of water and sunlight, try growing them separately. If you’re growing fenugreek microgreens in a raised bed, however, you need to grow separate lines of mustard seeds.
After you’ve planted your seedlings into the bed of coir, you need to mulch them. Most people choose one of two mulches: straw or coconut coir. Straw is the least desirable because of the smell that it has. Microgreen mustard seeds will need an extra dose of fertilizer every six weeks. If you live in a dry, hot climate where the required amount of water is scarce, you might consider using drip film mulches instead.
Feed your plants only once a month and avoid giving them fertilizer during dry periods. You should keep a steady supply of nutrients coming from your compost. The microgreen fenugreek seeds should be planted about one inch deep and then packed down with the top soil. You can expect the seeds to germinate in approximately twelve to sixteen days but you need to water them well after they germinate to prevent them from drying out.
Microgreen omelette planting will produce an abundance of greens in a short period of time. You should be able to harvest the plants every two weeks. When harvesting, make sure you dig up all of the mature foliage on the plant. This will ensure that the plant has enough moisture to continue growing. It is important that you don’t over-water the plant because it can cause wilting. If you leave it in standing water, you can expect for it to die within a few weeks.
To harvest your microgreen omelette, you should remove the seed pod using a fork. This will help the seeds stay dry. If you don’t have a fork, you can use a spade to dig the holes. When removing the seeds from the plant, it is wise to wear latex gloves so as not to get any of the fenugreek seeds splattered on your clothing. The process will take about three days to complete.
