Growing Guide & Expert Tips

Step-by-Step Growing Instructions

1. Preparation: No soaking needed! Mustard seeds are ready to plant directly
2. Planting: Spread seeds densely and evenly on 1-2 inches of moist potting soil or coconut coir
3. Coverage: Lightly press seeds into soil or leave uncovered (they germinate in light)
4. Blackout period: Optional – cover tray for 1-2 days to encourage germination, or grow in light from day one
5. Light exposure: Place in bright indirect sunlight or under grow lights (12-16 hours daily) immediately or after 1-2 days
6. Watering: Mist 2-3 times daily to keep soil consistently moist but not waterlogged
7. Harvesting: Cut above soil line when microgreens reach 2-3 inches with first true leaves (5-7 days)

Optimal Growing Conditions

• Temperature: 18-24°C (65-75°F)
• Humidity: 40-60%
• Light: Bright indirect sunlight or LED grow lights (12-16 hours)
• Seed density: 2 tablespoons per 10x20 inch tray (dense planting for best yield)
• Yield: 100g seeds produce approximately 800g-1kg fresh microgreens
• pH level: 6.0-6.5 (slightly acidic)
• Germination time: 1-2 days (fastest!)

Common Issues & Solutions

• Leggy, pale stems: Increase light intensity immediately after germination
• Too spicy/pungent: Harvest earlier (day 5), ensure adequate watering, avoid heat stress
• Mold growth: Improve air circulation, reduce humidity, avoid overwatering
• Uneven germination: Ensure even seed distribution and consistent moisture
• Wilting: Check soil moisture, avoid letting soil dry out completely
• Slow growth: Increase temperature (mustard prefers warmth), ensure adequate light

Pro Tips for Maximum Yield

• Mustard microgreens can handle denser planting than other varieties
• Use bottom watering after germination to prevent leaf mold
• Harvest in the morning for best flavor and crispness
• Succession planting: start new trays every 2-3 days for continuous harvest
• For milder flavor, harvest at day 5; for maximum spice, harvest at day 7
• Mustard microgreens tolerate slightly warmer temperatures than other varieties
• No blackout period needed – they grow well in light from day one
