Germinating and Transplanting Microgreens

Part 2 of 4: A guide on growing microgreens in your Flex Micro

Materials Needed (Included in the Microgreen Starter Supply Box)

  • Spray Bottle (filled with water)

Germination & Transplanting

  • Check on your seeded microgreen trays daily and continue to spray with water at a minimum every 2 days or as necessary. Ensuring the seeds do not dry out. 
  • Once, 90%+ of the seeds have germinated (cracked from their shell) this is the time to transfer the tray into your Flex Micro tray slots. Depending on the variety, this will happen between day 2 and 10. 

During germination, microgreen seeds do not need light or added nutrients. The humidity dome creates a stable environment with increased humidity, helping prevent the seeds from drying out. Depending on the microgreen variety, seeds typically germinate between day 2 and 10. Each day, check if at least 90% of the seeds have cracked and begun to sprout. 

  • To transplant: Remove the humidity dome and place the microgreen tray in an open Flex Micro tray slot.

Your microgreen seeds are now ready to grow in your Flex Micro—well done! Continue to Part 3 of 4: Growing Microgreens in the Flex Micro for next steps.
