Microgreens and micro herbs are the seedling versions of leafy greens, vegetables, and herbs. They are a few days older than "sprouts". Microgreens are considered a superfood and are a great source of nutrition. They only take a week to grow so you can plant and harvest every week with Hamama's microgreen kits.

Microgreens or micro herbs are the most common names for the seedling versions of leafy greens, vegetables, and herbs. Those are the most common names, but sometimes they are called mini greens, micro vegetables, or even micro leaves and micro plants. Microgreens are younger than baby greens so the name refers to the even smaller leaves that are grown by day 7-10 on the seedling.  

The best thing about growing Hamama microgreens indoors is that you don't have to worry about bad weather or pests. Even if you live somewhere with hot summers or cold winters, you can still have fresh microgreens whenever you want.  

There are several microgreens typically considered the most popular. We offer a lot of them, so check out the variety of flavors above! Some other popular microgreens we’re working on include arugula microgreens and sunflower microgreens! In the meantime, check out the great array of widely loved Seed Quilt flavors including Super Salad Mix, Spicy Daikon Radish, and more.

Technically, the Hamama kit is hydroponic. This just means that it only needs water for growing microgreens. Our kit replaces the soil with natural coconut fiber to give the roots something to grow into. They taste delicious, are also good for you, and you don't have to clean any dirt off before eating.
