Microgreens, sprouting seeds - Cress 30g

Product detailed description

A discreet little plant that can do a great deal. That is how cress could be described. Its anti-inflammatory effects help with bladder, kidney and respiratory problems, and thanks to its high content of vitamins and minerals it also helps strengthen the immune system. Cress is a rich source of vitamins C, A, B1, B3, K and E. Among the minerals contained, calcium, sodium and iron are worth mentioning.

In addition, cress can stimulate the activity of the gallbladder and liver and also helps proper digestion. It is therefore ideal as a supplement to fattier and harder-to-digest dishes.

For convenient microgreens germination, use Mungo - germination tray

The germination process in jars and trays does not differ much in this case.

Cress seeds do not need to be soaked in advance, which makes the work easier and speeds up the whole process. Keep the jar or tray with the seeds at a temperature of around 20 °C and do not expose it to direct sunlight. Do not forget to rinse the seeds with water at least twice a day (tiered germination trays are designed so that it is always enough to pour water only into the top tier), and during the day you can mist them a few times. In summer, the seeds will need more water than in winter, but you will certainly notice that yourself.

Within 4–6 days you will have cress sprouts ready for consumption. Then all you need to do is rinse them with water and add them to a salad, sandwich or any other dish.

If you do not process the sprouts immediately, you can store them in the fridge for a few more days.

You can also grow cress in a form other than sprouts and microgreens. Simply plant it in the usual way. Growing cress in a pot is just as easy as germinating it. You only need to make sure that the substrate never dries out and at the same time is not saturated with a large amount of water. Regular misting should therefore be a matter of course, thanks to which the seeds will germinate and grow quickly.
