How to us Microgreens
Microgreens are baby vegetables which are harvested typically 7 to 20 days after germination, when they only measure a few centimeters high. Thus, the microgreens are harvested at an earlier stage compared to their mature counterparts. This makes them up to 40x more nutritious. The 3 components of a microgreen: the central stem, the cotyledon leaves, and the young true leaves. At this stage the flavor is more intense and enhanced, while maintain a delicate texture.
There are many ways to incorporate microgreens into your meals to add flavor, texture, and nutrition. One simple way to use microgreens is as a garnish. For example, you can top a soup or grain bowl with a handful of microgreens for a pop of color and flavor. You can also add microgreens to sandwiches, wraps, and burgers for a fresh and crunchy element.
Another way to use microgreens is to incorporate them into salads. They make a great addition to mixed greens, adding a burst of flavor and nutrition. You can also mix microgreens with other vegetables, grains, and proteins to create a more complete and satisfying meal. Microgreens can also be blended into smoothies or juiced for a nutrient-rich boost. Experiment with different types of microgreens to find your favorite flavors and pairings. Remember to add microgreens just before serving to preserve their freshness and flavor

What are main the differences between
microgreens and the full grown vegetables?
As we have all been taught when we were little, we should eat our greens. Most of the nutrients, needed for the well-being of our body are found in fruits and vegetables: such as vitamins, carotenoids, antioxidants, fiber, and minerals.
Don’t be fooled by their small size! Microgreens are highly intense in flavor and in nutrients. In fact, it was discovered in a recent study published...
Eating microgreens can help you LIVE HEALTHY, LIVE STRONGER, LIVE LONGER
YES! Microgreens have more nutrients compared to their mature counterparts! The researchers concluded that most of the microgreen species tested were excellent providers of vitamins and carotenoids, much more even than their mature counterparts. High variations exist between the species, so it’s almost as if each microgreen has its own specialty: in taste but also in nutrients! For example, red cabbage is extremely high in vitamin C and green daikon has an incredible number of antioxidants. In any case, just a few grams of microgreens can already...
Sustainable and environmentally conscious vertical
farming technology.
Microgreens are a sustainable and environmentally conscious form of vertical farming technology. Vertical farming refers to the practice of growing plants in stacked layers, typically in a controlled indoor environment. This type of farming allows for year-round production using minimal space, water, and other resources.
One of the main benefits of microgreens and vertical farming is the ability to grow food locally, reducing the need for transportation and the associated carbon emissions. Vertical farming also uses less water than traditional farming methods, as the water is recycled and reused within the system. In addition, the controlled indoor environment of vertical farming reduces the need for pesticides, making the resulting produce safer and more sustainable. Overall, microgreens and vertical farming offer a more efficient and environmentally conscious way of producing fresh, nutrient-rich produce.
We want to leverage our strength in technology to deepen our
digital inclusion efforts in agriculture.

Not only are microgreens pretty garnishes, but they also provide tons of health benefits. Among these benefits are up to 40 times more nutritional content than their adult counterparts. Like vitamins, minerals, enzymes, antioxidants, and unique medicinal compounds.
Vitamin K1 is higher in amaranth, basil, and red cabbage microgreens than in their fully grown equivalents. Vitamin C concentration is 6 times higher in red cabbage microgreens than in adult red cabbage. In addition, lettuce microgreens showed higher concentrations of elements Calcium, Magnesium, Iron, Manganese, Zinc, Selenium, and Molybdenum than their adult counterparts.
Microgreens from cruciferous vegetables like Brussels sprouts and broccoli also have a unique compound called sulforaphane. Sulforaphane is a biologically active compound found in plants that can help manage viral load and glucose levels, protect your skin, improve brain function, and fight inflammation. It has also been shown to cause tumor cell death.
Sulforaphane is a potent and bioavailable activator of Nrf2. Nrf2s are important because they make antioxidants, which help the body fight inflammation and cell damage. Activating the Nrf2 pathway can help reduce systemic inflammation or inflammation all over the body.
Do not be fooled by their tiny size! Microgreens are highly intense in flavor & nutrients. In fact, it was discovered in a recent study published by the Journal of agriculture and food chemistry that the concentration of nutrients inside microgreen leaves is highly superior to the concentration you can find in adult plant leaves. 25 distinct species of microgreens were analyzed in this research, and it was proven that in some cases you can find from 4X up to 40X times more vitamins & minerals in the microgreens.
Microgreens provide tons of health benefits. Among these benefits are up to 40X times more nutritional content than their adult counterparts. They are loaded with vitamins, minerals, enzymes, antioxidants, and unique medicinal compounds. Vitamin K1 is higher in amaranth, basil, and red cabbage microgreens than in their fully grown equivalents. Vitamin C concentration is 6X times higher in red cabbage microgreens than in adult red cabbage. In addition, leafy green microgreens showed higher concentrations of elements Calcium, Magnesium, Iron, Manganese, Zinc, Selenium, and Molybdenum than their adult counterparts. Microgreens from cruciferous vegetables like brussels sprouts and broccoli also have a unique compound that can help manage viral load and glucose levels, protect your skin, improve brain function, and fight inflammation. It has also been shown to cause death in tumor cells. Microgreens are a phenomenal source of antioxidants, which help the body fight inflammation and cell damage. Microgreens can help reduce inflammation all over the body.
Microgreens clearly have more nutrients compared to their mature counterparts! The researchers concluded that most of the microgreen species tested were excellent providers of vitamins and carotenoids, much more even than their mature counterparts. High variations exist between the species, so it’s almost as if each microgreen has its own specialty: in taste but also in nutrients! For example, red cabbage is extremely high in vitamin C and green daikon has an incredible number of antioxidants. In any case, just a few grams of microgreens can already be enough to get your daily amount of nutrients.
Another one of their superpowers is their wealth in minerals, mainly calcium (for cell physiology, bone, and tooth growth) and potassium (crucial for neurons and muscles). These concentrations are highly linked to the nutrient solution that is used for the growing microgreens. Having such an impact on the concentrations can be quite useful for people suffering from certain diseases such as impaired kidney function and cardiovascular disease.
