Organic Radish Daikon – Microgreen/Sprouting

Organic Radish Daikon – Growing Instructions

Grow as a microgreen

1. Sow your seeds directly onto a moistened growing medium (3-5cm deep) and lightly mist the seeds with water.
2. Place the seeded tray into a second tray without drainage holes. This will allow you to bottom water the tray.
3. Cover with another tray on top to stop light getting in. Then place a weight inside to encourage the roots to grow down and to help the seeds make good contact with the growing medium.
4. After day 2-4, remove the cover and place in a well-lit location.
5. When watering the seedlings, keep using the bottom tray.
6. Harvest between 8-12 days or when the seedlings are 3-6cm tall. Cut the stems above the soil line with a knife or scissors.

4. Drain all of the water until the seeds are damp.
