Lepidium sativum
An easy microgreen to grow.
Cress has a deliciously mild, slightly peppery flavour and is great for salads, soups and garnishes. Cress microgreens are nutrient dense and can also be added to smoothies and juices for that extra health boost.
Cress seeds are mucilaginous, so they do not require soaking or a lot of water. If you water the microgreens too much, you may have a low germination rate or mould issues. For best results, use the Livingseeds Microgreen Clear Dome with the Livingseeds Microgreen Trays, to keep the humidity up so that the seeds don't dry out, while still allowing light for taller microgreens.
Can be harvested in 8-12 days
