1. Are microgreens as nutritious as everyone says

    Microgreens are an emerging superfood, poised to disrupt how we eat vegetables. We call them a megafood as they contain up to 40 times more nutrients compared to their mature counterparts.

  2. Can anyone grow microgreens at home

    Yes you can, however you might want to consider the following. They require efficient light ( a minimum of 3000 lumens ), proper constant air flow to avoid mold build up, the right temperature, humidity levels need to be controlled and they require regular watering. You over water them and it can cause mold, you under water them and they can quickly die. You have to also make sure your medium isn’t over-rich in nutrients, as this will burn the young plants. Some microgreens take up to 10 days, some even longer to reach peak harvest length. During that time you need to be there for them.

  3. Can I eat microgreens everyday

    So, you should be aware that some vitamins and minerals have a maximum daily dose to prevent bad effects like nausea and diarrhea. However, you would have to eat 20-plus pounds of microgreens a day for a week to reach levels that could cause you any potential life-threatening harm.

  4. What do microgreen powders taste like

    Microgreens are very flavorsome and our powders have a range of flavor profiles. As an example, while peas and broccoli are more neutral, radishes and mustard are quite spicy. 

  5. How long do the microgreen powders last

    We recommend using your micro powders within 3 months after purchase. Our range consists of fortnightly and monthly supply.

  6. Are these powders all natural

    Yes they are 100% natural. We grow, harvest and process our microgreens in a food safe facility in New Zealand and all our powders are quality checked before dispatch.

  7. How long before I notice positive health changes

    Every person is different, but we have experienced that with consistent use you will notice positives changes within the first 2 weeks. 

  8. Are there any side effects to microgreen consumption

    Microgreens are undoubtedly a powerhouse of nutrition, but like any other food, they also have a potential side effect. It is important to be aware of this to ensure that you can enjoy microgreens without any adverse reaction. People with allergies to certain plant families should exercise caution when consuming microgreens from those families.
