Harvest: 5 - 14 days

The time it takes to grow a finished 5 - 14 days, or other crop (Micro-Greens, Grass, Greens) from a dry Seed. Note: This "finished" Sprout is our preference. you may grow them for as long as you want! In fact, we suggest that you taste them at every rinse to discover when you like them best.

How to Grow Bruno's Indoor Garden

Plant 1-2 teaspoons of seed (for a 5x5 inch Tray) on thoroughly moistened medium.
Cover your crop with another tray, or a plate - to keep light out and moisture in.
Keep your medium moist by watering lightly as needed. Don't drench!
Use Coconut Coir and you likely won't have to water at all after planting!
When your plants have begun to show leaves, remove cover and move your crop to a well lit location.
Harvest when the leaves are open and an inch or three tall (day 5-14).
Cut just above the medium, with a scissors or sharp knife.

Yields approximately as many Micro-Greens (by weight) as seed "planted" We put quotes around Planted because the seeds are always spread atop a medium - not planted under.

There are plenty of mucilaginous seeds in this mix. Do NOT Soak it - it is hard to work with the mix when soaked, and as you'll see in our Notes section below, there is little profit in it.

Planting

(see Notes (below) for variations)

Grow these on soil or Baby Blanket (a soilless medium) in a Tray, on a Hemp Bag, in our Compostable Tray (which holds Baby Blanket very nicely) or on virtually any moisture retaining medium (theoretically as minimal as paper towel or fabric - like cheesecloth) you can think of.

Thoroughly moisten the Medium upon which you are going to grow. Whether you are using a Hemp Bag, Baby Blanket, or another medium - lay it on a plate or in a pan or something - so that you don't end up watering your counter. If you are using a Tray with drainage slits to hold your medium, put it on a plate or in a solid (Drip) Tray - or use a plate or pan to capture the water runoff.

Spread seeds sparsely on your thoroughly moistened medium. There should be a bit of space around each seed but you are not expected to place them one at a time - just spread them out as much as you can and as evenly as you can, within reason.

You may cover your seeds: If planting on soil or another medium in a Tray use another identical tray - up side down. If using a Compostable Tray you can cover the tray for the first 2-3 days. If using a Hemp Bag, Baby Blanket, or another medium - be creative. If it's on a plate then use an identical plate (upside down) as a cover. It is not mandatory when growing Micro-Greens to cover them at all. Experiment for yourself and see what works best in your climate/location.

Place your Micro-Garden in a low-light, room temperature location (70° is optimal).

Keep the medium moist - but not soggy - by watering or misting with a Spray Bottle every day.

When your plants grow up and begin to shed their hulls they are ready for light so move them (if necessary) to a well lighted location. If you go with sunlight be prepared to water more frequently. Room light will usually do quite nicely - and will not dry out your medium as quickly.

Keep the medium moist but not soggy by watering regularly. Water from the side if possible to prevent injuring the tiny plants - especially if you are not using a Spray Bottle.

When your plants have open leaves which are green, they are done.

Harvest

Cut the plants just above the medium upon which they have grown. During the final 8-12 hours minimize the surface moisture of your plants - they will store best in your refrigerator if they are dry to the touch. So if you water try to keep the water off the plants - just water the medium.

When you are ready to store them (I'll remind you that these degrade fast, so eat them instead of storing them if you can), if they are still damp - lay them between some paper towels or anything you prefer, and dry them very gently. Transfer your crop to a plastic bag or the sealed container of your choice - glass is good. We sell an amazing Produce Storage Bag that actually extends the shelf life of produce, if you're interested in the best of the best =;-) Whatever you store them in; put them in your refrigerator - if you must.

* Dry Seed Volume

See our Notes (below) for Variations.

If using Sproutpeople's Single Harvest Pack and a 5x5 inch Tray; use the whole bag.

2 Teaspoons for our little 5 inch tray. 2 scant Tablespoons for an 10 inch square tray. 4 Tablespoon for an 10 x 20 inch tray.

The first time you grow these you should consider giving quite a bit of space to each seed just to familiarize yourself with the plants' habit. Our suggested Dry Seed Volume will provide you with this space.

A most exceptional mix! Bruno's Indoor Garden! We worked longer on this - and there are more seed varieties together here - than any other mix we've ever come up with. If you grow this just to the Cotyledon stage, the plants will be fairly uniform in height (no easy feat for us seed mixers), but what we really want is for you to try growing to the True Leaf stage (see our Notes section (below) for details. When grown this long the plants are less uniform, but the mix tastes even better and looks absolutely astonishing!

This one can be grown on soil or a similar medium, a thoroughly moistened Hemp Bag or on Hemp Felt in our handsome Compostable Tray. But, we recommend soil - if you're going for a True Leaf. Read the Notes section right this minute - you'll know all there is to know.

For you zealots, Bruno was our miracle goldfish. Bruno was a feeder fish our kids won at a carnival - - well - - actually he was the replacement. The fish they won died while we were still there, so we asked for a new fish. We got home, cleaned out our fish bowl and set Bruno up. He prospered, so we increased his space from one gallon to two - and a year later to 5 gallons. We added a friend for him, as well as fine rocks and lovely plants. Bruno was one of a kind. He would swim up to the top when someone came by the tank, seeking either food (when he spoke), or petting (if he stayed just blow the surface). Bruno was more like a dog than a fish. He outlived 3 tank mates, and enjoyed his 3 1/2 years in our family. It's not easy for a goldfish to carve out a place in a family of humans, dogs and cats - but Bruno did. We all loved him very much. He was a fish worthy of such an honor - being immortalized with a seed mix. He truly was.

Note: Canadian and US researchers have found that Brassicas contain antioxidants such as sulfurophane. Many of the seeds in Bruno's Indoor Garden are Brassica.

Very tasty!

First Timer, learning from the best☺️

6 days into a tray of Peas... Doing great 👍

Thanks,

Love this mix

This is such a great mix. I also grow French Garden and use them both for the base of my salads. Really great flavor blend. It grows really well. I grow in stainless steel sprouter in coconut coir, I have 3-4 stainless containers growing at various stages and just harvest daily what I am eating and keep the rest growing, so I have a constant supply.

Love this mix

Super Woman!

I feel like Superwoman when I use this as the base of a big salad for myself and my family! I grow them as microgreens, and feel like we are getting the ultimate nutrition and immunity boost when eating these (which is often). We haven't been sick in years (and no jabs), even with the family working in healthcare and/or college students! I use almost all of your greens, but this is the favorite!
