This is my first attempt at seeing how I can best grow Micro Greens. The first attempt will be grown in my Aerogarden, with tap water and organic plant nutrients. I have planted a variety of all of the seeds I received, and have even inserted some of them into the ‘soil’.

Im leaving the unused planter holes covered, as my research as taught me that with hydroponic setups like these, root rot and other (non plant related) growths can happen when the water is directly exposed to light.

This went fairly well overall, and I think that if I were to plant another batch of the Microgreens, I would be able to get maybe two growth cycles out of them before replacing the whole thing. They aren’t the type of plants that are best grown in this setting, so I will instead be using this planter to grow cilantro now.
