Microgreens may look delicate, but they’re grown using a careful and clean method that preserves flavour, freshness, and maximum nutrition. At MomesGreen, every batch is grown with intention — free from soil, pesticides, and artificial chemicals.
In this article, we take you behind the scenes to show how microgreens are grown from seed to harvest.
🌱 1. Choosing High-Quality Seeds
The journey begins with premium-quality microgreen seeds. Unlike regular gardening seeds, microgreen seeds are:
- Untreated
- Safe for edible growing
- High-germination quality
We select varieties based on flavour, nutrition, and recipe versatility — from sunflower and radish to amaranthus, methi, and mustard.
🌿 2. Growing Medium: Clean Cocopeat Instead of Soil
Unlike traditional plants, our microgreens are grown in cocopeat, a fibre extracted from coconut husk.
Why cocopeat?
✔ Clean and hygienic
✔ Soil-free, mess-free
✔ Retains moisture efficiently
✔ Prevents pests and fungal contamination
Your microgreens grow in the safest, cleanest medium available.
💧 3. Watering With Purified Water
Microgreens are extremely sensitive to water quality. That’s why we use:
- Filtered, purified water
- Controlled misting
- Measured hydration cycles
This ensures the greens grow fresh, crisp, and free from contamination.
☀️ 4. Perfect Light for Healthy Growth
Microgreens thrive under the right balance of:
- Natural sunlight
- Soft grow lights during cloudy days
- Consistent light cycles
The correct lighting enhances chlorophyll production, resulting in bright green, nutrient-rich leaves.
🧼 5. No Pesticides. No Chemicals. Ever.
Because microgreens grow quickly (7–12 days), they don’t require pesticides or chemical boosters.
We maintain:
- Clean indoor space
- Fresh airflow
- Protected growing environment
This ensures your greens are 100% clean and safe for kids, adults, and fitness lovers.
⏱️ 6. Harvesting at Peak Freshness
Microgreens are harvested only when an order is placed.
This guarantees:
- Maximum nutrition
- Superior taste
- Longer shelf life
- Higher freshness than store-bought greens
We hand-cut each batch carefully to avoid bruising and preserve quality.
📦 7. Packing With Care
Once harvested, microgreens are:
- Rinsed gently
- Dried using air circulation
- Packed in breathable containers
- Kept cool until delivery
This ensures they reach your home fresh and crisp.
🚚 8. Delivered Same-Day Across Bangalore
Because microgreens lose nutrients over time, delivery speed matters. We aim to deliver within hours of harvest, keeping your greens:
- Fresh
- Crunchy
- Nutrient-dense
- Ready to eat
This is the key difference between MomesGreen and mass-produced store greens.
