Why Grow Mizuna Microgreens?

Mizuna microgreens are young, tender leaves that surpass the nutritional value of mature plants. They contain antioxidants that help the body combat free radicals, thereby slowing down the ageing process. Regular consumption of mizuna microgreens supports immunity, improves blood clotting, and exhibits anti-cancer properties. Mizuna leaves are a source of vitamins A, C, K, and minerals such as zinc, magnesium, calcium, phosphorus, and folic acid. Thanks to these components, mizuna microgreens support the nervous system, eyesight, bone health, and skin health.

Flavour and Usage

Mizuna microgreens have a slightly spicy taste with a subtle mustard undertone. Their distinct flavour makes them an excellent addition to a wide range of dishes. They can be added to sandwiches, salads, slaws, soups, sauces, and stews. They also work well as a garnish for platters and plates, giving dishes a unique appearance and aroma. Young mizuna leaves are a versatile addition to Mediterranean and Asian cuisines, but equally enhance a variety of dishes.

Preparation for Cultivation

Growing mizuna microgreens is incredibly simple and does not require specialised knowledge or equipment. You will need a shallow container or microgreens tray, a substrate (e.g., universal soil, peat, or coconut mat), and seeds. Premium mizuna seeds available at Garden Seeds Market are the best choice as they guarantee a high germination rate. Before sowing, it's worth preparing the substrate properly, ensuring it has a light, permeable structure. Mizuna microgreens seeds are sown densely and evenly on the surface of the substrate, then lightly pressed down. There is no need to cover them with soil, which prevents leaf contamination. Watering is done with a sprayer, ensuring gentle and even substrate moisture.

Site Conditions

Mizuna thrives best in a bright and warm location with access to natural light. In the spring-summer season, it can be grown on a balcony, terrace, or windowsill. In the autumn-winter months, home cultivation is equally effective. The optimal growing temperature is between 18-22°C. To achieve healthy and evenly developed microgreens, it is important to provide the plants with adequate light. If daylight is insufficient, LED plant lights can be used.

Cultivation

Growing mizuna microgreens takes 10 to 14 days. Seeds begin to germinate 2-3 days after sowing. To speed up the germination process, the container can be covered with light-blocking foil, creating a humid microclimate. After germination, the foil should be removed, and the container placed in a well-lit area. During cultivation, microgreens should be sprayed with water 1-2 times a day to maintain the appropriate substrate moisture level. When the microgreens reach a height of 2.5-7.5 cm and produce their first true leaves, they are ready for harvest. Harvesting is done just above the substrate surface using a sharp knife or scissors.

Harvesting

The harvest of mizuna microgreens is carried out 2-3 weeks after sowing, when the leaves reach the appropriate height and develop true leaves. Cutting is done at a level just above the substrate, allowing clean, healthy, and ready-to-eat leaves. The harvest of microgreens is a one-time process, meaning the sowing process must be repeated to obtain subsequent yields. The yield of premium seeds available at Garden Seeds Market allows for repeated cultivation of microgreens from a single seed packet.
