To grow microelline at home, expensive equipment or special boarding material will be required. Indeed, under the mysterious term "Micro Greens" hide shoots of the most ordinary garden plants. When the first real leaves appear on seedlings, they become a concentrate of biologically active substances and at this moment they are recommended to eat.

Mass options: Delicious fresh greens are added to, salads, sandwiches, side dishes, soups, or are simply supported, without any additives.

Grow useful product It is possible year-round, even on the windowsill in the urban apartment. Two weeks after landing, we will collect an excellent harvest. Costs are minimal - you only need to constantly fill the sowing fund. Many species of plants cost without soil, the wave of wet maril or tissue is enough.

Unlike seedlings, which keep in the dark, microelectrics need light. And the more, the better, since under its impact in the first leaves, the strongest antioxidant and the natural antibiotic - chlorophyll is formed. Some plants are demanding of the light, others can safely develop in the shaded room.

In the autumn-winter period, when the sun is not enough, it is recommended to pay attention to:

• arugula
• leaf Mustian
• radish
• daikon
• cress Salad.
• mitsuna.

These plants boost quickly and do not require additional highlighting LED lamps.

Starting from the spring, the day begins to add and you can diversify your "mini-garden" with more vibrant cultures. Here is a list of the most popular of them.

Grass and grain:

• buckwheat
• barley
• corn
• wheat
• amaranth
• sunflower.

• lentil
• peas
• fenugreek
• clover
• alfalfa.

• beet
• broccoli
• white and red cabbage
• carrot
• pumpkin.

Salad vegetables:

• spinach
• latuk
• leek
• pak Choi.

Spices:

• kinza
• dill
• parsley
• basil
• marjoram
• coriander
• fenugreek.

Benefit and harm

When the sprout appears, the seed gives it all the beneficial substances necessary for further livelihoods. Using a plant in the stage of microelling, we get at least twice as much valuable elements than adult copies.

Moreover, the product is much easier to digest than, for example, dishes from finished croup and legumes, possessing almost zero calorie.

Especially a lot in all without exception of small sprouts of vitamin C, the concentration of which is significantly reduced as all new leaves appear.

Due to the presence of a large number of active substances, any microeraine will help our body:

1. Direct energy and increase the vitality, which is doubly relevant in the cold season.
2. Strengthen the immune system, reduce the number of viral and colds, stop chronic inflammatory processes.
3. Clean the toxins and poisons, including drug origin, radiation, effects of improper nutrition.
4. Improve metabolism. Reduce the likelihood of diabetes mellitus, hypertension, vegetative-vascular dystonia, the appearance of malignant tumors.
5. Rejuvenate at the cellular level, improve the condition of the skin, nails and hair. Get rid of acne, pigment spots, dermatological problems, fungus.
6. Normalize the operation of the gastrointestinal tract.
7. Stabilize the hormonal background and the work of the endocrine system.

Each plant has its own individual healing properties. Our table shows some of them.

What you need to fear

The harm to our body may not apply the greens itself (provided that we have no individual intolerance), and the incorrectly selected soil for its cultivation or planting material.

Attention!

For microeramin, it is impossible to buy land in ordinary flower shops.

Soil mixtures for houseplants are enriched with mineral fertilizers, growth stimulants and other substances that can benefit decorative plantings, but not for us.

If the microeraine takes from the soil all the listed chemistry and "deliver" to our table, it is unlikely that we will find it with its help. It is best to use the Earth from the garden plot or the forest - it is the most eco-friendly.

There are also options for the germination of "Microhrinov" at all without soil. But such seedlings will be some poorer with the useful substances.

Attention!

Purchased seeds of garden crops are often treated with chemicals to increase the germination and protect against pests. Such seating material is categorically not suitable for microelling.

Exit - either acquire seeds in specialized stores, or, which is much more economical and more reliable, to take from our own "country" stocks.

How to grow microelectric

Buying ready-made sprouts - expensive and ineffective, because they will "reach" to us, will lose the most valuable substances.

And why make yourself deliberately troubles, if you can easily equip your own "mini-garden"? Options for germination of microelectric seeds are several. To begin with, consider the way to plant in the ground, as the most optimal product in terms of the purity of the product, on the real example.

Growing Japanese cabbage on microell: Personal master class

In winter, we lack natural vitamins. Not one pharmacy means and dietary supplements will not replace those useful substances that are in fresh greenery. Unfortunately, we collect the harvest only at the end of the summer and early autumn. On the rest of the time we buy products in stores. But often they are grown on special growth accelerators, pesticides and other harmful substances. Therefore, such a greens in best case Nothing will give anything other than taste sensations, and there is often no taste too.


I want to offer to grow micro-chain on the windowsill. As the manufacturer assures, the crop will be after 10 days. The plant is very unpretentious, no need to add special fertilizers, follow the temperature and humidity. The main thing is not to overwhelm the land and water in time. The microeraine grown on the windowsill can be added to almost any dishes, even in the first, even in the second, you can make a sandwich or put in a salad.

Micro Greens perfectly feels like a windowsill, regardless of the season. I grow it almost round year.

My choice fell on the Mitsun Mixa variety. This is a kind of Japanese cabbage, which grows very quickly, has a pleasant gentle taste And unpretentious in care. Despite the fact that on the package it was written: "The backlight is desirable", I did not use any lamps. The sprouts that we see in the photographs were obtained in February.

Although it is advised to eat ten-day plants, they sometimes grow to two weeks. It makes no sense to wait longer - the number of useful micro and macroelements will begin to decrease.

And now the details of the process.

We need:

• package of microcelions;
• any plastic container;
• soil - in this case, special, for seedlings;
• water temperature water;
• food film.

How to plant and grow at home

First, you need to prepare the container. Many believe that the garden on the balcony requires high costs. But in fact, the opposite is the opposite. I never buy, or do it very rarely, some special containers for planting. Typically, I take any plastic container that remains after the food. In our case, I took a bowl from under fresh champignons. It was well waved and dried.


Next we do as follows:

Method number 1.

Method number 2.

So all the subtleties of growing microelling on the windowsill. As you can see, this is a simple work on which there is no time to spend a lot of time and effort.

For those who are interested in the financial side of the issue, I specifically considered the cost.

Soil 10 l - 55 rub. This is somewhere 3 kg. For microellin, it is necessary to use no more than 500 g, that is, it turns out about 10 rubles.

The cost of the package of microelectric order is 45-50 rubles. What you see the container planted is approximately 1/10 bag. That is, a total of 100 rubles, you will receive 10 such crop containers, which are presented in the photo.

Growing greens on the windowsill, especially in winter, not only useful, but also very profitable.

How to grow microelling without land

If you mumble with the soil for some reason I do not want to try alternative methods.

Hydroponics

In this case, a simple and convenient erasure for microelectric will come to the rescue. It is a deep pallet container with a lid and a cellular liner separated by several "boxes".


The design allows you to plant several types of plants simultaneously without mixing them between themselves.

It is quite possible to pick up instead of purchased container any of the home resources. For example, insert plastic sieve into a deep wool and cover everything with food film.

1. Machine seeds depending on the type of "microhyrins" from 2 to 12 hours.
2. Then we pour them into the sakes - "boxes" of the extensive. Seeds are distributed along the bottom of the liner mesh thick, but in one layer. There is a small subtlety: usually in industrial containers, the mesh in each compartment has a different cell diameter. It is necessary to ensure that our planting material does not fail.
3. In the lower deep pallet pour water so that it takes to the level of the grid (there is a special mark in the purchased models).
4. We insert the grid-liner with seeds and close the capacity with the lid. We put the container in the bright, warm place and wait until the seedlings appear.
5. As soon as it happened, we start to remove the cover from about 30 minutes every day - to air the plants. As need, we ware seeds from the spray gun. If the water in the pallet begins to smell unpleasantly, replace it with fresh.
6. A week later, our shoots reached the stage of microelectrics. Carefully cut them with scissors, and removing the remaining roots from the grid. Thoroughly rinse the container with soda, and it is again ready for landing.

Growing in a bank

This method is perhaps the easiest and not costly. Its minus is that we will not be able to germina to 2-3 leaves, as it would be in a soil or hydroponic method. At the same time, the most useful shoots have barely emerged, so we will not lose anything.

We need:

• glass jar, volume ½ - 1 l;
• seeds for microelectrics;
• medical Marley;
• bank gum or twine;
• water room temperature.

In the bank it is better to germinate large seeds, for example, corn, legumes, buckwheat, wheat, oats, sunflower or pumpkin. Behind small, it will be difficult to care for.

Growing

1. We rinse the seating material from yesterday and lay in the bank. Add dilated water. Seeds should be a bit, taking into account the fact that, sweeping, they will increase approximately three times.
2. Capacity Leave overnight in a cool place, otherwise the fermentation process will begin.
3. In the morning we close the neck of gauze banks and merge water. Leave quite a bit at the bottom so that the seeds are in a wet environment.
4. We put the bank of the side of the side at a low angle, so our "microgrinam" will be more comfortable. Capacity should be in a bright, cool, well ventilated place.
5. In the evening we pour water into the bank and shook out, rinse seeds. If a foam appeared, repeat the procedure until it disappears. Again put the bank at an angle and leave for the night.
6. In the morning we rinse seeds. And so until greens appear with leaves.

Substrate for microelectrics

The basis for the germination of grains can be a medical gauze, wool, toilet paper, coconut fiber, peat or vermiculite.


Consider germination on Marle (cotton) as the most affordable.

It will take:

• any suitable tray;
• gauze, which can be collapsed 7 times and fastened the bottom (cotton spread by one layer);
• planting material, pre-closed for several hours;
• water.

Growing

1. We put the gauze into the tray by sprinkling each layer of the spray.
2. We distribute seeds over the surface. Rawly dense, leaving very small gaps.
3. Tighten the food film and put it in a dark place.
4. After a day, the seeds will release roots. It's time to transfer them to the windowsill. Carefully follow the substrate so that it does not stop, as needed to sprinkle with water.
5. After 5-7 days we collect a vitamin harvest.

Briefly about storage

Cut greens can be placed in a sealed container or a package and keep in the refrigerator in a branch for vegetables 6-10 days.

Taste, benefit, beauty: recipes with microeraine

Young gentle shoots are perfectly combined with almost all products: meat, fish, bird, cottage cheese, other vegetables and even fruit.

Tomato soup
Of course, you need to take into account taste shades. For example, the sharp mustard will give piquancy with hot dishes, and the arugula sometimes put in desserts.

Microelectric Salad "Medical"

Solid vitamins - this is how it is correctly called it is simple in the cooking dish. By regularly using it for breakfast or dinner, we can get rid of excess weight, strengthen immunity and improve their joints.

We need:

• large apple and carrots 1 pcs.
• celery Stem - 2 pcs.
• bulb - 1 pc.
• sunflower microeraine - beam
• pumpkin seeds.

For refueling:

• 1 tbsp. l. Orange and lemon juice

Cooking

1. Apple and celery with a thin straw, onion - half rings.
2. Carrots way on a large grater (you can take a shock for Korean snacks).
3. Citrus juice I. olive oil Whip.
4. We refuel our vegetables with the resulting mixture and lay out in a salad bowl. We decorate the "microgrine" on top and sprinkle with seeds.

Green cocktail with cucumber

Refreshing drink will surely enjoy healthy nutrition.

Ingredients:

• kefir - 250 ml
• large cucumber - 1 pc.
• kinse or parsley microcellane - 1 beam
• salt and pepper to taste.

Preparing

All ingredients are mixed in a blender until homogeneous. Cocktail you need to drink immediately.

And for dessert:

Caramelized pear with ice cream and arugula

Spicy dessert will delight the challenging "game" tastes and the minimum calorie.

We need:

• pear - 2 pcs.
• sugar - 1 cup
• creamy oil - 100g
• ice cream - 100 g
• microelectric arugula - a small beam
• spices: Cinnamon and Vanilla.

How to cook

1. Pears clean and cut into large slices.
2. In the pan melted oil, add sugar and, vigorously stirring, make caramel. Add pear slices, withstand in a sweet mass until they darken and do not become soft. To interfere without ceasing, so that caramel does not "grab". At the end of adding spices.
3. Ice cream lay out in the creamy, decorate with pieces of pears and arugula.

Be sure to pay attention to the microcella. It will give a lot of pleasure and in the process of cultivation, and while eating.

   Hello! How understood you are using non-special seeds for microzen, and what will you find? I, for example, found Lucerne, clover, etc. in the Garden Department, where Siderats were sold. Are these seeds for microelennia or are they are so terrible processed? Just buy special seeds of 1500 kg for example or 200 p for 100 grams. For example, although I understand that it is better not to save on health. But still I want to understand the difference between these seeds on the Siderats and seeds of specialized.

9. Oksana

   Thank you so much for the detailed answer! Then I will use seed seeds. And what are you still tearing? .. It's better to ask what you do not tear up?))))

      Beans do not tear off, but I must admit that I do not remember about the beans of any caution (although it may well be that in one of the articles I have written about this, but I just don't remember). From the legumes, soy love germinated, I recommend (we have a relatively cheap in the form of a semi-fodder culture. That is, boiled soybeans are not very tasty, but the seedlings just right. If you think about 30 rubles, it turns out for kg (10 hryvnia )).
      Flax is cool - it costs literally a penny, a small seed gives a very good sprouting, never once there was nothing, not moldy. But the wet seeds make the mucus and it annoys it a little))) Lipness they))). Flax better to germinate or sawdust.
      Regarding books - you will have to refresh my memory. Later I will definitely write.

      1. Oksana

         and Lena do you grow seeds or grow on microcellate? And soy to buy worry. How many times we met that there was almost no GMO soy in the world. So refrained, especially since there are many different useful and delicious seeds for germination. And I have not seen a buckwheat on your microeraine list. Can I grow on my microzen or better seedlings? I do not like the seedlings of buckwheat, because they like snotty getting ...

         1. Jane Craft Recording Author

            Flax eat at the seedlings stage. Buckwheat remains with mucus, but those who are very deepened in the theme eaten the unjected crude buck of daily "grooves" precisely because of the mucus. I do not adhere to vegan canons - if something is frankly unpleasant to me, I will not eat. And without sin there is a lot of delicious seedlings))).

This term appeared relatively recently, and denotes various salads cut 10 days after the first searches. This is a micro-greens. Many gardeners, in a couple of days they collect 2-3-day jerks of cucumbers, are the so-called peaks. However, not everyone understands what makes sense, - and, of course, on the one hand they are right.

Therapeutic properties of microcellenium

If you get deeper and start to understand what benefits bring such micro-vegetables and micro-greens, you can find out that such zeroshi have a number of unique substances, most of which are deprived of already matured vegetables and greens.

Well, and of course, such greens is very rapidly grown!

Main types of microcellenium

Moreover, each of these cultures has a unique taste and a whole storehouse of useful substances! You can also grow most of the types of cabbage, as well as cereals.

It should be noted that this technology of cultivation provides for the cultivation of micro-culture from seeds. The exception is made up, except for onion crops, such as a shallot or fragrant bow, which have a very subtle "feather", which fully corresponds to the term "micro-greens".

Micro-greens are mostly customary to grown in monoculture, but permissible and mixing of several plant species. Self pick up the desired combination of plants that germinate at the same time, quite difficult, so we advise you to contact specialized stores, where ready-made mixes are sold.

In general, the cultivation of micro-greenery will not cause completely no difficulties in newcomers, besides, such plants like Beijing cabbage, cress and mustard grow very quickly, which allows you to quickly see the ready-made result.

Seeds need to be drained evenly over the entire surface of the container, on the surface of the pre-moist and compacted soil, then sprinkle the coating ground and are seal again. Before the appearance of the first sprouts, the container must be put in a dark place. But, with the advent of the first sprouts, the container must be put on a bright place, the windowsill. In the future, the plant does not require special and complex care - it is only necessary to moisten the soil in a timely manner, to observe the necessary temperature, and if necessary, to establish additional light sources.

Harvesting

You can proceed to the harvest of the height of 7 - 10 cm. You can cut all the greens, but then the new mini-guy is required. The most rational to carry out selective cleaning, adjusting the lingerie of the standing of plants. Sluorrow provides the remaining copies of a larger nutrition area and creates favorable conditions for further development.
