Microgreens Jumpstart Kit Care Guide

🌱 Microgreens Jumpstart Kit Field Guide

📦 Unboxing & Setup

  • 🧺 2 microgreen seed trays
  • 🌿 2 hemp grow mats (5" x 5")
  • 🌱 Seed packs: Broccoli, Radish, Speckled Peas

🛠️ Setup Instructions

  • 1️⃣ Place a hemp mat in each seed tray.
  • 2️⃣ Dampen the mat evenly with clean water—just enough to make it moist.
  • 3️⃣ Sprinkle a generous, even layer of one seed type per tray. Cover the entire surface.
  • 4️⃣ Cover the tray with a lid or another tray to block light. This helps the seeds sprout evenly (2–3 days).
  • 5️⃣ After sprouting, remove the cover and place in bright light. Mist daily.
💧 Don’t over-saturate—just keep the hemp mat evenly moist.
