Vitamins and minerals in Mizuna

Fragile Mizuna plants
Mizuna is a small and fragile plant especially as sprouts. Therefore I recommend, that you rinse them with great care. This is because the plants will rot if they break during your culitivation. To prevent this you can put a Faucet Aerator on your tap. This will allow you to make the water jets very soft. See the Faucet Aerator >
Taste and use in food
Mizuna has a lovely taste of pepper and Mustard mixed together. This makes Mizuna a wonderful addition in both salad, sandwiches, wraps and dips. I personally do not find Mizuna suitable for smoothies but many use them for the popular Buddha bowls as the plants are very beautiful.
Cultivation time of organic Mizuna seeds for Microgreens
You can grow your organic Mizuna seeds into either sprouts or microgreens. If your kitchen temperature is 18-23 ° C / 64-73 ° F, your Mizuna sprouts should be ready for harvest after 6 days of cultivation. At the same temperature, they should have grown to mature microgreens after a total of 12 days.
Cultivation device for Mizuna microgreens
As Mizuna is a gelling – mucilaginous – seed, they need to grow on a special substrate. Because of this a Hemp mat or Organic Cotton Woll is needed under the seeds. The substrate is needed to grow both Mizuna sprouts and microgreens. See Hemp mat.
Microgreens need light and fertilizer
If you grow Mizuna Microgreens, then the plants need artificial light and extra fertilizer from day 7 of the cultivation. Under MICRO KIT you can find descriptions about the right amount of light and fertilizer for Microgreens when you use each product. Visit Micro Kit.

TIPS FOR RUCOLA SPROUTS & MICROGREENS
COTTON OR HEMP MAT
Rucola or Arugula need to grow on cotton woll or hemp mats as these seeds are mucilaginous - they form gel when wet. Whether you choose cotton or hemp is not important. However, it is important, that you choose 100% organic quality. This way your plants do not absorb unwanted substances, but can grow well and healthy for your benefit.
CHOOSE SPROUTING SEEDS
You can often buy Rucola - Arugula - Garden rocked seeds for garden cultivation. But garden seeds are often sprayed with anti-fungi to help them withstand the natural fungi and bacteria in soil. However, anti-fungi will give you a stomach ache, so always only buy certified sprouting seeds for your sprouts and microgreens cultivation.You may also like…
