Wetsel Kale Seed

While exact timing depends on your specific indoor environment, most microgreens are ready to harvest within 7 to 14 days after germination. You can harvest them as soon as the first set of true leaves appears.

Not at all. These seeds are designed for simple, shallow containers like trays or repurposed food containers. While supplemental bottom heat can speed up germination, it is optional as long as you keep the seeds in a warm, bright spot.

Red Russian Kale microgreens are significantly milder and sweeter than their mature counterparts. They offer a tender texture and a delicate, fresh flavor that works well in salads, sandwiches, or as a garnish without the bitterness sometimes found in full-grown kale.

These seeds thrive in bright light, so a sunny windowsill is ideal. If your space lacks direct light, you may notice the seedlings becoming 'leggy' or stretching toward the light; in that case, a simple LED grow light can help ensure a compact, healthy harvest.

Consistent moisture is key, but avoid soaking the seeds. Using a spray bottle to mist the soil surface daily is the most effective way to keep them hydrated without washing away the seeds or causing mold from overwatering.
