Microgreens are leafy vegetables which are grown close together and harvested when only the seed leaves and first true leaves have formed. They have become extremely popular recently and are often used as garnish. They also claim health benefits as they are packed full of nutrients. They are easy to grow, all year round, in seed trays filled with compost. Grow them in a greenhouse or on a sunny window sill. Coriander produces a medium green lobed leaf with a hint of coriander flavour. It is a slightly slower growing microgreen and should be ready in about 24 days. How to grow: Fill a seed tray to a depth of about 5 cm with good organic compost. The seedlings require very little nutrient so a seed compost is best. Press the compost down quite firmly and sow the seeds to cover the surface aiming for a seed every cm. Water carefully and cover with a transparent lid, or similar, until they germinate. Remove the cover and water carefully as necessary every day. Remember to resow trays every couple of weeks for a continuous supply.
