Rich and vibrant: Beet – Bull’s Blood microgreens are celebrated for their deep burgundy stems and rich, earthy flavor. Packed with essential nutrients like iron, potassium, and antioxidants, they are as visually striking as they are health-boosting. Their sweet, slightly tangy taste and vivid color make them a favorite addition to salads, smoothies, and garnishes.

How to Grow: Growing Bull’s Blood beet microgreens starts with evenly scattering the seeds over a well-moistened, well-draining soil medium. Gently press the seeds into the soil but do not bury them. Mist thoroughly and cover the tray with a lid or another tray to create a dark, humid environment. Keep the tray at a temperature between 65°F and 75°F and mist daily to maintain consistent moisture. Germination typically occurs within 5–7 days. Once the seedlings emerge, remove the cover and provide indirect sunlight or grow lights to promote healthy growth.

Harvesting: Bull’s Blood beet microgreens are ready to harvest when they reach 1–2 inches in height, typically within 10–20 days. Look for their characteristic dark red stems and fresh green leaves. Use clean scissors to snip the microgreens just above the soil line. Rinse gently and dry before use. These microgreens are perfect for enhancing the presentation and flavor of salads, sandwiches, and soups or for blending into smoothies for a nutrient-packed boost.
