Beginner's Guide

Your first tray of pea shoot microgreens, from seed to harvest in 10 to 14 days.

A step-by-step guide to one of the most forgiving microgreens for beginners: large seed, vigorous germination and a sweet shoot that tastes like fresh peas. Includes the measured soak (8–12 h) and optional pre-sprouting, single-layer sowing, the 3–5 day blackout, light and bottom watering, the exact harvest point, and a day-by-day schedule. Plus the key warning about the right seed (Pisum sativum, never sweet pea) and why peas are a cool-weather crop. Units in metric and US.

Who it's for: complete beginners, or anyone who has tried another microgreen and wants a tender-stemmed, fast-to-harvest crop.
