Decided to do Microgreen cultivation and we started off with Moong (Green Gram)
After following various YouTube instructions we finally got this.
The procedure was easy, especially when soil is not involved. You just tear some old news paper and make that your base in a flat basin (the bigger the better as you get enough crop for a one time use) On top put a layer of tissue paper and sprinkle the sprouted green gram.
Keep sprinkling water on a daily basis to keep it moist. Direct sunlight is not necessary but keep it in a well lit place.
It is nice to see the tender leaves sprouting up
After eight to ten days it is time to harvest
You can gently lift off the green along with the stalk and the roots.
Some say that you can consume the roots too as there is no soil, but we chose to take only the stalk and the leaves.
Apart from it being highly nutritious, we found it to be tasty too.
