Botanical Interests Italian Amaro Blend Microgreens Seeds

Go Italian with Botanical Interests special blend of chicories! Like salt on chocolate, a balsamic dressing or soy sauce will enhance the flavor of these lively Italian greens. Also delicious pair with soft cheeses. This is a mix of popular Italian chicories for distinct flavor; a slightly bitter taste for zing, and are full of nutrients, aiding in digestion. Mix includes: 60% Italian chicory, 20% curly endive, and 20% escarole. Sow indoors any time of the year!

Sowing Information:

  • Light: Indirect light 
  • When to Start Inside: RECOMMENDED. Sow indoors any time of year. For a continual crop, sow every 7 to 14 days. 
  • When to Sow Outside: Not recommended. Microgreens are fragile and outside soil makes them difficult to clean.  
  • Seed Depth: Plant seeds ⅛-¼ inch deep 
  • Seed Spacing: Space seeds ¼-½ inch apart 
  • Thinning: Not required 
  • Days to Germinate: 7-10 days 
  • Days to Maturity: 15-25 days 

Growing Notes:

  • Variety Info: As microgreens, tiny, green leaves with slightly bitter flavor. 
  • Harvesting: When seedlings emerge, the first pair of leaves to show are the cotyledons, which can look very different from the leaves that follow, called "true" leaves. Microgreens are ready to harvest when they have cotyledons, or when the first true leaves have begun to form, depending on preference. Cool growing temperatures may slow the expected amount of days to maturity. Using scissors, cut microgreens just above the soil line when you are ready to use them.
