Snip microgreens at <strong>7-14 days</strong> when 5-8 cm tall, or let plants grow on for fuller leaves and pods.</p>

Frequently asked questions

When can I sow garden cress in India?
Garden cress grows year-round indoors and on balconies, but the cool season (October-February) gives the best leafy growth. In summer keep it in light shade and water often to stop it bolting.
How fast is garden cress ready to harvest?
Very fast. Seeds sprout in 3-7 days and microgreens are ready to snip in about 7-14 days. It is one of the quickest edibles you can grow from seed at home.
