While chia seeds are well known, their microgreen counterparts are less popular yet boast even more health benefits than the seeds!
Chia microgreens are loaded with antioxidants, fibre, and omega-3 fatty acids for heart health along with the muscle-building block and protein. Also high in vitamin A, K, C & E, minerals, chlorophyll and amino acids.

FAQs
What is the optimum growing temperature?
Microgreens can be grown indoors all year round and temperature plays a major role in how quickly microgreens grow.
Generally, between 18–24 degrees celcius is optimal.
Below 12 degrees and the microgreens will struggle to germinate and above 25 degrees they're may get too hot and start "cooking" the seeds.
Do the microgreens re-grow once harvested?
Each seedmat is single-use and will not re-grow once harvested. When you have finished a mat, you'll need to start a new seedmat.
Pod tip: you can throw the used mat into your garden and you'll soon find vegetables will start popping up from the slower growing seeds!
Can I use my own seeds?
Our seedmats come pre-loaded with over 440 microgreen seeds per mat as well as a touch of plant nutrients to help them grow lush and tasty. Because they are already seeded, you can't currently use your own seeds.
However, we are working on a growing medium which will allow you to do this - so watch this space!
Are your microgreen seeds organic?
Currently, the Rocket and the Broccoli are the only certified organic seed variety. All the other seed varieties are untreated and non-GMO.
