Description
Onion sprouts and microgreens are increasingly popular among indoor gardeners due to their rapid growth and nutritional benefits. These small, tender plants are not only easy to cultivate but also provide a fresh addition to various dishes. This guide will provide insights into the process of growing onion sprouts and microgreens indoors, focusing on the necessary conditions, techniques, and benefits.
Onion sprouts typically germinate within 7 to 14 days, making them an excellent choice for those seeking a quick harvest.
Soak the seeds in water for a few hours before planting can enhance germination rates, as it allows the seeds to absorb moisture and initiate the sprouting process.
For indoor cultivation, a shallow tray filled with a growing medium, such as potting soil or coconut coir, is recommended. The medium should be moistened but not overly saturated, as excess water can lead to mold growth. Once the seeds are evenly spread across the surface, a light layer of soil can be added to cover them. Maintaining a consistent moisture level is crucial during the germination phase.
Light is another critical factor in the successful growth of onion sprouts and microgreens. They require approximately 12 to 16 hours of light daily. Natural sunlight is ideal, but if this is not available, using fluorescent or LED grow lights can effectively supplement their needs. Positioning the lights about 2 to 4 inches above the plants will help prevent leggy growth while ensuring adequate light exposure.
Temperature also plays a significant role in the growth of onion sprouts. A range of 65Β°F to 75Β°F (18Β°C to 24Β°C) is optimal for germination and growth. Monitoring the temperature and adjusting the environment as necessary will promote healthy development. Additionally, good air circulation is essential to prevent fungal diseases, which can be a concern in indoor settings.
Harvesting onion sprouts and microgreens can begin once they reach about 2 to 4 inches in height, typically within 10 to 20 days after planting. Using scissors, cut the sprouts just above the soil line. This method allows for a clean harvest while minimizing damage to the remaining roots, which may allow for a second harvest if conditions are favorable.
Incorporating onion sprouts and microgreens into your diet can provide numerous health benefits. They are rich in vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants, contributing to overall well-being. Additionally, growing these plants indoors can enhance your culinary experience, providing fresh flavors and textures to salads, sandwiches, and garnishes.
In conclusion, growing onion sprouts and microgreens indoors is a straightforward and rewarding endeavor. With the right conditions and care, you can enjoy a continuous supply of fresh greens, enhancing both your meals and your gardening skills.

Milkweed, Tropical (Silky Deep Red/Blood Flower) Flowers
From $499 USDUnit price /UnavailableDescription
Silky Deep Red Tropical Milkweed (Asclepias curassavica), also called Blood Flower, is striking in the garden and is a vital host plant for the endangered monarch butterfly. This easy care bushy perennial reseeds easily, isnβt fussy about soil or water, and can grow just about anywhere. Puts out bright, showy 2"-4" flower clusters in brilliant red-orange with yellow centers on slender stems that grow 2'-3' tall. Blooms continuously summer through fall, providing migrating monarchs with nectar snacks for their long journey and a place to lay their eggs. Can be grown as an annual in cooler grow zones. Lovely and long-lasting in cut flower arrangements.
- Life cycle: Herbaceous perennial
- Bloom season: Summer, fall
- Attracts: Beneficial insects, hummingbirds, bees, butterflies, and other pollinators
- Flower meaning: Dignity, freedom, rejection, remembrance, solitude
As a medicinal plant, Milkweed has been used internally to treat diarrhea, gonorrhea, intestinal parasites and worms, pneumonia, spleen inflammation, and stomach tumors, and externally to treat bleeding, boils, corns, dermatitis, eye infections, ringworm, skin parasites, snakebites, sores, warts, and wounds.
β οΈ Although Milkweed is known to be safe when used correctly, all parts of the plant are toxic and may even cause death to people, pets, horses, and livestock if ingested in large quantities. The milky sap is a skin irritant. Do not ingest while pregnant or nursing.
β οΈ Medicinal properties are presented as information only, and are not a recommendation or prescription for use. Consult a medical professional before using any plant medicinally.
NOTE: A parasite, Ophryocystis elektroscirrha (OE), travels with monarchs and is deposited on every plant they visit. In warm grow zones where this non-native milkweed does not die back from a killing frost, the OE parasite can build up and harm the caterpillars that feed on the leaves and the butterflies they become. A continuously blooming milkweed may also encourage the monarchs to dally rather than migrate, which interrupts their reproductive cycle. Itβs easy to eliminate both dangers, by cutting your plants to the ground at least once per season.
SEED PLANTING TIPS
- Botanical name: Asclepias curassavica
- Hardiness zones: 8-11
- Planting season: Spring, fall
- Days to maturity: 100-120 days
- Cold stratify: No
- Depth to plant seeds: 1/4" deep - Soaking seeds in warm water overnight aids germination.
- Spacing between plants: 1'-2' apart
- Days to germinate (sprout): 10-21 days
- Germination soil temps: 60F-70F
- Soil types: Clay, caliche, sandy, loamy, silty, rocky, chalky, rich, dry, moist, wet
- Soil pH: 6.1-7.5
- Water needs: Average
- Sun needs: Full sun, part shade
- Frost tolerant: No
- Drought tolerant: Yes
- Deer resistant: Yes
More facts about Milkweed:
- TheΒ beautiful monarch butterflies rely on milkweed to lay their eggs upon. Sadly, habitats that naturally support monarchs are becoming fewer in number each year. New urban development & chemically treated "big agriculture" are destroying habitats of milkweed all over the United States.
- Sow in early January for first year blooms.
