  • Publication number: 20220210981
    Abstract: A method for optimizing growth of microgreens is provided. The method includes planting individual microgreens within growing racks supported on vertically spaced shelves or on a common height on a single horizontal shelf. An ideal distance is calculated for the spacing of the vertical shelves when using fixed wattage grow lights, and an ideal wattage is calculated for one or more grow lights, which may be LEDs. Adjustable wattage grow lights may be utilized for a common height setup. An ideal wavelength range is also applied, for enhancing desired colors in the final product. The microgreen seeds are planted in an organic nutrient solution derived from ocean water. A natural fungicide including ingredients such as molasses and lactic acid is applied, which allows room temperature to be raised to a calculated level, allowing for increased growth rates and yield without development of unwanted fungi.
