Wait Until You See These Time Lapse Photos of Sunflower Micro Greens Growing!

I like clear plastic salad mix boxes, which are food safe and easily available. But the real magic comes from watching the salad box fill with fresh greens in days to weeks. It’s a fun project to get your garden therapy in the winter and you will love how great they taste. It’s easy to do as well. See the step-by-step instructions in this post:

Now come along on a photo journey of how these greens grow, from seed to sprout!
