Which whole (shell intact) sunflower microgreen seeds, the germination rate is extremely high. This 9 Oz. bag of whole sunflower microgreen seeds is premeasured for planting in our 21\" x 11\" tray. Soak seeds in cold water for 8 to 12 hours. You can plant directly, but we prefer to transfer to a colander. Rinse 2 to 4 times a day in the colander for another day or two until the seedlings begin to peek through the shell. Tamp the soil gently to flatten. Spread evenly (they should be quite thick) and tamp very gently to insure contact with the soil. Mist thoroughly twice a day. Keep covered with the blackout \/ humidity dome for 3 to 4 more days before exposing light. Water once a day so the soil is damp but not soggy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c!--split--\u003e","published_at":"2017-06-21T17:00:24-06:00","created_at":"2017-06-21T17:00:27-06:00","vendor":"Mountain Valley Seed Co.","type":"Microgreens Seeds","tags":["8-12 Days","Green","Microgreens","Non-GMO","Open Pollinated","Organic","Seeds","Soil","Sunflower","Warmer"],"price":1324,"price_min":1324,"price_max":31451,"available":true,"price_varies":true,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":38494671112,"title":"1 lb","option1":"1 lb","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"34248","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":true,"featured_image":{"id":5478396559475,"product_id":9930147272,"position":1,"created_at":"2018-10-23T14:45:49-06:00","updated_at":"2018-10-23T14:46:13-06:00","alt":"Sunflower - Black Oil (organic) - Microgreens Seeds","width":700,"height":700,"src":"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2016\/2681\/products\/sunflower-greens-wm_700_a21f1224-ad75-455e-9ade-7879b7471e70.jpg?v=1540327573","variant_ids":[38494671112,38494671176,38494671240,208827351048]},"available":true,"name":"Sunflower - Black Oil (organic) - Microgreens Seeds - 1 lb","public_title":"1 lb","options":["1 lb"],"price":1324,"weight":513,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":"740006019285"},{"id":38494671176,"title":"5 lb","option1":"5 lb","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"34249","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":true,"featured_image":{"id":5478396559475,"product_id":9930147272,"position":1,"created_at":"2018-10-23T14:45:49-06:00","updated_at":"2018-10-23T14:46:13-06:00","alt":"Sunflower - Black Oil (organic) - Microgreens Seeds","width":700,"height":700,"src":"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2016\/2681\/products\/sunflower-greens-wm_700_a21f1224-ad75-455e-9ade-7879b7471e70.jpg?v=1540327573","variant_ids":[38494671112,38494671176,38494671240,208827351048]},"available":true,"name":"Sunflower - Black Oil (organic) - Microgreens Seeds - 5 lb","public_title":"5 lb","options":["5 lb"],"price":3743,"weight":2381,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":"740006005073"},{"id":38494671240,"title":"25 lb","option1":"25 lb","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"34251","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":true,"featured_image":{"id":5478396559475,"product_id":9930147272,"position":1,"created_at":"2018-10-23T14:45:49-06:00","updated_at":"2018-10-23T14:46:13-06:00","alt":"Sunflower - Black Oil (organic) - Microgreens Seeds","width":700,"height":700,"src":"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2016\/2681\/products\/sunflower-greens-wm_700_a21f1224-ad75-455e-9ade-7879b7471e70.jpg?v=1540327573","variant_ids":[38494671112,38494671176,38494671240,208827351048]},"available":true,"name":"Sunflower - Black Oil (organic) - Microgreens Seeds - 25 lb","public_title":"25 lb","options":["25 lb"],"price":16767,"weight":11567,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":"740006005080"},{"id":208827351048,"title":"50 lb","option1":"50 lb","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"17835","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":true,"featured_image":{"id":5478396559475,"product_id":9930147272,"position":1,"created_at":"2018-10-23T14:45:49-06:00","updated_at":"2018-10-23T14:46:13-06:00","alt":"Sunflower - Black Oil (organic) - Microgreens Seeds","width":700,"height":700,"src":"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2016\/2681\/products\/sunflower-greens-wm_700_a21f1224-ad75-455e-9ade-7879b7471e70.jpg?v=1540327573","variant_ids":[38494671112,38494671176,38494671240,208827351048]},"available":true,"name":"Sunflower - Black Oil (organic) - Microgreens Seeds - 50 lb","public_title":"50 lb","options":["50 lb"],"price":31451,"weight":23133,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":""}],"images":["\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2016\/2681\/products\/sunflower-greens-wm_700_a21f1224-ad75-455e-9ade-7879b7471e70.jpg?v=1540327573","\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2016\/2681\/products\/sun-flower-close-wm_700.jpg?v=1540327591","\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2016\/2681\/products\/whole-sunflower-seeds-up-close-wm_700_b1021c05-4c15-4353-b375-8e5f25a676fa.jpg?v=1540327610","\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2016\/2681\/products\/non-gmo-sprouting-seed_4532324f-807d-4673-b86b-0a7420a52a54.jpg?v=1540327620"],"featured_image":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2016\/2681\/products\/sunflower-greens-wm_700_a21f1224-ad75-455e-9ade-7879b7471e70.jpg?v=1540327573","options":["Size"],"content":"\u003cp\u003e8-12 days.
