{"product_id":"mint-microgreen-seeds","title":"Mint Microgreen Seeds","description":"\u003ch2\u003eMint Microgreen Seeds for Fresh, Aromatic Micro Herbs\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMint Microgreen Seeds\u003c\/strong\u003e produce delicate green shoots with a fresh, cooling mint aroma and concentrated herbal flavour. Grown into the first true-leaf stage, micro mint develops recognisable serrated foliage and makes an attractive specialty garnish for both sweet and savoury dishes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eMint is a slower specialty microgreen rather than a fast crop such as broccoli or radish. Its exceptionally fine seeds are surface-sown at a very low density and require light during germination. Allow approximately \u003cstrong\u003e18–30 days from sowing to harvest\u003c\/strong\u003e, depending on germination speed, temperature, light and preferred harvest stage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFresh, Cooling Mint Flavour\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eMint microgreens have a clean, refreshing flavour with cooling, sweet and lightly herbal notes. Their small size allows a relatively small amount to provide noticeable fresh mint character without the larger leaves of mature plants.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eUse freshly harvested micro mint with fruit, desserts, yoghurt and salads, or as a fresh garnish for cold drinks, iced tea, cakes and plated dishes. It can also complement sauces, vegetables and savoury meals where a light fresh mint flavour is wanted.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTiny Seeds for Specialty Microgreen Growing\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eMint seed is exceptionally fine, with approximately 10,000–15,000 seeds per gram, so only a small quantity is required for a standard tray. Sow the seed thinly over a fine, consistently moist growing medium such as \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/ozsprout.com.au\/products\/coco-fibre-growing-medium\"\u003eCoco Fibre Growing Medium\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe seed should remain on or very close to the surface because light supports germination. Unlike many common microgreens, mint should \u003cstrong\u003enot\u003c\/strong\u003e be placed beneath an opaque blackout cover or weighted tray.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eLight During Germination\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eA clear humidity dome can help slow surface drying while still allowing light to reach the seed. Germination is naturally gradual, so maintain consistent moisture without flooding the surface and allow sufficient time for seedlings to emerge.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOnce established, provide bright light, gentle airflow and bottom watering. Allowing the first serrated true leaves to develop gives the crop its characteristic mint appearance and stronger aroma.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eGrow Mint Beyond the Microgreen Stage\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe same viable seed can also be grown beyond the microgreen stage into mature mint plants. For mature herb growing rather than dense microgreen production, see our \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/ozsprout.com.au\/products\/mint-herb-seeds\"\u003eMint Herb Seeds\u003c\/a\u003e growing information.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eMint is particularly well suited to containers because established plants can spread vigorously. Mature foliage can be harvested repeatedly for culinary use.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ozsprout","offers":[{"title":"1g","offer_id":42801967268083,"sku":"MINTSEEDS-1G","price":6.9,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"5g","offer_id":42801967300851,"sku":"MINTSEEDS-5G","price":25.9,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"10g","offer_id":42801967333619,"sku":"MINTSEEDS-10G","price":48.9,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"20g","offer_id":42801967366387,"sku":"MINTSEEDS-20G","price":90.9,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"50g","offer_id":42801967399155,"sku":"MINTSEEDS-50G","price":200.9,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"100g","offer_id":42801967431923,"sku":"MINTSEEDS-100G","price":360.9,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"250g","offer_id":42801967464691,"sku":"MINTSEEDS-250G","price":990.9,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"500g","offer_id":42801967497459,"sku":"MINTSEEDS-500G","price":1600.9,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0646\/1446\/5779\/files\/mint-microgreen-seeds.webp?v=1759256059","url":"https:\/\/ozsprout.com.au\/products\/mint-microgreen-seeds","provider":"OzSprout","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
