Germinating Cilantro Microgreens: Part 1 Planting

In the first video of this lesson, I will show you how I plant cilantro seeds and start the weighted blackout method. If you are not sure what the Weighted Blackout Method is be sure to go to the article linked below the video player and register for the Microgreen Growing Course that will show you the ins and outs of the method.

Whether you use split or whole seeds the process is the same. The same amount of seed, the same soaking procedure, and the seeds are placed on the soil in the same way.
