Best books to learn Microgreens growing, in order
Microgreens compress a whole growing season into ten days, so small errors — bad seed density, weak light, overwatering — show up as mold or leggy trays almost immediately. Learn the core variables first (seeds, media, light, moisture), then the crop-by-crop timing and harvest technique, then scaling up to production and even selling to restaurants. Each cycle you read ahead of saves you a wasted tray.
