Growing dill microgreens is moderately easy. Like most microgreens, they can be cultivated on a thin substrate provided it does not become easily waterlogged. Sprinkle dill seeds evenly and at the recommended density and mist to keep the soil damp. Keep in a warm, humid environment and ensure the microgreens receive the correct amount of light. Germination takes around 4-5 days. Once the microgreens reach 20-45 centimetres tall, typically in 10-14 days, they’re ready to harvest. Selling dill microgreens presents a compelling opportunity. They align with health-conscious consumers’ preferences and their versatile use in diverse dishes caters to gourmet and health-focused markets. Freshness and local sourcing attract those valuing quality produce and growing dill microgreens can allow you to capitalise on the growing trend of microgreens and artisanal ingredients. Dill microgreens are nutrient-rich, offering vitamins like A and C that contribute to immunity and skin health. They provide essential minerals including iron, vital for blood health, and calcium for bones. Incorporating them into your diet can supply a range of vitamins, minerals, and potential health benefits, making them a valuable addition. Dill microgreens have an intense and aromatic flavour that mirrors the taste of mature dill herbs. Their profile is characterised by a combination of herbal, citrusy, and slightly sweet notes and this bold taste adds depth and complexity to dishes.
