Agar-agar is an extract of seaweed that after heating is in the form of vegetable gelatine.

The micro-vegetables are the first leaves of vegetables, which are harvested very early, have an intense taste, are quite healthy and have a high concentration of vitamins and minerals beneficial to health.

The agar is used to replace the substrate or soil and simply add 2 grams of agar with half a liter of water and heat until boiling. After cooling it is to spread the seeds and wait 10-15 days to be able to harvest the microverduras. The agar will "feed" the vegetables, being a simple way to grow your own vegetables so that they can accompany the meals.

Contents:
A recycled wine bottle, instructions, 3 packages of agar-agar and 1 packet of organic seeds.


  1. Cut the bag, remove the agar-agar and the seeds packet.
  2. Open a package of agar-agar (2 grams) and put in a pan with half liter water. Place the pan on the stove and remove it when it starts to boil.
  3. Move the boiled water into the bag or other recipient. After one hour the agar will solidify as a gel.
  4. After that time, open the package and put the seeds (equivalent to a teaspoon of tea) on top of agar-agar.
  5. Place in a dark place for 3 days.
  6. When the seeds start to germinate (become yellowish), put the bag in a place with plenty of natural light but no direct sun.
