Free Tray Specific Microgreen Seeding Guide - PDF

Growing in sprouting trays, 7x14 trays, or different depth 10x20 trays and need adjusted seeding rates? This free guide gives you specific seed amounts and growing parameters for multiple tray sizes—because a sprouting tray needs different seeding than a 1020 tray.

What's Inside

Seeding Rates for Multiple Tray Types:

• 1" deep 1020 trays
• 2" deep 1020 trays
• Large Sprouting Trays
• Deep Sprouting Trays
• 7x14 OTG Tray Kit trays
• Small Sprouting Trays

For Each Tray Size, You'll Find:

Popular Crop Coverage:

• Sunflower microgreens
• Pea shoots
• Brassicas (broccoli, kale, cabbage, etc.)
• Beets & Swiss chard
• Cilantro
• Mustard
• Melon
• Basil
• Small crops like amaranth

Growing Parameters:

• Seed amounts adjusted for each tray size
• Weight and blackout times per variety
• Soak vs. no-soak guidance with specific soak times
• Average grow times from our experience
• Average harvest weights per tray size
• Direct YouTube links to video tutorials (when available for that tray size and crop)
• Quick-links to additional microgreen resources

Why Tray Size Matters

A sprouting tray has different dimensions and depth than a 1020 tray, which means different seeding rates. Using 1020 seeding rates in a sprouting tray leads to overcrowding or sparse coverage. This guide gives you tray-specific seeding amounts so you get proper coverage every time.

Who This Guide Helps

• Sprouting tray users (Large, Deep, or Small sizes)
• 7x14 tray kit owners needing proper seeding rates for that specific size
• Anyone using different depth 1020 trays (1" vs 2" makes a difference)
• Growers scaling up or down from standard 10x20 trays
• People tired of adjusting seeding rates through trial and error
• This PDF is currently only available in English.
