Watercress – Growing Instructions
- Sow your seeds directly onto a moistened growing medium, which is 3-4cm deep.
- Lightly mist the seeds with water.
- Place the seeded tray into a second tray without drainage holes. This will allow you to bottom water the tray
- Cover with another tray on top to stop light getting in.
- Blackout for 4-5 days and gently mist when the soil is dry.
- Once the seeds are 1-2cm, they should be ready to be placed in a well-lit location.
- When watering the seedlings, keep using the bottom tray.
- Harvest between day 7-12 or when the seedlings are 5cm tall. Cut the stems above the soil line with a knife or scissors.
