Microgreens vs sprouts

Sprouts are germinated seeds grown in water and eaten whole — seed, root, and shoot. They are typically ready in a few days and stay pale because they grow without soil or much light.

Microgreens are grown in a medium, given light, and harvested above the soil line once leaves have formed. The flavour is more developed: nutty sunflower, sweet pea shoots, peppery radish.

SPRILO only grows microgreens, not sprouts. Every pack is cut from trays in our indoor setup and packed for city delivery.
