    FULL SPECIFICATION TABLE

    General Specification

    Common Name Cilantro Split Microgreens (split seed)
    Botanical Name Coriandrum sativum
    Seed Type Conventional, untreated, non-GMO
    Stem/Leaf Color Deep green frilly cotyledons on sturdy pale-green stems; turns from yellow to vivid green within a day of light exposure.
    Flavor & Texture Bright, citrus-edged cilantro aroma; clean and sweeter than mature leaves with a crisp, juicy bite.
    Seed Count per 10g ≈2,800–3,200 pieces (≈280–320/g) — split seed.

    Cultivation Data

    Difficulty Medium (slower than brassicas; requires patience during germination, but split seed improves consistency).
    Preferred Medium Soil or coco coir; fine, flat surface for good seed-to-medium contact.
    Seeding Density (1020 tray) 35 g per 1020 tray (25×50 cm)
    Seeding Density (10x10 cm) 2.8 g per 10×10 cm
    Expected Yield ≈250–300 g per 1020 tray (approx. 7×–9× seed weight).
    Soaking No soaking required or recommended for split seed; soaking may encourage mold.
    Blackout Days 4–5 days (cilantro is a slower germinator; allow until most seedlings are visibly standing).
    Watering, pH & Temp Bottom watering preferred once seedlings are up; keep medium evenly moist but not waterlogged. pH 6.0–6.5. Temperature 18–22 °C. Ensure good airflow after germination to reduce mold risk.
    Sprouting Time 3–6 days (split seed speeds and evens germination; cooler temperatures slow emergence).
    Harvest Time 14–21 days at cotyledon stage; up to 21–28 days if growing to first true leaf.

    Health & Nutrition

    Vitamins Vitamins A (beta-carotene), C, K; folate; small amounts of B-group vitamins.
    Minerals Potassium, manganese, iron, calcium, phosphorus.
    Notable Compounds Linalool (a monoterpenoid terpene alcohol, the dominant essential-oil constituent), polyphenols (flavonoids including quercetin), carotenoids (lutein/zeaxanthin, beta-carotene).
    Health Benefits Supports immune function and antioxidant defence via vitamins C and K and polyphenols; carotenoid content (beta-carotene) supports eye health; carminative properties may aid digestive comfort; linalool has documented neuroprotective and anti-inflammatory properties in research literature.
    ABOUT

    Cilantro split microgreens are nature's two-for-one deal: each half-seed carries its own embryo, giving you denser, more uniform stands without doubling your seed order. At harvest the cotyledons are a vivid, deep green, and the moment you cut them the tray releases that unmistakable bright, citrusy-herbal scent that fills the room. Unlike fully grown cilantro, these microgreens deliver the same bold flavour with a noticeably sweeter, cleaner finish and none of the occasional soapy sharpness — laid over a fish taco or stirred into a fresh salsa verde, they elevate the whole plate instantly. Start a tray now and you will have restaurant-quality cilantro micro-herbs on your kitchen bench in under three weeks.

    GROWING INSTRUCTIONS
    1 Fill your tray with 3–4 cm of pre-moistened soil or coco coir, then press it gently flat with a second tray — an even surface means every seedling gets the same start, so your harvest will be gloriously uniform.
    2 Scatter the split seeds evenly at roughly 35 g per 25×50 cm tray (about 2.8 g per 10×10 cm section) — no soaking needed and no weight on top; just mist lightly with a spray bottle so the seeds settle into the medium.
    3 Slide the seeded tray into a dark cupboard or cover with a blackout dome for 4–5 days. Check daily: the cilantro will be slow to wake up at first, but around day three you will start to see tiny white roots threading down into the soil — a quietly exciting sign that things are moving.
    4 Once most seedlings are standing up and showing pale yellow cotyledons, bring the tray into indirect light or under a grow light for 12–16 hours per day. Within a day you will watch those yellow leaves flush to a deep, saturated green.
    5 Water from the bottom whenever the growing medium feels dry to the touch — pour water into the outer tray and let the roots drink at their own pace. Keep room temperature between 18–22 °C and ensure good airflow to prevent any humidity build-up.
    6 Watch for the characteristic frilly cilantro cotyledons to fully open and firm up — this usually happens between days 14 and 18. Give the tray a gentle sniff: that rush of fresh, citrusy coriander aroma is your best signal that harvest is close.
    7 Harvest with clean scissors just above the soil line when cotyledons are fully open and vibrant green. Rinse gently, shake dry and use immediately — or refrigerate in a breathable container for up to 5–7 days. Add to dishes at the very last moment to protect their delicate texture and scent.
