Project Micro Green

Micro Greens are smaller versions of larger plants that provide exceptional nutritional value (often 10 x their larger counterparts). There are literally hundreds of varieties of micro greens that can be used in salads, in flavoring like spices, in baked items to boost the nutritional value, in main dishes, etc. They go from seed to harvest in one to two weeks depending on the variety.

With the system we developed, it takes you about five hours to set up the indoor tent with the lights and about 3 – 5 hours per week to set the seeds, move the trays, and maintain the system. We have designed this so it’s very simple to harvest and transport the micro greens to consumers – it requires no tedious trimming or packaging.

We use a small four foot wide by three foot deep by six foot high grow tent to ensure the micro greens stay disease and bug free and the environment is optimized for quickly producing nutritious micro greens. We keep the tent indoors and use a ventilation vent to insure the temperature stays at a constant 75 degrees F, and 50% humidity. Keeping the tent indoors insures you have a steady supply of micro greens throughout the year.

You can put it anywhere in your home that is climatically controlled (essentially wherever you would be most comfortable living). The system is totally self contained with the vertical hydroponic application and includes a 15 gallon tank with water and organic nutrients – you do not need to be close to a water source.

Consumers at Farmers Markets, in grocery stores, through community supported agriculture consortiums, restaurants, schools, and corporate food services. The way this system works, the micro greens are delivered in a way that extends their shelf life for the consumer and they get fresher greens for longer with less effort for you.

We have designed this program with easy to follow instructions so you can acquire the components in an hour and set this up in less than a day with minimal tools or skills. It takes less than ten days to grow many of the varieties of most popular micro greens we suggest in the course. You can be using, sharing or selling your micro green crop in under two weeks from the time you set up your system.

Since this is a hydroponic application in a self contained tent and we use a shallow dish of a sterile growing medium, it is a very clean gardening application. There is no weeding, no digging in the dirt, no getting dirty involved with this.

We offer a 100% Learning Guarantee. If after successfully completing all the course requirements to the satisfaction of your online instructor you feel you can’t use what you have learned, we will refund your money.

We provide very detailed outlines of what is involved with our program; therefore, once someone has commenced our program, we cannot give a refund. If after 48 hours of registration you decide this class is not for you, you can request a cancellation and a full refund will be processed if you have not accessed the materials. If you have accessed the proprietary materials, and you wish to cancel within 48 hours, we will be happy to apply the funds you paid to another Cheetah Learning course.
