Spookily good greens 🎃

The Grow-Grow Nut is a real upcycled coconut shell from Vietnam. It gets its hairdo from microgreens grown from 100% certified organic seeds, with compressed coco soil bricks as the soil.

Microgreens are young and incredibly tasty seedlings. You could also call them a miniature version of vegetables.

Here's how it works: a seed develops into a seedling, which turns into a sprout. After just a few days, you have what's called a microgreen.

Compared with fully grown vegetables, it contains far more vitamins and nutrients. A red cabbage microgreen, for example, has 260 times as much beta-carotene, 6 times as much vitamin C and 40 times as much vitamin E per gram as fully grown red cabbage.

It really is child's play: let the coco soil swell with a little water inside the coconut, press it down, spread the seeds on top and put it on the windowsill. Check the moisture every day and – hey presto – after just 6–8 days you can enjoy your tasty microgreens!

Microgreens taste great on bread or in salads and make a delicious topping for almost any dish. Our tip: put the fully grown Grow-Grow Nut straight on the table for a shared lunch or dinner.
