Cilantro Microgreen Seeds

Cilantro microgreens bring the bold, bright flavor of fresh cilantro in a concentrated, tender form—ideal for topping tacos, pho, grain bowls, and any dish that calls for a fresh herbal finish. Unlike mature cilantro, which can be slow and finicky to grow, cilantro microgreens are faster, more forgiving, and deliver that distinctive flavor at its most vibrant and aromatic. A must-have for anyone who loves cilantro and wants it available year-round.

Grow in trays using coconut coir—soak seeds overnight before planting to soften the seed hull and speed germination. Harvest when the first true leaves begin to emerge for the best flavor concentration.

Soak & sprout FAQ

Should I soak these cilantro seeds?
Yes. Seattle Seed Company recommends pre-soaking for 8–12 hours before planting in trays using coconut coir. Soaking softens the seed hull and helps speed germination.

How should I drain the seeds and position them on the growing medium?
The supplier’s published instructions specify coconut coir but do not give drainage or seed-to-medium contact directions. Ask Seattle Seed Company for those details before changing your growing method.

How do I avoid mold?
The supplier’s published instructions do not include a mold-prevention procedure. Contact Seattle Seed Company for guidance on drainage, moisture and airflow, or if you notice suspected mold.

What if germination stalls?
The supplier lists germination at 3–5 days after an overnight soak. If seeds have not sprouted beyond that window, contact Seattle Seed Company for troubleshooting rather than extending the soak or trying unverified treatments.
