Absolutely! Many who never grew anything before have become real plant fans with ingarden.

You don't need to water them or provide sunlight – simply insert the pads, fill with water, and turn on the light. That's all it takes.

Microgreens and sprouts are often confused – but they are quite different:

Sprouts are seedlings that are eaten immediately after sprouting – without roots and without sunlight. They grow in a humid environment (e.g., in a sprouting jar) and must be rinsed regularly, as they are susceptible to bacteria and mold.

Microgreens, on the other hand, are small young plants with roots and true leaves. They grow under light for several days, produce chlorophyll, and can therefore develop more nutrients, fiber, and bioactive plant compounds.

They are not only more intense in taste, but also safer to grow – without constant rinsing, without soil, without risk.

And the best part: you can simply harvest them fresh and enjoy them raw – as a topping for salads, pasta or your favorite bread.

Yes – and in some cases even more!

Independent studies confirm that microgreens contain up to 40 times higher concentrations of vitamins, minerals and bioactive plant compounds compared to mature vegetable plants (e.g. Weber et al., 2017 ; Xiao et al., 2012 ; Johnson et al., 2021 ).

Our own laboratory tests show:
Some varieties contain up to 300 times more nutrients – naturally concentrated in the first days of growth.

🌿 Why?
In this early phase, the plant concentrates all its strength and nutrients into the small cotyledons – for maximum effect and taste.

👉 You can find the exact values ​​in our nutrient table on the website.

The ingarden is compactly designed for any kitchen:

It measures 20 cm high, 39 cm long and 15 cm wide , and weighs only 3.5 kg . This makes it stable yet easy to handle or move.

Yes – 100%.

Our microgreens come from controlled organic cultivation and are free from genetic engineering, pesticides and herbicides .

We work exclusively with certified partner companies that are rigorously inspected – so you can be sure that only what is truly good for your body grows in your home.

And: Every batch of seeds is tested in the laboratory for germination rate, purity and safety.

🌱 Natural. Pure. Controlled.

Our seeds come from the Italian region of Emilia-Romagna and the Netherlands – from certified organic farms that ensure the highest quality and purity.

Each batch is tested in the lab: for germination rate, microbial safety, and integrity – completely without artificial fertilizers or pesticides. This way, you can be sure that only the best grows in your garden.

ingarden uses a particularly energy-efficient LED light (13.5 watts), optimized for microgreens.

One growth cycle (7 days, 12 hours/day) consumes only about 1.1 kWh – this corresponds to about 39 cents per harvest (as of 2022 electricity prices).

Yes – and in particularly high concentrations.

Microgreens such as arugula, mustard, kale or radishes contain significantly more antioxidants than their mature plants – this has been shown by several independent studies (e.g. Xiao et al., 2012 & Journal of Functional Foods, 2017).

✨ Why is this important?

Antioxidants protect your cells from oxidative stress – the daily damage caused by free radicals. They support cell regeneration, strengthen the immune system, and contribute to overall health.

And the best part: Microgreens not only contain these substances in abundance – they are also particularly bioavailable , meaning they are easily absorbed by the body.

🌿 Naturally strong. Straight from your kitchen.
