Red Amaranth Seeds, Grains, 2g

Thank you for viewing.
These are Red Amaranth seeds.

No pesticides, herbicides, or chemical fertilizers were used.
Animal-based compost was not used.
The plants were grown in a field where fallen leaves were added in winter.

○ Red Amaranth (Red Amaranthus)
Seeds were sown last spring.
Many red flowers bloomed from one Red Amaranth plant,
and it produced many seeds.
It is said that about 100,000 seeds can be harvested from one plant.
The seeds are reddish-black in color.
The leaves are red or green.
These are self-collected seeds and not of a specific variety.
There is a possibility of cross-pollination.

How to use:
- Young leaves (baby leaves) can be eaten like salad greens.
- Admire the flowers.
- Use the seeds as a grain, etc.

The red pigment betacyanin has antioxidant properties and is said to be good for health.

The product contains small amaranth husks that could not be fully threshed.
It was very difficult to separate only the seeds.
We apologize for this.
There is no problem if you sow them together.

Cultivation location: Nagano Prefecture
Quantity: Approximately 2g
Includes husk weight.
As the seeds are very small, we cannot tell you the exact number of seeds, but looking at commercially sold amaranth seeds,
usually 1 gram of seeds alone contains about 800 to 1500 seeds.
They are the smallest among grains.

Sowing period: Optimal temperature is 15°C or higher.
Prefers sunlight.
The cotyledons are red, so they are easy to identify when they germinate.

We cannot guarantee that all seeds will germinate, so please understand.
They were grown in a natural way.
The appearance of sprouts and growth is lovely.
They were grown without fertilizer or watering,
so we found them easy to grow.
We believe everyone can enjoy cultivating them.

When spaced widely, they grow tall with large flowers,
and when spaced closely, they grow short with small flowers.
