The five-phase cycle, time-lapsed

Press play and compress a 12-day broccoli grow into 12 seconds. Every microgreen moves through the same five phases — soak (if needed), germination, blackout, light, harvest — and watching the whole arc at once is the fastest way to build intuition for what's happening inside your tray.
