Florida MicroGreens uses woven hemp
fiber mats for growing MicroGreens
in a hydroponic system
This 100% hemp product is made from fibers grown without the use of pesticides, herbicides, or synthetic fertilizers. These hemp mats are designed to transport water evenly throughout the entire medium while maintaining a perfect ratio of water and air for the development of healthy root systems. Consistent growing conditions allow for consistent production of young plants making these mats ideal for growing microgreens. Just moisten and let excess water drain. Sprinkle seeds to the desired density, then mist.
Here are some Frequently Asked Questions about our hemp.
What is Hemp?
How do you cut Hemp?
1020 TRAY CUTTING INSTRUCTIONS
- Cut into 36″ x 19.5″ Strips
- Divide those strips into 4 equal pieces each measuring 9″ x 19.5″

Using a straight edge and clamps ensures that your cuts are straight.
Note: this is a loose weave so there is stretch involved when unrolling, cutting, etc.
