This step-by-step online course gives you everything you need in one organized system, taught by growers who’ve spent years helping thousands of people succeed with microgreens. Last reviewed and updated April 8, 2026.

Created by On The Grow (147,000+ YouTube subscribers), this course takes all the trial-and-error lessons learned from years of real-world growing and teaching experience and packages them into a clear, complete learning path. No guessing, no outdated advice, no digging through hundreds of random videos trying to figure out what actually works.

“This is hands-down the most informational, comprehensive, and easy-to-follow course I have ever taken related to growing plants and farming. Thanks to their course, I have been able to launch my own small-scale microgreens business that allows me to sell my greens directly at my farm stand. I 10/10 recommend it!” Alexandra Fasulo (@houseofgreensaratoga)

The YouTube Problem (And Why This Course Exists)

Our free YouTube content has helped thousands of growers get started, but here’s the reality: it’s scattered across hundreds of videos, some information is outdated, and finding the right answer to your specific question can take hours. Students tell us this course saves them hundreds of hours they would have spent hunting for answers.

This course centralizes everything into a logical progression with exclusive content you won’t find on YouTube, all reviewed and updated as of April 2026 with our latest growing methods, business information, and techniques. If you’ve been following us on YouTube and want the complete system instead of bits and pieces, this is it.

Alexandra F. (@houseofgreensaratoga): “This is hands-down the most informational, comprehensive, and easy-to-follow course I have ever taken related to growing plants and farming. I am not exaggerating when I say CJ and Mandi know quite literally everything there is to know about microgreens farming. Thanks to their course, I have been able to launch my own small-scale microgreens business that allows me to sell my greens to consumers directly at my farm stand. Bravo to both of them on creating such a robust, information-packed masterclass. I 10/10 recommend it!”

It helped me to be able to follow your process of growing greens and gave me the confidence to continue forward with my own business. For me, seeing that you started growing out of your trailer inspired me and I knew I could grow out of my home. I continue to follow you and look forward to your content regularly.
