We seek out the highest quality seeds for sprouting broccoli or broccoli microgreens.
Expect our broccoli seeds to produce healthy broccoli sprouts/microgreens in 3-10 days.
Sprouting:
Soak seeds in water (twice the height of the seeds) in a bowl overnight. About 2 tables spoons should make about 1 mason jar’s worth for a weeks worth of broccoli sprouts.
Drain seeds in a fine strainer or cheese cloth in the morning and then rinse seeds with fresh water and leave in the strainer. Cover with a moist paper towel or cloth.
Rinse seeds in fresh water again in the evening if they are dry.
Rinse once or twice a day for about 2-3 days until sprout is ready to eat.
Keep in jar/container in the refrigerator for 5-7 days. Store in paper towel to reduce moisture.
