• Spray daily (after the 3 days of germination period and the top mat has been removed) to apply moisture to the seeds and coco peat mix. Don't overdo it or seeds will rot.

Broccoli microgreens seeds available. Full-grown broccoli is seen as a super food, full of minerals, vitamin C and A, and high in Iron. Broccoli microgreens have just as many nutrients as their full-sized counterparts, if not more. Broccoli microgreens contain a compound called sulforaphane which as effects on cancer, aging, mortality, heart disease, brain, and behaviour, and more. Sulforaphane is heat-sensitive, so you’ll want to avoid cooking your broccoli microgreens and opt to eat them raw instead.

Other microgreen seeds available from Aquaponics WA throughout the year, subject to availability.
