🌱 What You’ll Need

• Broccoli Seeds – You can buy ours here
• Pot or container with drainage holes 
• Tray or saucer underneath (optional)
• Growing medium – soil or seed-raising mix
• Spray bottle or fine watering can
• Light source – outdoors is preferred but a sunny windowsill or LED grow light will work too.

🪴 How to Grow — Step by Step

1. Prepare the Tray

• Fill your pot with your growing medium, the pot should be minimum 3cm deep but no need to be more than 10cm.
• Smooth the surface without compacting it too much.

2. Sow Seeds

• Scatter broccoli seeds evenly over the surface.
• Lightly press them into the medium for good contact.
• Cover lightly with 1mm or less of soil.
• Mist the seeds gently with water.
• The medium should feel like a wrung-out sponge — damp, not soggy.

3. Place in Light

• Place your tray in a bright spot right away.
• Outdoors is preferred, close to your house. A bright windowsill can work. You can also use a grow light for 12–16 hours/day.

4. Water Daily

• Mist the surface once or twice a day to keep it evenly moist.

5. Harvest (Day 7–10)

• When your broccoli microgreens are ~5–7 cm tall and the leaves have opened, they’re ready!
• Use scissors to snip them just above the soil line.
• Rinse gently and pat dry before storing in the fridge.

🥗 Use & Storage

• Sprinkle on salads, tacos, soups, or avocado toast.
• Add to smoothies for a sulforaphane boost.
• Store dry in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 10 days.
