Growing Directions:
Simply scatter your organic calabrese broccoli seeds across the grow medium and spray heavily to get seeds and grow medium adequately soaked. Cover with a microgreen grow tray to blackout the seeds so they can achieve their high germination. Remove the grow tray and expose the growing broccoli greens to light and watch them grow. Harvest your broccoli microgreen garden using a sharp blade or scissor to cut just above the medium line.
