Growing Directions:
Cabbage microgreens seeds are easy to grow quickly in either soil or hydroponic mediums. If you are growing micro cabbage in soil, tamp and moisten soil before spreading your microgreens seeds across its surface. You may want to cover seeds with a thin layer of soil. This will keep the seeds moist for longer. Allowing the seeds to germinate on the surface is fine too! Keep dark with the black out dome for the first 3 days then flip the lid on day 4 and 5 to stress and strengthen the crop. Prefers a lower light condition, once the blackout dome is removed.
