Rainbow Heirloom Seed Co. Sulforaphane MICROGREEN Seed Mix - Non-GMO, High-Germination, Nutrient-Rich Microgreens for Home Gardeners

DogLover: I'm new to sprouting at home but got sick of paying $4.79 at the grocery store for a small portion. Bought mason jar sprouting kit and watched videos to sterilize and then grow properly. Used vinegar/water mix for 15 min's and then rinsed several times. Turned the mason jars tilted on their little stand with the dark cover over the jar. Rinsed two times per day. Sprouts within 2 days. Removed cover on 4th day and they were in the frig by day 6 (in an airtight snapware glass container) with full sprout growth ready for smoothies, salads and sandwiches.

Jeffrey ThomasJeffrey Thomas: This is a very nice, clean mix of microgreens. It's a 'sulforaphane' mix, meaning that it's been blended to be high in a nutrient called glucoraphanin, which when digested by the human body, produces sulforaphane. For background, sulforaphane is a compound in many vegetables (particularly cruciferous vegetables like broccoli, cauliflower, brussels sprouts, cabbage, etc. plus others such as kale) that is being actively studied, and shows promise as an anti-cancer compound, helps with blood sugar control, nerve protection from aging, and is touted as an anti-inflammatory. That's a lot of potential benefits.

So, this is a 1lb bag, which will last a very long time, even if you're growing enough for several people. I grow 10"x10" greenhouse flats as pictured, and it takes a week to ten days to harvest, with each flat lasting me for about a week with me eating a salad made from them at lunch. I just take a handful of these, throw them in a bowl, top with some protein of some kind, add some additional flavors like some olives, some feta or blue cheese, and have a nice, filling meal.

I did the math (and unfortunately can't find my notes), but if my memory serves me...

LostClown: I do not ove plant with this product. Seems like every seed pops like it should. Price is a bit high. I wish I could buy in 20# bags at minimum. 5 gallon bucket would even be better.
