If you’ve never grown microgreens before, broccoli is the perfect place to start - especially in winter when outdoor gardening slows down. They’re quick, clean, and can be harvested in as little as 7–10 days.
What You’ll Need
- High-quality Broccoli seeds
- Growing medium: coconut coir, hemp mat or fine soil
- Shallow tray with drainage holes
- Spray bottle or watering can
- Natural light or grow light
Step-by-Step Guide
- Prepare your tray: Fill with moistened growing medium.
- Sow seeds evenly across the surface.
- Cover to block out light and retain humidity.
- Wait 2–3 days for germination, then move to a well-lit spot.
- Water gently, ideally from the bottom to avoid mould.
- Harvest when the first true leaves appear - around day 10.
Tips for Success
- Keep the environment warm but not too humid.
- Ensure good airflow to prevent mould.
- Avoid overwatering - less is more.
Conclusion
It’s that easy! No garden space required - just a sunny windowsill and a bit of daily care.
