Getting microgreens started is easy and you’ll just need a few things: a flat growing tray, dome cover, seed starting soil, your chosen seeds, and a few more key pieces. I have an MBA in business and I have spent 25 years watching business trends and movements.

Microgreens : For Growers and Consumers
Broccoli
Broccoli microgreens well if you have ever met me then you know that I am all about broccoli microgreens. Why? Well, I wish I had a unique case but refuse to watch friends die from STUPID Cancer. I may not be a Dr. so please listen to yours, there is a product it is simple, it grows and it kicks cancers butt according to several studies I have read. My main goal in life is just to help those who want to be more healthy know the truth and eat the broccoli.
There is robust epidemiological evidence for the beneficial effects of broccoli consumption on health, many of them clearly mediated by the isothiocyanate sulforaphane. So is it the dose or the source that matters most?
Isothiocyanates are some of the most important plant compounds you can get in your diet. This video made by Dr. Rhonda Patrick is the most comprehensive case for them that has ever been made.
