Broccoli seeds are sprouted in the same way as Alfalfa, and also in soil in flats or the garden. Pay careful attention to drain thoroughly when preparing in jars as they mold easily. Broccoli seed sprouts have attractive, lobed leaves, and a very pleasant flavor. They are an excellent addition to your sprouting mix.

Directions for Sprouting
Place in a roomy container such as a quart (using up to 1 teaspoon of seed) or gallon jar (up to 3 tablespoons of seed). Soak in warm water 4 to 6 hours using enough water to keep seeds covered with water. Cover with a loose woven fabric, nylon stocking, or mesh secured down by elastic or a rubber band. Rinse and thoroughly drain 2-3 times daily until sprouts are of desired length. Sprouting them in indirect sunlight will help them develop green leaves. Swish out seed caps in a basin of water if desired.
