I tried the cabbage sprouting seeds

Well, we are now in April. I've been sprouting my usual stuff and I added a bit of cabbage to them. I say a bit, because the first day I added a lot, and WOW, the hot taste was too much.

So now I know to add just a half teaspoon to my soaking seeds. I use a teaspoon of all the other microgreen seeds, like alfalfa, fenugreek, broccoli, radish.

the blend is awesome.

Oh, I found a great way to save time, when taking out the seeds to soak. I make little packages in small ziplock bags. Very small ones. I take whatever seeds I wish, put them all together in the little bags, put a twist tie, and made about 10 of them.

So whenever I wish to start a new batch, I don't have to take out the 5 lb can of this and the 5 lb can of that, and have all these cans of seeds on my counter tops. All the work was done, and I just grab a little bag, pour into the mason jar, add some water, rinse and drain, then fill the water to the half way mark, soak over night and then I start sprouting.

This is a great tip, believe me.

Take care, Melody
