Growing green cabbage microgreens is moderately easy. They should be sown evenly and at the recommended density on a well-draining growing medium. Water gently and keep the substrate consistently moist. Keep them in a climate controlled environment with the suggested amount of light per day. Germination occurs in about 4-7 days. Once they reach 5-15 centimetres, usually in 7-14 days, they’re ready to harvest. Green cabbage microgreens present a lucrative market opportunity and are often sold at a premium due to their concentrated flavours and nutritional value. Selling locally grown produce fosters community ties and boosts the local economy. As a low-maintenance crop, it’s ideal for novice growers and growing and selling green cabbage aligns with health, sustainability, and economic goals. Green cabbage microgreens are nutrient-dense, containing vitamins (C, K) that support immune function and bone health. They offer essential minerals like calcium, vital for bone strength, and folate, important for cellular processes. These microgreens also provide dietary fibre, aiding digestion and gut health. Additionally, they contain antioxidants and phytonutrients, potentially contributing to overall well-being. Green cabbage microgreens have a mild and delicate flavour that’s reminiscent of mature cabbage, but more subtle. Their taste is slightly sweet and earthy, with a hint of brassica essence.
