Cauliflower microgreens might move into one of my recommended beginner microgreens. They are easy to grow and have a mild broccoli flavor with a peppery bite.

They’re crisp and juicy, making them a great addition to any microgreen salad or garnish.

The leaves are a glossy dark green. They have a thin whitish stem with light shades of purple.

Cauliflower microgreens grow very uniformly, making an attractive tray with erect dark green plants with a violet undertone.

Like most brassicas, Cauliflower microgreens are a favorite microgreen because of their health benefits; they’re an excellent source of sulforaphane and many other vitamins and minerals.

They are an excellent choice as a base for any microgreens salad or just added to salads. Because of their crisp texture, they’re also a tremendous raw topping for sandwiches or burgers.

1010 Tray: 8.0 grams

1020 Tray: 16.0 grams

All volumetric measurements are level, not heaping spoons.

These are my recommended seeding densities to produce a great-looking tray of Cauliflower microgreens. 

I like to allow microgreen leaves to develop to a larger size as they provide more nutrition & flavor than producing smaller leaves and stems.

Microgreen density depends on many environmental factors and seed germination percentages.

You may prefer to modify the seeding density, but my seeding densities are a great starting point, if nothing else.
