These are good sprouts, and this bag will probably last me a year. I keep them in the freezer.

These seeds sprouted quickly and easily. I used them in salads, in cole slaw and on sandwiches. They are spicy and refreshing.

These sprouts were a great addition on my salads, sandwiches, and wraps! It takes them about 4-5 days to be ready in my sprouter. The bag it comes in is a very good size; it would be a while before I will need to get some more! I can't really tell which sprouts are actually the broccoli, alfalfa, clover, or radish since they're all mixed but nevertheless, all tasty.

Soaked seeds for about 8hrs. Most of the seeds sprouted in 3 days, but some of them remained hard. Since it's a mixture and I never bought seeds before, I don't know which ones didn't sprout. They were tiny, round, and black and kind of like biting little rocks. The ones that sprouted tasted great. Will try again and maybe soak longer.

This one pound package of seeds will last me a few years. I had it shipped to central Minnesota in February. Amazing the seeds did not freeze and a small sprinkle in a quart mason jar produced a full jar in 7 days. Average growing temp was 62 F. Rinsed twice a day forgot two times in the 7 day gestation, but no mold growth.

Really great mixture of sprouts. Easy to grow and last a very long time in the fridge, after you are finished with the growing process. Love these!

Hmm. I thought I already did a review on this, but I guess I didn't.

I'm very much the novice at sprouting so this is the first one I've tried and I really like the combination.

It has the right sweet/hot spicy kick to it and I find myself putting it on almost everything.

I sprout using filtered, ionized water and have had great success, I think, so no complaints there as I think using tap water, which even plants and animals don't want, surely wouldn't do well for sprouts. Just my opinion.

Happy.

I had to throw these sprouting seeds away, they are so full of sharp and bitter tastes, they ruined my green smoothies. YUCK

I am really happy with the sprouting seed mix I received from the sprout house. The seed is very fresh. I had near 100% germination, and this blend; brocoli, radish clover, is really nice. The radish gives it a little bit of tang, the broccoli a bit more body. The fresh sprouts are so much better than what you get in the market! We have been eating them out of the jar. (I have mine sprouting in a jar, with a sprouting lid :Sprouting Strainer Lid This is an economical way to try sprouting, if you don't already have a sprouter. For those who do, I will just recommend this blend. The flavors, size, germination time compliment each other & work nicely together. It is also a very good value. Broccoli seed & sprouts are generally more expensive. I like that this seller is honest and not representing this as broccli sprout (disguising the blend) or overcharging for it. For those who generally buy sprouts and are considering growing them: I started with the recommended 2 tablespoons. This filled a quart jar in a few days, producing about what you get in a 4 oz bag at the supermarket. Here (in Hawaii) that bag costs around $3. I do not know exactly how many tablespoons you get from a pound of seed, but judging by what I have used, I am guessing at least 40. That means that buying this many sprouts at the market would have cost me at least $60, and would not have been as fresh, nutricious, crisp or flavorful.
So far none of ours has made it to the fridge, and I am going to try to keep it that way. (they start losing sugars, nutrician and flavor as soon as you refrigerate). Given that this is the first batch we may well get through them without putting them away. I think for the next batch i will just sprout 1 tablespoon, and if I want mo9re, start another batch a couple of days later. I really want to have them fresh and not out of the refrigerator (that is why I am sprouting to begin with).
It is very humdid here, so to keep them fresh I am going to pack in a jar with some silica gel packs. keeping the seed in the refigerator might not be a bad idea (though it is humid in there too and may reduce germinhation). the freezer; not such a good idea. i suspect that would severely reduce germination, if not kill the seed (depending on the temp of your freezer). Seed keeps well if it is dry & out of direct light.
the instructions provided are good enough to get a novice going in no time (and honestly, you can grow them with just a jar, cheesecloth and a rubber band). sprouting is really easy, and the sprout house makes it all the more so. I wrote this review when I came back to see who I had gotten the seed from, as I want to see what else they have; a happy customer coming back for more.

I am appending my review to note that I bought my seed from the sprout house, fulfilled by Amazon and can not attest to either the price or quality of seed sold by other marketplace seelers. That doesn't mean it is not good seed or a good price, just not what I purchased or reviewed.

Now that I have experience sprouting seeds, I'm developing a real taste for truly fresh grown-in-the-home food. I also grow fresh food in my garden, but the sprouted seeds only need a little rinse and can be eaten right from the sprouter. How healthy is that? They are crunchy and tasty on sandwiches or dropped into soup. The radish sprouts have a little kick which I appreciate, and the others are all tasty as well. They grow remarkably fast and sprouting is very easy.
