CERTIFIED ORGANIC! We found red radish organic sprouting seeds the fastest to sprout. Red radish sprouts have quite a bit of the heat associated with garden radishes, so they're not for the faint of heart. First comes the intense flavour, and then a wave of powerful heat, almost like wasabi. Red Radish sprouts are highly nutritious and an excellent source of fibre, vitamin C, and folate. They are packed with antioxidants, and very easily digestible, so your body can take advantage of the whole nutrient package without burning a lot of calories. Radish sprouts tend to develop very fine micro-roots that can look fuzzy - don't confuse this natural growth as mold or mildew.
