Microgreens & Baby Leaf Production: Year-round Australia-wide
Tropics: March to August
Subtropics: February to September
Mild climates: February to October
Cold climates: September to April
Planting / Sowing
For baby leaf production, sow seed densely in trays, boxes or garden beds and harvest leaves when they reach 8–15 cm tall. For mature roots, sow seed directly into prepared soil 10–15 mm deep and thin seedlings to 10 cm apart. Beetroot performs best when direct sown and prefers not to have its roots disturbed.
Grow in full sun to partial shade in fertile, well-drained soil enriched with compost. Keep soil consistently moist for rapid growth and good root development. Harvest roots from approximately 52–65 days after sowing, or earlier as tender baby beets.
Baby Leaf and Microgreens offer a simple and nutritious way to add fresh homegrown greens, vitamins and minerals to your daily diet.

Borago officinalis
An attractive and highly useful annual growing to approximately 90cm in height. Borage produces masses of striking blue star-shaped flowers that are highly attractive to bees and other beneficial insects, making it one of the best pollinator plants for the productive garden. Traditionally grown as a companion plant for strawberries, it is valued for attracting pollinators and supporting overall garden diversity.
The young leaves and flowers are edible and can be added to salads, desserts and drinks or used as colourful garnishes. Borage has a long history of traditional use and was once said to "gladden the heart". The plant is also known for concentrating potassium and contributes valuable organic matter when incorporated into the garden.

Daucus carota subsp. sativus
All Seasons is a reliable Australian favourite and a particularly popular Carrot variety in Queensland and New South Wales. Producing smooth, well-shaped orange roots approximately 20 cm long, it is valued for its adaptability, good flavour and resistance to virus disease.
The crisp, sweet roots are excellent eaten fresh, grated into salads, roasted, steamed, juiced or added to soups, stews and other cooked dishes. Young thinnings can be harvested and eaten as baby carrots rather than wasted.
Carrots are naturally rich in beta-carotene, which the body converts to vitamin A, as well as providing fibre and a range of other carotenoids and nutrients. Carrots also have a long history of cultivation and medicinal use, with their ancestors originating across Central and Western Asia before becoming an important vegetable crop throughout Europe and eventually the world.
All Seasons performs well across a broad planting window and is particularly useful in warmer Australian climates. For the straightest, best-shaped roots, grow in deeply cultivated, loose, friable soil free from stones and fresh manure.
Seed count: approximately 600–900 seeds/g
Approximately 300 seeds per packet
When to Plant (Australia)
Tropics: Autumn to winter
Subtropics: Most of the year, with best results autumn to spring
Mild climates: Spring to autumn
Cold climates: Spring to early autumn, avoiding periods of heavy frost
Planting / Sowing
Sow directly where plants are to grow, approximately 5–10 mm deep. Carrots dislike transplanting. Keep the surface consistently moist until germination; covering the seed bed with hessian or similar material can help retain moisture, but remove it promptly once seedlings begin to emerge so they receive adequate light.
Thin seedlings to approximately 2–5 cm apart, using the young thinnings as baby carrots. Maintain even moisture as roots develop to help prevent splitting and encourage tender growth.
Rotate carrot crops around the garden rather than repeatedly growing them in the same position to help reduce the build-up of soil-borne pests and diseases.
Maturity: approximately 65–80 days.

Brassica oleracea var. botrytis
All Year Round is a dependable traditional Cauliflower producing excellent quality, tightly packed white heads on relatively compact plants. The developing curds are naturally well protected by surrounding foliage, helping maintain their clean white colour and quality.
Cauliflower has been cultivated in the Mediterranean for centuries and became particularly associated with Italy before spreading throughout Europe. Mark Twain famously described it as “cabbage with a college education”, an apt description for this somewhat refined member of the Brassica oleracea family.
The firm white heads have a mild, slightly sweet flavour and are exceptionally versatile in the kitchen. Enjoy raw, steamed, roasted, grilled, pickled, mashed, added to curries and soups or baked whole. The leaves and tender stems are also edible and need not be discarded.
Despite its name, All Year Round performs best when its main head development occurs during cooler weather. In much of Australia, successive sowings beginning in late summer can provide an extended harvest through the cooler months. Plants prefer full sun, fertile, well-drained soil with a near-neutral pH and consistent moisture.
Seed count: approximately 240–420 seeds/g
Approximately 90 seeds per packet
When to Plant (Australia)
Tropics: Autumn to winter in cooler locations
Subtropics: Late summer to autumn
Mild climates: Late summer to autumn, with successive sowings into the cooler months
Cold climates: Spring to early summer
Planting / Sowing
Sow directly or raise in trays, approximately 5–10 mm deep. Keep consistently moist during germination and establishment.
Transplant or thin seedlings to approximately 45–60 cm apart in full sun and rich, well-drained soil. Maintain consistent moisture throughout growth, as water stress can affect head development.
As white heads begin to form, loosely fold or tie the surrounding leaves over the curd to protect it from strong sunlight and help maintain its white colour. Harvest while heads are firm, compact and tightly formed.
If saving seed, remember that Cauliflower will cross-pollinate readily with other compatible Brassica oleracea varieties, so adequate isolation is required to maintain the variety true to type.
Due to quarantine restrictions, TAS has an 800g limit per each seed variety and WA has a 10,000 seeds limit per variety.
Brassica oleracea var. botrytis
Snowball is a dependable cauliflower producing tight, solid white heads approximately 15 cm across with a crisp, tender texture and excellent flavour. Well suited to warmer growing regions, this reliable variety produces high-quality curds ideal for fresh eating, steaming, roasting, and freezing. Matures in around 70–90 days.
Approximately 65 seeds per packet
