The ChefPax Mix is our signature blend — a single 10×20 live tray that contains five varieties seeded and grown together: Rambo Radish, Red Acre Cabbage, Purple Vienna Kohlrabi, Lacinato Kale, and Di Cicco Broccoli. Rather than choosing a single crop, you get a curated spectrum of flavors, textures, and colors in a single snip.
Seeded at 2 oz per 10×20 tray and harvested in 8–10 days, the ChefPax Mix is designed for cooks who want variety without managing five individual trays. The result is a visually diverse blend — purple radish stems, blue-green kale, green broccoli and kohlrabi, and the occasional cabbage color — that brings complexity to simple dishes with zero extra effort.
The flavor balance in the ChefPax Mix was intentionally designed around the Austin palate: enough spicy radish to add interest, enough mild broccoli and kohlrabi to keep the heat in check, with kale providing a slightly more bitter, mineral note and cabbage adding subtle sweetness. The blend performs beautifully as a salad base, a juice blend starting point, or a garnish that changes slightly with each snip as you work through the tray.
The ChefPax Mix delivers a balanced peppery-to-sweet flavor spectrum in a single serving. The Rambo Radish provides a spicy, horseradish-like kick, while the kohlrabi and broccoli contribute mild, earthy sweetness. The cabbage adds subtle sweetness, and the kale brings a gentle, mineral bitterness that grounds the blend. Together, the flavors create a layered experience that shifts as you snip different sections of the tray.
The ChefPax Mix is nutritionally diverse by design — each variety contributes different vitamins and phytonutrients. You get the sulforaphane of broccoli, the glucosinolates of kale, the anthocyanins of radish and cabbage, and the broad vitamin C and K content of all five crops together. This nutritional diversity is one of the key advantages of a blended microgreen tray over a single-variety approach.
For a deeper look at vitamins and phytonutrients studied across varieties, see the microgreens nutrition guide.
The ChefPax Mix arrives as a live 10×20 tray with all five varieties growing together. Keep in indirect light at room temperature and snip what you need. A well-watered tray can last up to 2–3 weeks — water lightly every 1–2 days and keep in indirect light. Because the blend includes varieties with different optimal harvest windows, the first 10 days deliver the best flavor balance.

The ChefPax Mix contains five varieties grown together in a single 10×20 live tray: Rambo Radish, Red Acre Cabbage, Purple Vienna Kohlrabi, Lacinato Kale, and Di Cicco Broccoli. The blend is seeded at 2 oz per tray for a balanced, dense microgreen canopy.
The seed blend is consistent, but the ratio of each variety in your snip will vary slightly depending on which part of the tray you cut. This is a feature, not a bug — the blend creates natural variety as you work through the tray, and the overall flavor balance is consistent order to order.
The Mix is ideal if you want variety with minimum overhead — one tray to manage, one delivery, diverse flavors. Individual trays make sense if you cook with specific microgreens regularly and want control over the flavor intensity of each component. Many customers start with the Mix and then add individual trays as they develop preferences.
ChefPax Mix is a blend of multiple microgreen varieties — including brassica crops such as broccoli, kohlrabi, kale, cabbage, and purple radish, alongside buckwheat and texsel greens — selected for complementary flavor, texture, and phytochemical diversity. The brassica-dominant composition draws on one of the most studied crop families in microgreen nutrition research.
• Brassica microgreens have been studied for elevated glucosinolate and sulforaphane precursor content relative to mature vegetables.
moderate evidence• A blend of brassica varieties and complementary greens provides a broader range of phytochemical types than any single crop alone.
moderate evidence• Nutrient and phytochemical levels across microgreen varieties vary by species, seed source, light exposure, and harvest timing.
