Low Nutrition Broccoli

I just learned today that one of the varieties of Broccoli we grow in our garden, “Marathon”, has 35% less calcium and magnesium per serving than other Broccoli hybrids.

I liked growing Marathon because it seemed to be easier to grow than other varieties.

Ease of growing is a good criterion for selecting a variety to grow, but it does not trump nutrition in my book.
