Anyone have good articles/research on DLI to enhance nutrients in microgreens? Thanks!

Hello everyone, I would like to ask you where to buy quality seeds in Spain. Thank you so much.

Greetings! I purchased a broccoli sprouting kit from True Leaf Market and my family didn't care much for the sprouts. My question is this: can I use brocoli sprouting seeds for microgreens? I'm hoping to try with the organic seeds and see if we like them better as microgreens instead. Thank you for your input! 🌱

If it isn’t clear in the picture, the sprouts/shoots are kind of fuzzy

Similar to a "stealth grow" system I am looking for ideas or suggestions on growing just 1 or 2 trays. I feel it's best to have the trays somewhat isolated vs just sitting on a counter with a grow light - no? This would allow better control of the temp / humidity and also to contain the lighting better.

If I am overthinking it let me know and I'll just use some counter space to do a single tray at first.

Thanks!

What’s your go to topical treatment for your susceptible varieties? I’m talking about germination mode. If you tell me more fans I’m gonna lose it 😳. I’ve used h202 and i’ve heard hydroguard. Have you tried mikro or more copper? Thanks in advance

Just sent this arugula and spring mix off for a private dinner!

Please let me know how i am doing and are these ready for light? Any feedbacks are appreciated.

Hey so I’m pretty much ready to start looking for microgreens clients but I’m curious what everyone does for payment/invoicing? I’d like to have something that allows me to do subscription based sales as well!

Hey everyone, just curious what kind of containers yall are using for sale at the farmers market or grocery stores and what are your portions? I saw someone selling 1.5oz for $5 a pack. What kind of containers would you recommend? Any special containers for sample packs so they are nicely divided?

I am looking for compostable alternatives and currently am using Goodnatured 32oz clamshells to start.

Hi , where can i find biostrate in europe?

Hey everyone, I am new to all this microgreen business, but i still did some research about it and i have a rough idea about how it works, all the investment i need and material to start with and how to actually grow. But what i am missing is from where to get the seeds from ? (Knowing that i am from Luxembourg a very small country in Europe between Belgium, France and Germany).

Thank you to anyone willing to show guidance.

This is a test grow, to check for seed sources and germination rates and harvest:seed weight, and market research. Is the planting density too low?

I started doing this in October for something to do. This is on a table on the patio. Has anyone else grown outside? I plan to keep it going all winter and see what happens.

Does anyone know the green type name & the flowers?

Well, i recently came across this microgreens and microseed business and i am very interested in this topic, especially since i have siblings studying his master's in the field of agriculture and agronomy and from what i've seen it's a booming business.

How can i start and what can i do ? and is it really profitable as they say ? Can anyone guide me through this with details ? What are the expenses and where can i purchase the seeds and everything else ?
PS : i am from Luxembourg (Europe)
Thank you to anyone willing to provide any piece of information

I am looking to get some info on how much you guys make at farmers markets. I am going to Grad school and I’m looking for a way to make extra money. Thinking of doing micro greens because I can tend to the business around my school hours and then sell on the weekends.

That being said I’m guessing I will only be able to do two local farmers markets per week. They are well-attended markets around San Diego. I’m not looking to turn this a massive business but I’m looking to see if I can use this as a way to keep my head above water for the next 3-4 years until I finish school.

It’s hard to find resources on how much people typically sell at the farmers market. How much do you guys gross per market, how many units do you sell and what are your margins?

Thanks in advance for any advice!

Can anyone guide me on how can i start growing ? And what's needed ? Thank you

I’ve had a couple of bags of pea and sunflower seeds stored away since 2018 when I decided to get into micro greens. Life got nuts, we moved and I didn’t have the spoons to start growing again until now. To add insult to injury, I left them outside in the rain and snow recently when they got mixed up in a bin of soil bags. So they’re old, they’ve gotten wet, and frozen. Should I even try to sprout them or is it hopeless and I should just compost them and buy new?

My first ever tray of black oil sunflower seeds had patches of mold on it on day two, so I removed the moldy seeds and sprayed 3% hydrogen peroxide and water mix to stop the spread of mold. (It was under dome method, misting before covering. Seeds were from True Leaf.)

The trouble is, I've just learned the difference between food safe and grocery store peroxide, and I used the brown bottle grocery store variety on my sunflower seeds. Do you know if they are safe to grow, or should I throw out the whole tray and start from scratch?

Many thanks for your help from a microgreens newbie! 🌱

Is anyone growing microgreens in a grow tent?

I’m growing tired of dealing with soil, the mess and the work of it all. So I’m wondering what would I be sacrificing in terms of nutrients, size, taste etc if I go to a non-soil medium? I plan to try it out regardless, but I’m wondering if anyone has an empirical numbers, especially in terms of nutrients? Thanks
