A detailed guide. How to sprout Chia.

[@samaishere7494]

I mean it is a bit slow but he said detailed so can we really Blame him 🤷🏻‍♀️

[@sproutinggreeningandeating8493]

i'll try to make them shorter/faster

[@katgagnon4509]

You can always turn up the playback speed if you find the video slow. I do it all the time when researching

[@Kaileynorriscreates]

No, no we can’t blame him.

Where did you get the nutrition information for chia microgreens?

[@sproutinggreeningandeating8493]

FoodData central among others

[@snickerzzzb.m9276]

Well done! Nice video!

[@ashleygehrig3553]

Where would I find plexiglass this size?

[@lisadelvalle1936]

What is the recipe for the pea mash??

[@zoeleimback1711]

can you use a paper towel to go on top of the soil?

[@sproutinggreeningandeating8493]

Hi Zoe, if it is non chlorinated and it should be thin, so easy to be penetrated by the roots. When i use kitchen paper i always seperate the layers and use just one.

[@kristiancloma1966]

The leaves will grow again after you cut the stem?

[@sproutinggreeningandeating8493]

No, but there are still a lot of "too late, lazy sprouts" still growing so you can use it a second round. Simply don't cut the stem too deep. After the second harvest i trow the paper in the garden and there are still some coming up in the summer. Normally, i let them mature for the seeds.

[@Niftysoul1]

If u trim them regularly will it stay small im asking cause I want to keep the plant 🌱 small like your plant

[@keilleymeng3360]

How often do you water them?

[@sproutinggreeningandeating8493]

Hi Kelley, Depends on the humidity. When the air is >40% once a day. When the humidity is low, lets say

[@conna2447]

Do they stay tiny? I know this might be a dumb question but i really like how they look when they're small

[@frenchfries4761]

Same

[@nooramjad9172]

If i dont have a pixi glass to cover the chia seeds, can i still grow it in a clay plate with soil and tissue while covering it with paper bag?

[@roxville]

You don't even need soil, actually! You can sprout them just fine directly on the plate. Plenty of instructions on how to do that on the net.

[@suzannebarley4365]

Enchanting!

I think I used too much water, mine are growing mold not sprouting. Should I just throw it out?

[@sproutinggreeningandeating8493]

Hi Bianca Watering is experience. In the morning use a small indoor watering can to pour tapwater for 3 counts (seconds) and immediately pour it out. There will be enough moist for one day. When it is hot and/or dry you can water it twice a day. I will make a video recording on the watering.

[@sproutinggreeningandeating8493]

Perhaps what you see is not mold. When sprouting, most plants use root hairs to pull water from the earth. They are very tiny and all together look like mold. I will plan a video recording with a close up of the root hairs. When your tools are clean and your environment is not mouldy it should take a while before you start to see mold.

[@yurikophouapanya9790]

Wow

[@marianaavila9148]

what happens if you do not cut them, will it keep growing? do they die?

[@sproutinggreeningandeating8493]

Yes they will outgrow the soil and die because they will have to compete each other for more soil, water, nutrients and light. When i'm finished harvesting i keep a few kale, basil, broccoli, etc sprouts for the airoponic tower or for the garden.

[@monicasafreed6726]

Not for me. Don't have any plexiglass circles. There are much simpler ways to achieve a Great crop.🔆

[@izidave]

OMG, get on with it!

Thanks for your support. Sofar i did 8 video's but there are still many to do. To keep doing this i need more subscribers so please share and/or subscribe. GROW YOUR OWN FOOD!

[@eeshas.3890]

@@sproutinggreeningandeating8493 I think he means that the video was a bit slow. Maybe you can do timelapses to make it faster, especially when doing the smaller tasks? Great content tho, thanks!

[@gumonthepants]

I chose the speed up video option in the window to watch at 2x speed. Still a little slow, lol

[@dashapacheco1364]

Do they regrow after you cut them?

[@sproutinggreeningandeating8493]

No

[@pfeilsusan]

No watering?

[@sproutinggreeningandeating8493]

each morning

[@brandonleigh182]

How much can you eat per day

[@sproutinggreeningandeating8493]

Hi Brandon, Good question. The maximum i eat is a quarter of the used dish chia per day. So one dish of chia provides me with 4 days of meals. Because i also eat other micro greens i do not grow chia more than 3 times a month. You should know that chia lowers the bloodpressure so people suffering from low bloodpressure or taking medicine against high blood pressure should be careful.

[@GagandeepSingh-vi1um]

You should wash the microgreens before eating!

[@laviqhmpl]

Camera angle is a bit....

[@albasolorzano4685]

Man can u do it more slow!!

[@jacob.g.l1592]

This is overly complicated for no reason.

[@natashasteyn6481]

Why the plexiglass it is stupidp

[@sproutinggreeningandeating8493]

It's clever Natasha. It keeps the moist in, germs out and forces the root down in the soil so they will not entangle with each other.
