Hi donny do you have a product catalog just want to see what you're offering?

[@alissamarie464]

Looking good in this video 😍 can’t wait to watch the progress unfold! Excited to have a microgreens farm in our basement!

[@DonnyGreens]

Love you baby, cant freakin wait, thanks for all your help and support. Such great pals we are 💚💚💚💚

[@reggiedunlop2222]

Thanks for the tour Donny. Happy to see you’re humble and can admit some of the mistakes you’ve made in your process. I appreciate your positive attitude too…stay well!

[@DonnyGreens]

Much love Reggie, thanks for the good vibes in this comment!!! 🌱💚

Hi Donny! I used hugelkultur in my 8' x 8' raised bed and it's working GREAT! It also saves a ton of $$ for those high beds, by using chunks of wood, branches, leaves, and grass clippings in the bottom and only adding your soil to the top 12" to 18" or so. If the bottoms are open and you plan to start over, I'd recommend laying down 1/2" hardware cloth to set them on as I have had the occasional critter burrow under the edges of my bed, climb up the wooden underlayer, and get in to my crops!! I'm using hardware cloth around the outside now, to deter the chipmunks, squirrels, and rabbits...and I have a 3' section above the beds of that same hardware cloth, to keep birds and deer from getting to it. Love watching your videos! Keep them coming!!

[@DonnyGreens]

Thanks so much for your great advice and positivity!! This is actually EXACTLY what I did with those beds!! Logs on the bottom, then woodchips, and then compost on top. Just wish i turned the compost into a blend instead of straight compost haha!!

[@stevefoster8731]

just a thought, the metal raised beds, are they getting to hot and the plants to close to the edge? like when you touch your car that has been setting in the sun all day.

[@waywardcajunfarms2731]

Great video! really cool to watch the progress and the the utilization of space and see the vision for the future. Best of luck keep at it!

[@DonnyGreens]

Thanks so much for the positivity and support!!!! 🌱💚

[@craciunator99]

Beautiful house man congrats! Keep on killing it, you're a huge inspiration to us aspiring to start our own microgreens business!

[@DonnyGreens]

Thanks so much!! So glad to hear that, makes me so happy to be turning others onto this. Very grateful 🌱💚 Are you up and running yet or just getting started?

[@craciunator99]

@@DonnyGreens Well I was 2 weeks into going to the farmers market and I had a 3 ton block fall on my feet at work, crushed my feet and broke my ankles, so Im stuck home for a while. I fully intend on having something up and running by the time Im supposed to return to work, my goal is to not have to return to work and just do microgreens and sprouts. Just grateful I have my feet still and it wasnt worse. Its the perfect opportunity to do what I really want to do though.

[@destination...diamond3892]

So happy for you 💓 for your new farm space! Looking forward to seeing it all put together and also very interested in those pretty green and gold trays! 😀 Have a great vacation, you have earned it! Ps..favorite parts was all of it! Loved the Living room and the dining room, the front porch future hydroponic grow space, kitty, the raised beds, the lettuce seeds, the pool, the chestnut tree, the fig tree, the garage, the water filter room and the basement grow room!

[@rhondamateer8834]

Loved the whole walk thru so happy for you ❤️

[@hiimchris]

I love this so much. Wet Inspirational .

[@joshuablanchette2836]

Donny you ever think of switching to hydroponics. I pack 3x the amount of seeds into the same tray. No soil to mess around with and no mold problems.

[@norameehan4633]

Loved the video! Especially Love your sharing about the projects you are working on and the progress you are making. 👍

[@DonnyGreens]

Thanks so much! 😊 I figured people would like to see my journey and how im navigating so they can get ideas, learn, and grow!! Thanks so much for your comment 🌱💚

[@cakopinolo]

Finally u back...congrats for your own trays..we are just starting our microgreens farm in Barcellona,if u intersted in a reviewer/influencer for your trays and kits in Spain ,we are here

[@DonnyGreens]

Awesomeee thanks so much for your positivity!! I will see about Spain shipping. Not sure we were going to do the kits much further than North America simply because of logisitics

[@cakopinolo]

okay.. even only trays if u interested we are here

[@topazblahblah]

Nice tour! Love to see the progress and a new direction. Keep growing, man! ✌️

[@DonnyGreens]

Much love!!! 🌱💚 thanks for this comment

[@joedukes9760]

Hey Donny, looks like you need to put some worm towers in those garden beds! A little vermiculture can go a long way to restoring/creating a good micro biome for you garden. Getting started asap could give them enough time to get established before your spring plantings. Glad to see you back.

[@DonnyGreens]

Great idea Joe, i TOTALLY want to start getting worms going. 🪱 not sure about this season though haha but maybe

[@susanr.gilbert4098]

Beautiful piece of property. I volunteered at an urban farm in Atlanta and one project was removing a lot of elderberry plants because they just take over... And that basement looks like good place for mushrooms

[@DonnyGreens]

Thanks susan!! Hopefully these elderberries dont take over too much haha! And yes I definitely want to get into mushrooms in the future!

[@bhazleton]

I love love love your update, Thanks !

[@DonnyGreens]

You are so welcome! Thanks so much for your positivity!!! 🌱💚💚💚

[@megabran6288]

Loved the tour Donny!! I’ve heard that if you hang a bunch of old CDs from stings the birds don’t really like the flashes of light that get reflected from them. They aren’t into orchard discos lol keep up the hard work and you will be a huge success. I know it.

[@DonnyGreens]

OH MY GOSH!! That was literally my plan haha. My mom freakin strung all these cds near her berries and i thought she was crazy but it works! Much love 🌱💚

[@marthalandry5616]

Thank you for sharing your life with me. You’re really busy how big is this property.

[@DonnyGreens]

Thanks for commenting!! 🌱💚 the property is one acre

[@franciscojaviergarridorome1170]

HELLO FRIEND, I'M GOING TO BEGIN TO SET UP A MICROGREENS FARM, AND I WANTED TO KNOW WHICH LED LIGHT IS BETTER IF LED T5 OR T8, THANK YOU I LOVE YOUR CHANNEL

[@petpe501]

Nice to See you again...thank you for Update... An other question...Can you recommend videos about making edible flowers? Or Text or samthing...? Hug

[@DonnyGreens]

Thank you!!! I dont have any info on edible flowers yet because im not good at growing them yet haha. Hopefully i can learn this winter!

[@MariaVasquez-he5nt]

Hi do you use only promix for microgreens? Or you mixed it? Thank you

[@DonnyGreens]

Only promix mp organik, yes

[@akujigito6885]

How many microgreen plants are needed to produce 1 kg of plants in the house. Please answer please 🙏🙏

[@bhazleton]

Could you share the type of whole house water filter that you use? Thank you.

[@DonnyGreens]

I got mine from a local company called pHountain! Its their home water filtration system. They might only be local though

[@dwaaziwaazi]

Fog and ozone the basement and keep humidity under 55%. Vapor barriers seem like overkill

[@DonnyGreens]

Nice, thanks so much for this advice. Im thinking the barrier is overkill as well. Fogging and ozoning the basement is a great idea to reset/sanitize. Is that safe if its underneath the living space? Could it seep through the floor? Is that ok?

[@dwaaziwaazi]

@@DonnyGreens ozone to rid of organic mold, must and odors. This is not meant for use while growing. Don’t ozone around people, plants and pets.. Run for an hour and circulate with an air mover. Return after 3-4 hrs and open doors..

[@DonnyGreens]

Awesome bro, thank you for this info!

[@akujigito6885]

What is the distance between the lamp and the plant in cm?(microgreen)

[@dst1311]

What year is the house? It looks in great condition? Grandparents pass? Condolences 🙏

[@DonnyGreens]

Grandparents are in assisted living now, which opened up the house. They're still kicking but definitely towards the end... The house was built by my grandfather '58 - '59. Thank you!! It’s in good condition but just hasn't been updated since the 60's haha

[@tarr7016]

What water filter do you use?

[@Jason.Goldstriker]

That place need allot of work but its got potential

[@kylesnyder3757]

Epoxy the floor with green specks.

[@DonnyGreens]

That would be so dope!!! Have you ever worked with epoxy? I don't know much about it

[@kylesnyder3757]

@@DonnyGreens Use the garage floor kits! Paint the base with a roller and sprinkle the specks over it. Talk to you contractor about it. There are also a lot of KZbin videos about it.

[@rodrigoendress3891]

Epoxy is definitely a great solution for comercial kitchen/farm/business! (y)

Hey Donny. Why the long breaks?? 😭

[@DonnyGreens]

Im sorry! Super busy. New videos are coming out now including an update video!

[@mrstlavery]

Look into stain for the floor.

[@DonnyGreens]

Ahh stain could be cool, i could stain the concrete and then it would look fresh and consistent, great idea!!! Thank you!!

[@mrstlavery]

[@melanselm9159]

Hey Donny! Thank you for the tour, what a lovely home! You've done so much already and do share your progress please, gives me inspiration to convert my place into something like yours! Of course, Malaysia is stinking hot most of the time but will definitely take ideas from you. All the best!

[@12pak]

[@DonnyGreens]
