I've heard of putting a tiny bit of bleach in the water to avoid mold. But if you avoid it without using bleach, that'd be ideal. Do you find by not stacking them up you completely avoid mold? Also, is it rolled oats you use?

Thanks for this informative video. What kind of grow light are you using?

[@whistlingdixiefarms9965]

Practical Shooter they are just standard fluorescent shop lights with daylight bulbs. Fodder doesn’t need a ton of light so even setting up by a window would be plenty
