In the 80s, I grew a LOT of sprouts and am thinking growing them again. This video was extremely helpful and precise. It is nice that you show the soil and no-soil method simultaneously. Bravo!

[@lukefossati3788]

*in the 80s

[@garimaghosh3966]

Thank you so much . Extremely helpful one with slow technique ,no background music lol. I saved your video for just in case . Tomorrow morning I gotta plant mustard seeds. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🙏

[@youarelife3437]

Thank you so much for the info. I'm about to be 22 years old and I realised that I'e never grown anything. EVER! I've planted seeds but never stayed around to watch the progress. I always wanted to try with mustard seeds. Now' the time baby ; )

[@Dormousey]

I hope you continued :)

[@deioniciyoung8515]

Best instructional video on growing mustards THANKS!

[@GeorgetteBu]

I Iive in a rural area of North Carolina where we have Red Clay Soil. I looked up the price of Red Clay and found it to be $15.11 a pound. However I have seen the local families grow all types of Salad Greens for decades but never knew that mustard greens or any salad green could be grown without soil. I have mustards, collards, and kale growing in Red Clay. I am ordering more seeds as we speak and grow them in trays without soil. Thank You Very Much. and... Stay Safe from COVID 19.

[@bizcoach7]

Thanks a lot, Khang, that's exactly what I was looking for. I bought mustard seeds from an Indian shop to make homemade mustard, and and I wondered if I can use them for sprouting the way I use mung beans and others. Great channel, subscribed and will recommend :)

[@MadisonLady]

Thank you. I bought mustard seeds thinking I could sprout them the same way as alfalfa, broccoli etc. Since it did not work , I will try this next

[@MrToppazj]

Hi, thanks for the vid.. i appreciate you put the other link in your description.. more quickly to get to them.. another point i like is you said what taste the sprout as.. because some are more interesting then other.. and how to know at first to find what seed to buy ? so i will defenitely sprout Mustard for sure...As for the soil method, i saw another video where the person put a paper towel over the seeds, first it help to keep moisture.. but it also keep the harvest "cleaner" as we cut.. no soil get in the sprout... else then that.. great info.. Mike

[@elizabethcampbell450]

Thanks for the video, I just started my first sprouts in a jar four days ago. Your videos are very helpful.

[@priti2483]

I will try without soil method. Happy to get this idea. I use coriander seeds from indian store to grow cilantro.we get plenty of seeds for reasonable price.

[@heidijones6187]

What a great idea to add them to sushi rolls!!! Thank-you for the excellent info!!

[@delphiniapickett2934]

I had too many in my cabinet now i can grow them😊

[@martinlaursen7972]

Great video. I love that you found ways to make it super cheap.

[@lukefossati3788]

indeed except for poopee

[@jann2759]

When you chop the top do the stalks grow back or need to down new seeds?

[@jodybortone2483]

great to see both methods. thank you. Inexpensive and looks easy--i have been trying sprouting in jars and frankly this method looks easier

[@rawified6541]

I appreciate all your great videos on microgreens. Thank you!

[@malikamcreynolds]

Good demonstration. Thank you.

[@tonyferrari3754]

Good video Khang, i will definitely grow those, very easy to grow, tasty and highly nutritious, thanks.

[@MegaLivingIt]

Thanks for this hint I can do here in a city apartment.🧡🌿

[@John-zh6ld]

As usual, fantastic job Khang! I just tried growing 10 trays. By the 3rd day were covered in Mold. I had them stacked on top of each other w the top tray covered. What went wrong?

[@theuglykwan]

I never thought to use the seeds from spice aisles! Great tip and so cheap too.

[@sandrastreifel6452]

theuglykwan: Yes, there are lots of Indian grocery stores in my city.

[@patriciaweaver7735]

Hellohow long can you harvest these greens and after you cut them where is the best place to store them in the fridge or back where you grew them away from the light. thanks for the great video.

[@RobBackyardGardenerr]

Ok Khang... now you've made me want to grow some mustard greens. Fast, seems easy, and on a sandwich? Whatta win-win. Great video! Thanks.

[@KhangStarr]

Thanks Rob! I think you'll really enjoy growing these. They are fast, easy, healthy and is a great addition to foods.

[@ladydrone2345]

Do they taste exactly the same using both methods? lf not, which method produces the better tasting sprouts? Thx.

[@kinderjoytoysunboxing1950]

I tried it, it grows really fast and looks good.

[@ghazalaherbalbeautytips8782]

Well explained, excellent. I do love to grow and experiment different types of species. Thanks

[@abheeshabusawon1448]

I love these in my egg mayonnaise salad or on top of scramble eggs :) I've always bought them from the supermarket, but I will definitely follow your instructions to grow some at home. Thank you for this very informative video.

[@KhangStarr]

+Abheesha Busawon You're welcome!

[@LDebbieg]

Awesome video once again! Love your vids!

[@gisan.4144]

Love, love the video. Thank you for sharing this recipe with us.

[@MissKirin6]

Hey just wondering whether your takeaway containers also have holes?

[@bubbaz88]

Great clear explanation, thanks!

[@amateurgamer1172]

Hi. Thanks for the great video. I just want to ask, did you make holes on the take-out container? Thanks.

[@Chedoc]

If u continue to let them grow would it give mustard seeds??or is this method just for growing leaves?

[@LindaCrampton]

Thanks for a useful video and the clear instructions. I love mustard microgreens but haven't grown them for a while. I've going to grow them again now that I've seen your video.

[@KhangStarr]

Linda Crampton They are so good and has a unique spicy flavor. Thanks for watching!

[@peterbrown2882]

Did they need to be covered and placed in the dark till they sprouted, and then exposed to light ?

[@nitijagwani]

hi Khang I am fan of your videos. I have been sprouting the mustard from a while but off late there is mould developing in my trays. Is it because its hot in Muscat, Oman. What to do i do to not have mould in my micros greens

[@TFGFilmandTape]

There are several things you can do to prevent or reduce mold and this goes for any smallish seed. First, grow hydrologically without using soil. Use a product like Biostrate, which is a natural hemp-based material made for growing microgreens. Using bleached paper towels is never a good idea due to the chemicals used in the manufacture and bleaching. Second, use 10x20 trays that have no holes but do have the raised tracks on the bottom of the tray. This allows water to flow back and forth under the hemp pads. Third, water from the bottom only. Watering from the top induces mold growth because the moisture gets trapped inside the greens and stays there. Water from each end of the tray, rock the tray back and forth slowly, then pour off the excess water. Only water once per day unless the pads feel dry. Fourth, always spray your cleaned trays with hydrogen-peroxide (purchased from the drug store in 3% solution) before reusing and spray liberally on any patches of mold that develop. It will kill it instantly and is safe for humans to ingest. Finally, mold grows on the top, not the bottom. Those white cotton-looking patches at base are part of the plant, they are not mold.

[@TFGFilmandTape]

I meant to type "grow hydroponically"

[@mirajoshi5714]

Can you please tell what care need to be taken while growing microgreens on tissue to avoid fungi?? I tried to grow fenugreek and flax seeds on tissue but got fungus on them after three days

[@angelaleehealwithcompassio6525]

I use mustard microgreens in my daily omlet. Ty for showing soiless method

[@familyrudihaugen5084]

hi. no need to soak the seeds? the same process for wheatgrass seeds?

[@jamescc2010]

Do you need to have good air circulation at early stage? Is there a good chance of getting mold which I am a little concerned indoor? Definitely will do soil less to avoid a mess. :) thx

[@KhangStarr]

+James Chuaycham I covered that in this video kzbin.info/www/bejne/ZqWaYWZmaKyjlcU

[@DROY2004]

You can buy unbleached paper towels to avoid some if not most chemicals. Thanks for the info!. Shalom!

[@RaghavendraRajadhyaksha]

Awesome video. Very good and to the point explanation of the subject.

[@binchyaube7885]

Excellent video. Did you make holes in the small containers before filling the soil in to prevent mold?

[@1982allyboy]

wow such nice and simple video... would follow the process ....

[@marlo530]

Hey Khang your videos are very helpful. Once you harvest the microgreens/sprouts from the soil, what do you do with the soil? Can you reuse it or do you compose it?

[@KhangStarr]

compost, then reuse.

[@youarelife3437]

What happens if I expose them to the light earlier? Also, it's pretty cloudy here so my plants wont get direct sunlight. Do they need direct sunlight or is it ok?

[@bhsbass]

Will it grow back if you chop them?

[@DROY2004]

I’m having trouble timing my different MG’s to harvest at peak nutrients without going that extra day or two over where the MG’s go fibrous or harvesting them to early & off peak, where can I get the info on each one without wasting time with trial & error? Shalom! Thanks!

[@vasuch2639]

Hi khang, I was tried that with soil but i saw some white fungus like material on that, of course Seeds are sprouted my doubt is,that safe to eat that for health as a micro green?

[@vasuch2639]

@TheAquaStan thank you so much for your valuable reply

[@lakshmipriya1219]

Very useful for my biology project

[@robinfisher4847]

hi Khang. I've watched nearly all of your videos on sprouting and love your detailed easy methods. :-) I'm having trouble with my arugula seeds sticking together and making a "blanket" which prevents sprouting. Had to throw trays away. Maybe overwatering? (no holes) Question. Are there any seeds that you soak? I don't recall seeing you soak any seeds for sprouting. All my seed bags have directions for soaking except for the really tiny ones. Is it necessary? Sure is easier to spread dry seeds. Thanks again - Robin

[@dexxxxxxxx]

Is it ok if we harvest them on day 10? What if we expose them to light for 3 days?

[@TandZAptLife]

That was a great video. I like the soil free method better for me.

[@Kupo_Kaachan]

Can you take seeds from them to plant new ones in order to be self sufficient with the cress?

[@sugandhasinha03]

Hi , I tried this with fenugreek , they sprouted well but after three days they don’t seem to grow much. Please advise

[@sugandhasinha03]

I used the no soil method

[@chsatishkumar5491]

Hi khang star thank you very much for nice and useful information. pls let me know the Time duration for soil and soiless ripen mustards ? waiting for your reply.

[@meldmagic]

How much can you reuse the soil for sprouting before you have to chuck it out? Would there be any toxic build-up?

[@KhangStarr]

I grow these indoors so I never reuse the soil, but I heard the remaining soil makes excellent compost.

[@heidipucci9078]

Do you cut them or pull them out?

[@reasonablevegan]

Great video! Thank you!

[@celtickitc]

Thanks. I have a big bag of mustard seed

[@jamusherpa2312]

Wow thanks for showing 👌🏻 I will try I'm enjoying this video

[@mykvass]

mine were not so tall ??? do you keep them covered till day 7 or can you take off the cover at day 6

[@jacquecraven7601]

Hey dude I’ve been watching many videos and am just starting out looking to be a winter grower/starter/fruiter (hopefully) in Colorado. I keep seeing a silver shelving wrack for your hydroponics. But I’m trying to figure out how I should set up as a beginner likely doing a few peppers, some herbs, and sprouts. Any tips would be awesome. Thanks so much and keep it up bro!

[@KhangStarr]

Check out my indoor tour video and you will see my setup in details.

[@thorodinson2870]

after that, are we need to move them to another place? to let them grow

[@teekotrain6845]

Loooove using either to go trays or the plastic bins my mixed greens come in for Teeko my bunny

[@NarasimmanML]

This is awesome. Like it ...Will try for sure

[@kathyfloydflashy1]

Thanks for the video. One question and one request. Question: Can you use the same dried beans or seeds that you use for eating? Request: I would like to see how you "harvest".

[@KhangStarr]

Kitty Lane Yes, the seeds are the same. To harvest, for grown in soil, just cut as far down as you can. For soil-less, pull them up, rinse the hulls off and eat.

[@kathyfloydflashy1]

Thank you for the speedy response. I had purchased a bag of "sprouting lentils" and then wondered if the bag of "dried lentils' I purchased to cook would sprout too. What would be the negatives of just using the dried ones?

[@KhangStarr]

The negatives to using the dried ones is that you may not know how long they have been on the shelves. Older seeds do not have good germination as the ones made for sprouting.

[@PortugueseGirl27]

Uau : D thank you from Portugal 🇵🇹

[@ritesharora6032]

After we cut the sprouts, can we reuse the soil to grow more or soil has to be thrown ?

[@KhangStarr]

Yes, if you compost it first. Here's a video on this topic. kzbin.info/www/bejne/iXjLk4CuqbCnpLs

[@Lucy-h9c]

in which season best to grow ???

[@moonchild16]

Nice piece of information 👍

[@wmscool-gamingvideos4308]

how long can the mustard sprouts survive using the paper towel method and how long can their roots get?

[@halogencrafts468]

Can I use tissue paper instead of paper towel???

[@sumedhajoshi7426]

After harvesting do they again grow ?

[@livingyogawithgrace]

thanks bro, loved your attitude

[@lukefossati3788]

love u to dad

[@dhirajkothari3360]

Thanks for the video...

[@Gairuntee]

Your speaking voice sounds like Prince. So nice.

[@harleenkaur9771]

Can we grow yellow mustard seeds with tissue papaer???

[@deedeason1632]

thanks i did not know for sure about paper towels,read somewhere you can use unbleached so i am about to start mine :-) awesome video by the way good format

[@KhangStarr]

Dee Deason Thank you Dee!

[@deedeason1632]

was very good video was not exactly what to do. i have never done it that way and i want my greens in the winter :-)

[@errrrattan6438]

Excellant very useful information.

[@badabingluigi]

Draining holes necessary?

[@texarkanaandi7393]

Hi Khang, I just bought a bag of Black Beans from Walmart, and I like to ask one question. Are the sprouts of Black Beans edible to humans?

[@anjumshaikh4949]

Yes. . They have loads of health benifits too

[@IamFriendLeaves]

Your information is really very beneficial. Thanks so much for providing important information. I also provide information related to gardening.

[@DivinityinLove]

Mine were green but with red bits... Wasn't sure if they were OK but maybe there were some red mustard seeds mixed with the green idk?

[@Arifin06]

Thank you for the info,may Allah bless you :)

[@meehan302]

Thanks very much for sharing your valuable information

[@babanachiket]

I followed your method and it grew mould

[@ExtravagantFragrances]

do you have to keep them in the dark? Can't you just grow them in the light all the way through?

[@KhangStarr]

ExtravagantFragrance Yes, you can. If you want to see the difference, check out my pea shoots video where I compared the two.

[@juliapace2845]

i very much enjoyed your video - good information and good quality. The one thing that bothers me a little is that i want to see you.

[@hamadkhamis4642]

Julia Pace hay

[@barbibutton9619]

Julia Pace why? lol

[@calbaking]

Because of this sexy guy's voice.

[@fox8340]

Scary old lady

[@AshwaniSharma-dn5uc]

Barbi Button Ereee

[@khairulalamsojib3114]

Hi, Can I use the soil multiple time ? and the microgreen seeds, are they different type ? Thanks for your great video.

[@sabiha3492]

Don't we need to soak then before putting it in soil...?

[@mr_1ace]

What is temperature i should keeping my microgreens for best growing?!

[@KhangStarr]

Andrey Volkov Around 73-75 F with good air circulation.

[@srilithi2681]

Good for environment

[@lamchau_]

That pressurized water bottle looks handy! Where did you get it?

[@KhangStarr]

+Lam Chau Home Depot.

[@russlee650]

Great vids on microgreens, thanks for adding where and how much you get the seeds. I'm just starting so keep them coming! Do you have a list of all the seeds your grow that you find at grocery stores?

[@KhangStarr]

I don't have a list, but you can get mustard seeds, cress seeds, mung beans, fenugreek, lentils, etc at most Indian super market. Check out my other videos on how to grow these.

[@russlee650]

Khang Starr Many Thanks!

[@amandacristopher7432]

please tell all the uses of microgreens. Once I potted some fenugreek seeds in small container, it sprouted well like yours. But I don't know how to use it,so threw them.

[@KhangStarr]

+Amanda Cristopher I use them in salads, soups, sandwiches, and sometimes in juice.

[@MaZEEZaM]

This is great, thanks for the video :)

[@gomezaddams6470]

where are you at as far as geography? the reason I'm asking is I am near Seattle Washington USA. and they say that most things in are Asian and Indian stores have been irradiated or irritated however you say it. So that would stop them from sprouting. And asking the people there if they're raw wouldn't help any because they don't know. So I'm wondering where you live because the laws would be the same for you if you're not living and India or your Indian store is most things that come overseas have had this done to it from what I've been told by all of these videos so I'm just curious on what your take is on that. Very interested in your opinion! Thank you

[@JAYWLEE]

for the soil method, what is the second thing you added? The one that looks like wood chips

[@KhangStarr]

That's just organic compost soil. There is nothing else I added.

[@bella_ishere]

Thank you so much...

[@tidus3101]

thanks for the video :) at 01:20 you are showing 1 month arugula leaves if im not wrong i would be interested to do the same, could you explain how to ? i tried to let it grow after 2 week but it was all rotten :( maybe i shoud spread less seeds ? (i put the more as i can arugula seeds until there no space in the container) (sorry for my bad english btw it isnt my native lang)

[@KhangStarr]

ysir ir Yes, those arugula at 1:30 is about a month old. When you grow them like that, they require alot of lights. Also, you'll need to give them some organic fertilizer. In a small container like that, nutrients will be depleted very quickly. So the trick is, less seeds, lots of lights, and feed them organic fertilizer for vegetables.

[@tidus3101]

Khang Starr Ok thanks !, i'll give it a try :)
