Microgreens Guide for Beginners ( FULL WALK-THROUGH WITH TIPS & TRICKS)

[@maryellenlenander9761]

Ok 2 years growing microgreens because I stumbled on this video. This is the most satisfying delicious easy hobby! I just followed everything Mandy and CJ instructed and made no mistakes. I grow 2-3 trays daily. I donate the broccoli to my niece for her MS diet. I eat a tray of daikon radishes daily and also share another tray with a friend. My set up is in my exercise room. Health health health! Thank you Mandy and CJ.

[@OnTheGrow]

This was such a lovely comment to wake up and read this morning! Thank you Mary for sharing how your experience has been growing microgreens and we're both very grateful that we helped play a part in your new hobby!! It's amazing to hear back from our community, and see what they are doing with their Microgreens - and from the sounds of it, it appears yours are going to a good cause. We really appreciate your support.

I used to do all the kitchen orders at this fine dining restaurant. Whatever was needed I'd make a list and then call in the order from their four major suppliers Meat/Fish/Produce and a Wholesale company that sold everything else. One of our most expensive orders were these microgreens, they were a vital component in the restaurants menu and were used heavily on the app station as the standard house salad, a baby arugula salad and especially to garnish. If you think a regular basil leaf flower looks good on top of pasta pomodoro just picture a few micro baby basil instead, it looks sexier and rejuvenates an already classic dish. But we never ordered them from our produce supplier, we had to order them from a separate supplier who only supplied microgreens. They were called "Cookstown Greens", and I always pictured this company to be this huge farmland with acres of crop a mile long, located up north in a community that had a proud culture in agriculture. I recently visited Cookstown an it was anything but that. It was your typical normal looking suburb community that had your typical middle class culture. Now Cookstown Greens was inside this normal looking home whose business operations were all done in their basement. A house inside a suburban community was the cities major supplier of microgreens, their neighbours had no clue they were farmers, lol!

[@OnTheGrow]

Lol, here comes the urban farming revolution 😆 it’s amazing what you can produce in a very small space, with very little effort. So cool to hear, thanks for sharing!! 🤗🌱🌱

[@caveman9275]

Wow is this really videoed 3 years ago! And still one of the best out!!! Such a great job!

[@kakujo]

She is absolutely wonderful and the information was very helpful

[@drew-shourd]

Awesome video, those greens look very healthy. As far as the 'uneven' bottom watering, it may help that every time you replace it on the shelf after watering to flip it around each time so if there is a slight unevenness to the shelf, the tray getting turned will help even out the uneven water updraw. ❤🌱

[@jackybattle6788]

I appreciate the time and details you put in this video without over talking.

Nice bit of work - I used your video as to build our grow light system for my peppers and tomatoes, and now I'm ready to start my very first batch of micro greens. Nice production value and great closeups.

[@eric7397]

Everytime I start up my microgreen hobby, I come back to this video. The method has always worked for me. Except my wife told me to stagger the trays because we get so many microgreens we can't eat them fast enough.

[@bostonballertwenty]

Love the videos, Mandy. Thanks for sharing! Little trick I use to spread the seeds evenly are different sized glass spice jars with lids that are easily removed. I just clean, sterilize, and dry. I wouldn't recommend plastic as residual aromas linger. Some spice jars lids are more course than others and depending on the seeds, I just use different size holes in the lids. Also think they look cool in a spice rack and make for quick seeding :) Keep on growing on.

[@twitwicki1]

Thank you so much for taking the pains to do this complete process walk through for cabbage. This by far the best video I've seen on the subject and packed with useful information about the tools and process. This will be my second winter growing micro greens for home consumption and didn't have much success last year with the brassicas (except for mustard), so will give your process a try. I mainly have used hemp mats for the smaller seeds and Promix for the larger seeds like peas and sunflowers. I tried Coco Coir because it's a renewable resource, but didn't have great success with this medium. I can see that perhaps it's your watering technique that's the key, so I'll give it another try. Very much looking forward to more of your videos. Thanks again.

[@OnTheGrow]

Thank you so much for the support and the kind words, it really means a lot to us! Yeah we like using different mediums for different crops as well! For some reason, we just always seem to have really great results with Coco coir, but I’m excited to try out some more pro mix grows soon to compare against. If you ever have any questions, please don’t hesitate to ask!!

Hey guys that was awesome. By far the best microgreens walk through I’ve seen and I’ve watched a lot of videos on microgreens. So glad you guys are doing this for free when everyone else wants you to pay an arm and leg for the same information. You guys are just amazing people and I couldn’t say enough good things about you. You guys are helping so many people I hope you know that. I hope you will do more videos like this in the future that would be fantastic. I only have one question. About how many trays do you get out of that block of coir? Keep up the great work guys. Cheers 🍻. Congratulations on 2000 subscribers 🥳🎉

[@OnTheGrow]

Thank you so much Mark for the kind words, it really does mean a lot to us. We will have a lot more information coming all throughout 2020 and we're excited to hit the ground running... We felt the same way about a lot of the KZbin video's and the frustration of trying to get some solid answers and techniques... so we committed to sharing everything we learn openly that way people didn't have to go through the same frustration. Sharing it openly just seems like the right thing to do. As for how many trays you can get out of a single brick... if we use the shallow trays like in this video, we can get about 18 I think. If you use the 2.5" deep trays I would say 7-10 trays. Still, at ~$5.00 per brick, that is pretty good value! Thank you so much for the support!!

[@frangimenez4674]

@@SimonRichardMasters man, if you don't have the patience to watch a whole video then don't. SImple as that. Instead of stopping to critisize irrelevant technicalities you should be grateful they're giving away all of this very useful information for free

@@OnTheGrow Hi, just wanted to jump in on this thread to clarify your answer to Mark's question. You say about $5 per brick to fill 7 - 10 2.5" trays? Do you mean $25?

I’ve been researching micro greens and indoor gardening for a few days now, I want to do something good for my life partner who is heavily into more natural ways of living even though we’re currently stuck in the big city and he’s been eating a lot of trashy food lately. I’d just like to thank you for participating in my education on this subject; I want to buy him the means to start gardening again even with our limited means and terrible yard; it won’t be much at first, but I hope this becomes a beginning to a healthier, happier lifestyle with the one I love. I’d like to ask, if possible, please post more recipe videos. Your vegan burger was inspiring. Also, if you do any more growing tutorials for other kinds of crops, I’ll be returning for them.. I may be a city boy, (even if my love is closer to being a wood nymph, lol) but when I set my mind to really learning something, it’s damn near impossible to stop me. ❤️ Have a great day~

[@OnTheGrow]

Lol, sounds like we have the same drive when we set our minds to something! Yeah, we will get some more recipes together and add that to our video list! The great thing about microgreens is that you don't need a lot of space to grow some seriously amazing tasting and super healthy produce! It is perfect for people in the city really. They have such a fast growing rate and provide huge harvests... It's hard to avoid that junky food, so when we cheat and eat some, we just load it up with microgreens to make it "healthy" :) Thank you for the support!!

[@g.s.651]

On The Grow I have an update! 😊 So I decided I’d come back and share. I got a whole growing kit of supplies together and gave it to my partner as an early Valentine’s Day present. I’m happy to say that, because of this channel and other micro green growers who made encouraging guides and inspiring recipes, it was a success! My partner loved the Japanese daikon we grew! He said the earthy, slightly spicy flavor was really good, and he decided to have them in a salad. I felt almost like a proud parent, watching the little seeds sprout and grow like wildfire, it was so gratifying to know that we grew something good together! I also had my partner watch your videos, too, and we’re discussing plans to do more growing together both inside and outside. We’re even going to try making other things! It’ll be so fun! We just bought a bag of sunflower seeds for more micro greens and we’re going to be using a brand new tray to grow a nice big bunch of them. I hope they’re as yummy as you make them look in your guide videos, I’m so excited!!!

[@clintfisher]

Hi! Thanks for the inspiration and help in growing microgreens! The deer and rabbits kept eating my garden and I gave up. But I still had my nice LED sprouting box I had made. Thanks to you and other microgreen youtubers, my sprouting box, and my collection of grocery mushroom-trays waiting for re-use/recycle have gone to great use - providing two trays of sunflower greens per week that bulk up my salads. Now that I have a system down, I plan on increasing the rate and experimenting with different seeds. THANK YOU again for the great videos and knowledge that most certainly has helped me avoid pitfalls along the way. Keep up the great work!

Best video on growing micro greens! Very thorough and well explained. Great job! So do you not wash the micro greens at all after harvesting, or before sending to customers? That would be nice not to have to do that, and a huge timesaver.

[@OnTheGrow]

Thank you so much!! Correct, we do not wash... mainly because the wash/dry process shortens the life of the product considerably if it isn’t perfectly dry. During the drying process, most greens will lose their perkiness and begin to wilt. So we advise people to wash their own and put it on the packaging. Just makes it a lot easier for us and keeps the product fresh for longer

Yay! Thank you so much for your feedback and for watching 😁 So once we are done with the medium we toss it into our compost pile and either let it go back to the earth or we use it in our outdoor garden only. We never reuse the medium for microgreens just because it has a higher risk of having a pathogen which is not good!

Great Video, but I have a question about your lighting? Do you keep it on 24 hours a day or do you set it to a timer (like 12 on/12off or 16on/8off?) Thanks in advance for your help and for the high quality of your video!

[@OnTheGrow]

Thank you so much for the support!! We keep our lights on a schedule of: 17 hours ON 7 hours OFF That has worked well for us so far!

[@trevisaf]

Much appreciated for the quick response! Thanks again

Thanks for this video... You explained it beautifully... Subscribed... thanks again...

[@ronque23]

You guys pack in so much great knowledge in your videos. Thanks again. I was wondering how long do you typically refrigerate your crops after harvest before selling them? Also, do you put the recommended max storage time on your packaging when you sell (like a best if used by date)? Thx!

Hi, I'm from Malaysia. Love yr video so much. Yr video inspired me to start my own microgreen as now our whole country is in quarantine. My seed germinate after 2 days. But with a lot of fungus. If the soil keep to long time (maybe 2 years) will causes fungus?

[@OnTheGrow]

Hello! So glad you enjoy our videos and that they've been helping you during these times. Sorry it took so long for us to respond. That could be it, but it also could be over watering or not enough airflow where your growing them. Also if you seeded to densely that could be cutting off airflow as well and causing issues.

[@dedelim3607]

@@OnTheGrow thank you so much for yr reply. I will try again .

[@hoochung1928]

Finally found a video showing the full process and the reasoning behind each step in details. Have been experimenting with lots of failure. Great video :D. How do you handle mold during germination?

Love the heart. I was just thinking about trying designs using two types of radish. Great minds think alike!

[@OnTheGrow]

Thank you! Mixed trays are a lot of fun!! We used Carrots and Amaranth and it was a bit more challenging since they grow at such different rates. Using different types of radish would be a lot easier since they all have very similar rates of growth. Happy growing!

[@tweyland1971]

Try Rambo radish and red arrow. Both are gorgeous and they grow at similar rates.

[@zivkoradojcic]

thanks for great content! Have you ever tried to store microgreens in soil after full maturity?how long you can keep them like that and where? need more watering after?

Lol You guys are so funny. I am actually watching the video because of the sprouting. It is like icing on the cake to have an attractive lady.

[@lordpatrickgames234]

Great video I'm thinking and starting to doing that a home a question I have for you if I start a business how much will I charge for a bag like that that you showed us in the video in Ontario?

[@OnTheGrow]

Thank you so much for the support! I would charge a minimum of $20-25 per tray. It really depends on how you sell it. If you are selling it to a distributor/restaurant, sell bigger quantities for lower prices... if you are selling to individuals, it takes a lot more work, so we charge quite a bit more for that. Generally we try to get a very minimum of $20/tray.
