How to grow microgreens at home - From start to finish

[@oldgold5848]

Alex depending on how low you cut your peas, you may be able to get a second crop off them, also harvest with scissors you will be able to cut lower on the radish and broccoli and get more weight. Coriander problem due to sowing too densely for a longer growing crop.

[@CB-xr1eg]

You beat me to it, I was thinking that a large pair of scissors would be better for harvesting.

[@j.s.1270]

Persian shears (scissors with raised handles) might be a good idea to use for harvesting.

For mold problem, you can pierce an oregano oil capsule and mix with water and spray. It is a natural anti fungal. I have done this when I grew wheatgrass indoors.

Thanks for the tip!

[@she-ra3260]

To clarify, OOO isn't solely essential oil, but a combo with a carrier oil for desired potency. EOs = ultra concentrated + Oregano is a "hot" oil. Def burn/kill everything in pure form. Look for garden of life's organic capsules. Safe, organic & transparent brand. Solid tip to ward off mold tho. Thanks! Been wondering if neem or food grade H2O2 would be effective. OOO seems like great option

Hi! Alex! If Coriander tastes like soap to some people then they have a different genetic variation of the receptor OR6A2. So it’s in their genes that coriander tastes like soap to them! Super interesting stuff!

[@valeriehart4634]

Hey Alex. So many suggestions already - I hate to annoy you with another. BUT the solution to your mold problem is actually Hydrogen Peroxide. I took a professional microgreens course where they got very detailed about everything, right down to the ppm and pH of the water you are using. But one of the main things they emphasized was massive use of Hydrogen Peroxide on EVERYTHING to prevent any mold. Keep in mind that growing microgreens is more like a lab experiment - cleanliness matters. Unlike outdoor gardening where things are expected to be a bit dirty. The coco coire is already fairly inert when it is brand new, but all trays, compression boards and even your hands should be sprayed down with H2O2. (Anyone concerned about using it should know it is simply water, with an extra oxygen molecule.) So after sanitizing your hands and all trays and tools, you would actually spray a round of the H2O2 on top of your tray just after spreading your seeds. It does not affect flavor or edibility. You can also use it to spot treat a tray of plants when you have an outbreak. They recommend "Food Grade" which you can buy at a hydroponics store, but honestly I just use a sprayer bottle of it straight from the first aid section of my Walmart. Hope this helps ! ❤ Love watching your videos on all subjects. Keep em coming !

Well done, Alex! This year, I'm experimenting with micro greens too, and I've sprouted tomatoes and herbs for my balcony garden under a grow lamp. Can't wait for your gardening videos!

[@buraksevimli5072]

while micro-greens are obtained from almost all vegetables, greens, 'seed-nutrients' such as 'amaranth and quinoa'; Microgreens should not be grown from vegetables from the 'night climbers' family. Because the 'microgreen' forms of such plants can be toxic and poisonous. Some specimens of this family also include vegetables such as tomatoes, eggplant, potatoes and peppers.

[@ms.farmgirl]

BRILLIANT!! A 25 THUMBS UP Video!!! Alex, each of these videos are getting better and better. WELL DONE! I love how you really research and learn ways of doing things. You have become a traveler, researcher, farmer/ agriculturist/ horticulturalist/ gardener, a chef, and a businessman, in less than a year. Your extensive way of living in all directions [spherically] is very impressive for a young guy. [1] On our farm we grow organic microgreens all year, because we sell them to restaurants and at farmers markets. In the USA it is rare to find a shop that carries them because of heavy government food restrictions. Mold spore issues. We take the orders, cut them and they pop by to pick them up. Our biggest sellers are Alfalfa, Radish, bean sprouts, Cabbage, Celery, Parsley, Cilantro, Cress,, Kale, Mustard, and about 20 others that are popular in our area. We only grow what is in demand. Chervil, Chard, and Coriander is only grown when it is specifically requested by someone. I think you would love Cress & Alfalfa Microgreens. FYI - The little seed HULLS will come off if you rinse and drain [ until dry on towel ] the sprouts before serving them on the plate. [2] For our home use, I have a rack with quart sized jars that lay on their sides. They have twist on lids that are screens. I soak the seeds for a day, drain them, and each day I rinse & drain them. No soil is involved at all. After they are sprouted I put them in little refrigerator containers and they last a couple of days. [3] On our farm we use a thin layer of seed starter soil that is sifted, we don't use trays to press them down while sprouting, We simply put on clear domes over each tray until the sprouts are up, then take them off. We don't use grow lights for sprouting, we only use the sun in the greenhouses. Sprouts are not that particular. They just like any kind of light source to give them energy. [4] We don't harvest with knives. We use long blade shears/scissors for clipping them in large sections. So we have no waste. Knives seem to have lots of waste involved. When you use a shear/scissor, it seems to squeeze the root ends shut so they last a little longer. It's like they are cauterized. [5] It's also important to keep your tools sterilized. We clean our shears between trays. We spray them with alcohol, then rinse them in fresh waster between trays. We never use them from 1 tray to the next without cleaning between trays. We also wear gloves and keep the work area completely clean. Too much in the surrounding areas can be contaminates of the air. [6] The fact you keep records, and figure out cost of production is very impressive also. You're such a businessman. [7] Your cooking looks amazing. You really do have that "CHEF" quality down. Try Ricotta and Fresh Pea sprouts on toast. Or Ricotta, with Mushy peas and Pea Sprouts on top. Very nice. I love love love microgreens on sandwiches & salads. [8] My entire family are really enjoying these videos. You keep surprising everyone with how far you go to be adventurous and learn/try new things. Your parents should be so proud of you with your ventures. They raised very good sons! We can't wait for the gardening videos to get posted. SORRY I made this so long again. I'm a "sharer" and love sharing and helping others. It's my nature.

For larger seeds, try growing them in vermiculite gravel. You can pull the whole plant instead of cutting them and the vermiculite helps with water retention without any worry of mold or bacteria while also not clinging to the plant like the choir does.

76 year old from Oz here and absolutely loving all your videos - so interesting and super professional quality. You should've heard all my expletives when I watched your Slovenia mountain cabin video! That scenery was !#*%! Re: Cilantro 1 - some people carry a gene that makes it taste soapy and sadly, I'm one of them. 2. Cilantro is particularly susceptible to mould but an easy way to prevent it is to create air flow - I'm a keen gardener (and mushroom hunter) and a tiny fan works wonders. Also try to find really shallow trays so that your growing medium is level with the top - or just fill those you have to the brim. Air movement also makes for stronger growth. 3. Always disinfect your trays between use together with all equipment like knives and scissors. Cheap hydrogen peroxide is ideal. Have never seriously thought about growing microgreens, but you've inspired me! 👩‍🌾❤🦘

I went overboard with fist micro green and grew them over 75gal fish-tank with window netting. had tones of bubblers basically making small mist on the surface acting a lost like aquaponic / aeroponic thing anyway it made the roots even taste good kept from getting mushy roots . They could be pulled straight through the screen. I’ve also used a floating quartz mister. Both on a timer keeps a good air to water cycle. You don’t necessarily need a fish tank. however large fish tanks go on sale at petsmart regularly. I’ve also gotten away with not needing a filter if it’s a living tank and keeping growing algae. With the right fish and balance it’s low maintenance, especially since roots will be helping the water quality.
