NO MILDEW! Perfect Pea Production

[@joyflg1rl]

Thank you so much for this clear, detailed video about peas. I love peas and sunflower microgreens so much, but they’re both the ones I have the most trouble with. I’m going to try switching to this technique for peas and see how it goes. I’m wondering if you already have a detailed video like this on sunflower microgreens, or if you would consider making one. I end up having a lot of mold problems or damping off happens and I lose half of my sunflower microgreens using the other methods I’ve tried. As always, thank you so much for all you share. You continue to inspire me so much! And I’m doing the thing! Which is so exciting and gratifying! Starting to feed myself and feed others too, and to inspire them to try it. It’s so cool!

Awesome! You rock!

Great Video on this topic Mike. We enjoy watching you on the big TV. My whole family is learning how to grow food together.

[@KeepOnGrowin]

Thanks brother. Keep up the great work.

[@hummingwind8869]

Mike, I am back to you. Thank you for the easy grow videos. You rock 🤩

[@kellylynnbrowne947]

Totally thank you for this! My peas grew but kept getting mold, and I gave up.

[@zacpackman9186]

thanks for the return to easy and affordable mike love it

[@pathanada4957]

Loved your video. I liked that you showed the DIY technique as well as gave us the link for the fancy ones.

[@ThriveFitnessBoston]

Easy and affordable! That was the line that revealed this is the perfect place for me!👏🏽

[@KeepOnGrowin]

Awesome! Welcome!

Thanks Mike.

[@hopesellers1031]

Thank you! This is the first video I have seen of you. I really enjoyed it!❤

[@KeepOnGrowin]

Thank you very much and welcome aboard!

[@ShelleyhitzTV]

Easy and affordable is for me!

[@mssavedin92]

fantastic. Looks like you only need about an inch of water in the bottom once the roots grow down?

[@deborahtemptingtanglesdesi1511]

always love your new ideas !!!

[@1961Lara]

This is a great channel. Thank you for you work!!

[@1961Lara]

Love those trays!

[@ShelleyhitzTV]

I just watched this again and took notes because my first peas started to smell and I had to throw them out. I followed a different tutorial that said to spray them. I will be trying your method of rinsing them and them bottom watering instead next time.

[@KeepOnGrowin]

Let me know how it goes. What peas are you using?

[@ShelleyhitzTV]

@@KeepOnGrowin I purchased dried whole green peas from Azure Standard in a 5 pound bag. Their site says they can be used for sprouting.

[@Sewjourner]

Thank you!

[@bowtielife]

So, you know I'm a bit of a slow walk on these things. Every time you grow some of these microgreens it is just so freaking impressive! I still think I like the sand idea the best. This just looks so freaking easy though!

[@KeepOnGrowin]

Once you get the hang of it, it's like riding a bike. Easy, peasy...and tasty.

[@Patso65]

Very informative Mike, I learn from you practically every video, you put out. I'm going to order these growers, through your link, this weekend. By the way, who do you order your pea shoots from?. There are so many choices. Thanks again, take care and God bless.

[@KeepOnGrowin]

Thanks. I got these on Amazon from Sprout House. Free shipping.

[@BecomingMoreSelfSufficient]

Great video thank you so much. I guess I have the most problems doing peas and sunflowers! Wondering, can you also grill Microgreens in these containers?

[@KeepOnGrowin]

Yes, I am testing more.

[@ourtinygarden]

Amazing video Mike! You're the best! I usually use hemp mats as my grow medium but sometimes the water can get a little smelly if I dont change the it (I use a self watering wick system) do you know why this is?

[@KeepOnGrowin]

Pretty much any water that sits with organic matter in it will start to get funky.

[@All_Things_Digital]

What other items can you grow in those containers?

[@KeepOnGrowin]

All kinds of microgreens.

[@Grateful_Grannie]

Pretty sure you can get 3 harvests from pea shoots. Worth a shot!

[@LifePrepared]

Do you keep water in the bottom tray all the time or only when the roots start?

[@KeepOnGrowin]

When the roots start

[@jujube2407]

Fun new trays moke😊

[@dawnwhitehead]

Great idea. What is the name of the grow basket product please? I could not find it on Amazon. Thank you.

[@hollyheather6261]

[@raindiamonds1925]

Thanks Mike! This looks like a great idea for pea sprouts, but I'm guessing that smaller seeds like radish or broccoli would fall through the holes. What could we use for the smaller seeds?

[@emmasurf8109]

He probably has a better idea but I use a mason jar with a square of muslin cloth over top and rinse and drain 2x a day. You don't get the nice uniform look because t your shaking them up but they sprout properly.

[@KeepOnGrowin]

Radish are big enough and I am testing kale now.

[@thecrowuknow]

I have the same containers and the instructions that came with them said to use paper towel if the seeds were smaller than the holes. I haven't tried it though as I've only sprouted mung beans so far.

[@gloriaelliott7872]

Mike I love that made some out the Ramen tray what is the name of the one you get off of Amazon want to get some of those to Thank Mike you are awesome dude ❤

[@KeepOnGrowin]

Thank you Gloria. I have the link in the description, I think it was microgreen grow tray.

[@marcellasmith8942]

do you add water to the bottom tray or is that water what has dripped off of the top tray

[@KeepOnGrowin]

When the roots get long enough, you stop rinsing and just bottom water

[@marcellasmith8942]

@@KeepOnGrowin so before that, do you add water to the bottom tray or is that just a collection tray until the roots are long enough

[@KeepOnGrowin]

@@marcellasmith8942 it's just drainage

👍👍‼️

[@1961Lara]

Do you use grow lights?

[@KeepOnGrowin]

Yes, but I also grow outdoors when the weather is nice.

[@diva555sg]

Why do you need to wash the 2nd day tray & add water to the bottom tray? It should not be different than growing beansprout; top drain to bottom.

[@KeepOnGrowin]

I only add to the bottom when the roots can reach. I do empty and clean it every day, less chance of funky stuff.
