One of the issues I’m running into with microgreens is the HUGE harvests are much more than Gina and I can eat. It’s a lot of food. So, I am attempting to grow smaller batches of mixed micros. This is my first attempt. All grows I do are no-medium, no substrate grows using water-soluble fertilizer to support better nutrient density. I hope you enjoy the video!

Hydroponic Gardening & More with Brent

This is pretty genius.
What's the amount of ounces or grams of the peas and sunflowers you plant?
This is the idea that has made me want to try microgreen growing. I want to grow food for myself and avoid shopping for salad stuff I have to worry will go wrong before I use it
is it hard to clean the screens?
Wow those peas looks so leafy and "friendly"! Whenever i make pea shoots, they have gnarly heavy knit tendrils, not that much flat leaves. What type is it? Did you handpick the sunflower shells or do they come off by shower of water?
Are these grown with flowing aquaponics under the roots?
So do you know if that insect screen you're using for the smaller seeds could have any toxins, like BPA and stuff?
Your theme music plays in my head throughout the day and makes me laugh.
Awesome, Brent! Thanks for sending the pdf with the recipe for your anti-fungal spray. I'm starting to experiment with smaller batches in a smaller stacked container system I made from lunch meat containers that emulates your system. Poked a zillion holes in the bottom of one container with a soldering iron for the "mesh" tray. (My big trays arrive tomorrow!) I'm also saving cost in the beginning while I'm learning the process by using peas from the health food store. So far germination has tested really high, and the cost is fraction of commercial seed peas. The health food store is a great way to try different veggies for shoots for very little money. Thanks for sharing and inspiring.
great vid!
Great video. I need to watch more of your stuff Brent. So little time in the day now though!
Wow, those are huge. I may try to add some nutrients to my micros after they get established. Good job!
Love the videos on microgreens! A few questions if you don't mind, what brand of nutrient are you using? What ph are you keeping it at? What are you using for an antifungal?
I like that idea better. More variety in the same space!
That was a great idea! Now you have three kinds of micro greens, which variety is always great. 😊
I bought the 5×5 planters enough for a 10×20 tray and plant small batches for my personal use
Great idea. I never thought of this. Wonderful idea
It sure is tricky getting certain ones to germinate at the same time,,I saw you timed it quite well Brent.
Plenty of tucker in the final batch,,,you did really well with the timing.
Hope the family likes them.
Happy Gardening
Marty
Ahhh mate.. your very inspiring!
Did you use a nutrient for the grow ? Just interested because —–>
I bought the wrong hydroponics nutrient for my kratky systems. They pushed a organic product on me that causing my watercress to do nothing …lol ! Just be very green.
Im going to try your method for a couple of trays if i get the nutrient.. As always mate "great vid".
I hope your kids enjoyed them 😊
Great addition to the microgreens genre on YouTube!
That's they way to do it! "The Goldilocks Tray". Not too much, not too little, just right. Brilliant! Nice that you are having the family over! Enjoy! I started some lettuce and some flowers in a long (under the bed storage kind) clear container outside. Not Cucumbers…not yet Wilson! LOL
Very smart way of growing microgreens. I need to get a few of those trays.
That was awesome Brent! Loved the " LITTLE BITTY" voice! those sprouts are absolutely beautiful! Thank you so much for sharing this video!
This is awesome, mate! You rock. Cheers from Czechia 🙂
the peas and sunflowers will get more woody if not harvested on time, but you can harvest and store up to two weeks in frig
happy paddy's day
New sub. Great channel. Long time indoor grower here….new to micros. Perpetual planting and gardening. Nice move. 😁
You've got a great system going. Once you figured out how much to plant according to how much you'll eat it's going to be all systems go!:-) i just hope your kids like them lol but i think they will. Enjoy your movies👍
How neat Brent
Learning so much from your channel, thanks for sharing
Thanks for sharing the experiment, Brent! Hope the kids enjoy the greens…. and the marathon. 🙂
Awesome Brent, your filling my head with so many ideas. Thanks for showing………..Jim👍
