    after harvesting, can we reuse the soil with a new batch of seeds? or do we dispose and start with a clean tray?

    • @PassionCanopy

    Thank you very much for the information. Is it a good idea to plant a few seeds into an actual pot and grow it into a mature plant and harvest the additional seeds then? I think that would be a good way to save additional money and further increase self-reliance.

    • @squange20
      @squange20 Год назад +2

      You would need to sow seeds into small seedling pots, and when they are about three inches high, transplant into bigger pots (using potting soil and fertiliser) or into a prepared garden bed (weed free, dug out with good soil and fertiliser added). And of course the bigger plants need to be watered and fed regularly. So, if you have a small space or live in an apartment, micro greens are great to grow on a regular basis.

      Spinach takes like two weeks to germinate and will flower/bolt if it has too many hours of sunlight.

    Hello, is it recommended to have water on the bottom tray so the soil will absorb water and always stay moist? I have seen that you need to keep the leaves as dry as possible. Or will this be too much water at once. Thank you

    • @squange20
      @squange20 Год назад

      If the trays sit in a warm or humid room, no need to cover, but in a cool room it will help if you place a plastic bag on them until they germinate, and then remove the bag. They need light at all times but not direct sunlight.

      She said, “you should put them in the dark or they won’t grow!” Well I didn’t move them! Ha!
      & I only wish you could see how beautiful they are now. I started soaking them Saturday night so it’s day 5 today and they are r-e-a-d-y!
      I’m giving them just 1 more day though!!!
      I also didn’t cover except one day because it was extra dry in my house

    • @brockdelorenzo7505
      @brockdelorenzo7505 2 года назад

      Depends on the seed. Some need to be pressed down so the roots go south. They will grow either way. Being in the dark will make them get taller-seeking light. I cover mine for 3-4 days

    • @squange20
      @squange20 Год назад

      That will be for when you try to germinate seeds to grow outdoors. For micro greens, place the trays on a table or windowsill where there’s light but not direct sunlight.
