I’ve recently started working on growing sprouts and found I’m also interested in micro greens as well.
I’m always looking for new things to eat and ways to grow them. Growing sprouts to add into salads seems like a great idea to me and if I chose I can pluck a few sprouts out to to put into small pots to be put into the garden later on.
The above set up is just a clam shell type plastic container that had cupcakes in it. I started soaking my lentals in it today. I have close to ten lbs of lentals so figured I’d start with them and move onto other things as I go if I like this and have decent results. This sits on top of my dehydrator for now.
Here is a fairly quick video showing how to sprout lentals. In case anyone is wondering about how to go about it. I’m still not really making my own videos but am getting set up to do so.
As I watched the next video I realized how easy it is to go from sprouts to micro greens. This guy gives a pretty good break down of how he grows his and gives names of places to source bulk seed from. You could also put your sprouts in a try and cover with a little soil and have micro greens from the sprouts.
Both of these ideas could help make sure you have enough interesting food to help out if your food budget is a little tight or just keep your salads interesting.
May your gardening efforts bring you good health and happiness.
