At first, Sunflower Microgreens are a somewhat challenging crop to grow, but mastering them is quite easy. In this ridiculously long Instructional video we cover everything you need to know - and a whole lot more - apparently.
We show growing with weight atop the seeds, and without - and grow in two different Trays - our small Stainless Steel Sprouter and a 5x5 plastic nursery tray.
We have tried for over a decade to make this particular Instructional film. Finally we have finished. I (Gil) apologize for the length. Despite the cost (your time viewing it =;-) I know you'll grow great crops after watching it.
We don't often (ever) respond to comments here. You can reach us through sproutpeople.org. We're ever-present there. Please be kind. Life would be a joy if everyone just followed the Golden Rule - - and we've been online since 1995 - so we're just done with BS - online and off.

Hi. First time I have watched your video. I couldn’t quite hear what your medium consisted of. I heard coconut?, and worm castings. I couldn’t hear the 3rd part of your mix at all. Thank you for sharing this video. Patty

@andreagauthier1698 4 месяца назад

I believe it’s 75% coconut coir and 25% worm castings

Great video ( i am a farmer, micro greens grower, dirt farmer, sprouter) and I learned from your expertise! Thank you.

@christinemose7308 Год назад

That was fun. Thank you for taking the time to document that process. The Ira sighting was a sweet bonus.

@JulieMelberg Год назад

Thank you! I haven't made these in years. I've been meaning to again. This helps to give me the inspiration I needed.

Hello from Manila, the Philippines. I am inclined to think that, instead of punctuating the time line with the same 12 hours later string. It might be more tactile mentally if these interstitials are marked additively, ie, 12 hrs, 24 hrs, 36 hrs, 48 hrs, 60 hrs, 72 hrs and so on and so on. Thanks a lot. You’re doing a good job.

Hello… This came up on my utube feed just in time. I love these. Is there certain kind of seeds for growing sprouts? The small batches are what I need to do. I’m so sorry for all the complaints in the comments People want you to keep seeing your vids they should be considerate. Great video thank you 🤩. Question. How do you make the kelp water??

@margaretmarshall3645 5 месяцев назад

Thank you! I love sunflower microgreens in my salads-crisp, succulent and tasty. They are so different from the sprouts I grow (broccoli or radish or onion) that it’s great to have BOTH to add to a salad.

Really good thanks, can't wait to try it!

@AndreaDingbatt 9 месяцев назад

Thank you very much, I have been thinking about growing microgreens as a small buisness for a while now.

Great tutorial! Why is the water brown? Much thx

@JT-ok6re 9 месяцев назад

First time watching your videos! I have enjoyed watching how you grow sprouts. I do have a question about you sprouting the popcorn and the sunflowers you eat those greens. If so do you add it to any other food or eat them by themselves?

@7277466ruby 7 месяцев назад

I grow these regularly on hemp

GEE mr. Wizzard........... if there is no fear then we dont need Governments do we?

@claudiareginaariaspaez1474 Год назад

Todo es perfecto, excepto el enorme desperdicio de agua...

@kd9601 11 месяцев назад

My thoughts exactly. Great tutorials but I do successfully grow healthy, lush, mold-free sunflower microgreens without having to run all that 💲🚰💲down the drain....🤔

@satanama1 Год назад

Which one is this stainless steel sprouter, the large (7,5 inches diameter) one or the smaller (6 inches) one?

@gabriellebeyler5286 6 месяцев назад

Have you done basil in the steel screen pan?

@jenniferhorsman9776 Год назад

Thank you for posting this! I've been struggling to get my sunflower seeds to sprout without soil in my stainless steel tray, but it seems soil is the way to go. I think I caught that 75% of the soil mixture was coconut coir, but I couldn't hear what the 25% was (cute dog squeaky toy in the background!) Could you please tell us what you said? Thanks!

@zeal78 Год назад

Correct yes, 75% coconut coir and 25% earthworm castings (4:1).

@jenniferhorsman9776 Год назад

@@zeal78 Thank you! Also, I had no idea the coconut coir would expand so much. Learning as I go along. The seeds I ordered from you so far seem much better quality than some I bought from another company.

What is in the water you pour on the plants? It is definitely a brown color.

@sonjo2419 5 месяцев назад

The seeds cause the water to brown.

@andreagauthier1698 4 месяца назад

Water with 1/2 to 1 teaspoon of kelp added.

@gabriellebeyler5286 5 месяцев назад

Do you ever worry about Ecoli or Salmonella?

@Tassie-Devil Год назад

Well, I can tell one thing right away: you are not on tank water at the end of summer! I never let that much water go down the drain - if I were rinsing and draining seeds like that (unlikely - except for buckwheat), I'd be draining them into a bucket to water my plants!
