I would love to see an actual tutorial on how to organize the customer order process combined with the growing schedule. I imagine it can get kinda confusing or difficult to keep track of everything. Actually seeing how it is done is the only way I seem to grasp complicated concepts. Thanks for the content.
I love your video man, Great content! Really like how detailed and organized you are with your microgreens business. I’m learning a lot. Great professor! 👍🏾
I’ve heard about micro greens for awhile but just now about to try my hand at growing some. I was actually wishing I could find information such as your growing guide. So thank you, thank you, thank you! I’ve watched several of your videos and find them very useful. So thanks again.
Really appreciate your videos they are ao helpful. Do you have any videos on what you typically charge restaurants for microgreens and do you use yhe same containers you use at your farmers markets for the restaurants?
I'm just learning about microgreens and I love everything I'm watching so far. Almost everything I find if from a year or more ago, anything more recent?
Thank you so much for sharing all this great information. Great work!! Keep up these great videos, I really like the How To guides for each crop as well, so detailed. I'm excited about this grow guide PDF as well, awesome! Thank you. FYI your Bootstrap Farmer tray links are broken.
Thank you for the excellent content. Is there any way we could get you to do a video on setting up your customer spreadsheet or database? Do you use order numbers? How do you associate the client with the order number? Can you look back through the year and see what sold the best? The worst? How much did Mrs. Jones buy last year compared to this year? Do you do any of that or is this sort of thing simply not necessary? Thanks for all you do for us.
Hello. I have just recently started my microgreens business (thanks in part to your channel!). I appreciate all of the time you put into your vids. You’ve asked for content ideas. I’m having a hard time wrapping my head around how to figure out the pricing tiers (ie broccoli vs nasturtium). I would think that there should be 2 levels (regular vs premium grows). However, there is a huge gap between nasturtium and chrysanthemum (~$25/tray and ~$10/tray (I drew a line of anything less than $9/tray is a regular pricing schedule, GT $9 is premium))Could you explain how you determine pricing? Joe
Thank you, I really love your content, been doing a lot of research. Your system is Exactly what I was looking for. I am starting now, my goal is to be in full operations in November.👍❤️😎
Thank-you for gifting us! I follow your growing guides and it has worked very well for me.so my question is... all of a sudden I have about two farmers markets starting June 11th... I’m doing each one , every other week..... they in turn connected me to a,” local web food online resource....in my area, micros are a sought after produce. I know it sounds silly, but how much packaging do I need? I ordered a 100 from the source you gave us... I love their product...I can tell you right now, not enough...how much should I grow and count on for my first Farmers market? I would like to see your set up at an actual Farmers market! 😊you are helping so many of us!
We can usually sell 70-100 2oz containers every farmers market but we are in a pretty good demographic near Princeton. Ritzy with a lot of knowledge about super foods. Our farmers market season is hitting next month as well. I’ll be doing a video at the market soon!
Thank-you! Oh my gosh...I need to do much more ordering...thank-you for all the business side of things...one thing to grow, another to make it a business.
Thank you! What happens when not all your microgreens sell at the market? I have been looking into selling and harvesting them in front of customers as it may look more appealing and if I don't sell everything I still have a bit of time as they're still living.
When we have a lot left, we donate them to the local culinary high school here. But we usually sell out most of the time or have a very small amount extra in which we eat ourselves!
Love the content keep it coming I’m glad I found you off Reddit! I’d love to see you run a deep water culture no medium on a screen like that ihg grow guy
Your videos are the best! Thank you! Have a question on this one.... some micros are ready for harvest in 7 days and some take 20! The real scheduling challenge comes there. We do not have farmer markets in India... i supply directly to homes on a daily basis. Any scheduling guide for that would help.
95% of your crops will grow in 8-10 days which makes for pretty easy planning… the other very small handful of crops, we splash in here and there. You’ll never grow every crops all at once. We had a variety of 35 crops we grew but only grew 7-8 kinds weekly and rotated out some specials. Don’t kill yourself with planning by trying to grow everything at once. Just throw some longer grows on the shelf for 2-3 weeks from now and when they are done.. they are done. Mix them in with your other 8-10 day harvests.
@@PrincetonMicrogreens Great! And thank you for the promptness! Yes, most do harvest in under 2 weeks. Shall bring in intermittent sowing of others without as much worry as i have right now!!!
We are always keeping an eye on deals. Perlite is overkill for microgreens in our opinion, so if you scrap that, you should be able to get ahold of coir for $10 a block. We got ours at Walmart for a while but they seem to be out of stock at the moment. Amazon just had some bit 11lb blocks on sale for $15 a piece. I picked up about 100 blocks. Should be good for the year.
A quick question if I could.... On the PDF it has a column called "Grow Time" and this column mostly says "10 days". Is this the total time eg. 10 days includes 5 days of germ and black out? Or is it 10 days plus the germ and blackout?
@@sarahhurley3750 they are good at designing.. but terrible at data entry, lol. I always have to go back and correct everything 10 times over again. 🤦🏻♂️
@@PrincetonMicrogreens if you did it on google sheets there is a simple trick you can do, here is a RU-vid video i just looked up for you. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-aDXYp3qmqm8.html
@@PrincetonMicrogreens makes sense, well if you have the data in google sheets its super easy to alphabetize columns or even selected boxes. I just did a search on RU-vid and fond out how to do it. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-aDXYp3qmqm8.html
Taking a break. Was diagnosed not to long ago it a pretty severe brain tumor so I stepped away from the business for a while for brain surgery and some time to get back to a good place both mentally and physically. We appreciate all your support. Hope to be back soon.
Don't know how I bumped onto this. Anyway Damn good video 🤩🤩🤩. I also have been watching those similar from mStarTutorials and kinda wonder how you guys create these stuff. MStar Tutorials also had cool information about similiar things on his vids.
A talking head video for a how to is not the way to go, it would have been more valuable to actually screen record and show people what you do and explain it, a how to is basically a tutorial! There's a lot of unnecessary rambling going on with your videos, it good to see you proactive but my god be direct and if something is how to, if you were in IT for years then actually get on a computer and show people how to, it's a how to right? Not a let me explain my thought process video ... This video is a fail.
