Trying to understand - difference between methods

[Guest guest]

Hi everyone. I really enjoy the conversation with this group and especially

enjoy Melody's little videos (smile).

I have watched your conversations for awhile now and have one question. It seems

like some of you sprout in a tray - hence the conversation about growing medium.

Is there some reason you prefer doing this over the Sprout Garden which doesn't

require a medium?

Also, for anyone who hasn't been able to find the Coir, I was at Ace Hardware

recently and they didn't have it in the store, but she looked it up and found

they have it in the local warehouse. It would arrive in a few days.

I even checked with the online website and they don't show it there - they told

me it is specific to each area which didn't make a lot of sense to me. At the

store, we looked at the ingredient list and it wasn't pure Coir though - there

were a few other ingredients listed. Are there different companies who make Coir

and does anyone know if there is a specific brand we need to get...if so, what

is the name brand you use? (This one did say " organic " though).

Thanks for your input!
