Re: First time sportier

 I am fairly new and I'd think that a 3 seed or 5 seed group would be nice to

sprout together.  I like the clover, alfalfa and radish.  Then adding broccoli

and I can't think what the other one is is also nice.  You can do it in a Mason

jar with a  mesh lid or get a sprouter with 3 or 5 trays and then can can put

some in each tray for a series of days and have soemthing going on all the

time.  Melody does a lot of microgardening with sunflowers and pea sprouts. 

We have talked about broccoli sprouts having some anti-inflamatory power.  Then

there is the neat taste of onion chives, garlic chives and a few things like

that.  They are a little more expenive but just need a few to spark up a sprout

tray.    I'll leave you to the others now as they know so much more than I

do.  I havne't tried the microgardens yet but hope to start on Monday.  I have

to start my sprouts again and need to sterilize my sprouter.  I have some

Aerogardens, too to

grow inside (lettuces (leaf), herbs andsupposed to besome flowers but those are

slow.  I plan to plant some tomatoes on Monday.  does a lot of outside

gardening in vertical pots and container gardening.  EW is an expert in lots of

things.  We have people on here from all over the place.  Good luck to you.

Hey gang

About to start on this whole sprouting adventure. Just trying to figure out what

equipment and which seeds I should start with. I will add that I do garden and

also I'm vegan/ whole foods and make everything from scratch so I'm used to

putting in some time with stuff. I'd like to grow some micro greens.

So what do you recommend as a good place to start ?

Welcome, Deb-glad you joined us. Many of us grow microgreens, sprouts,

hydroponics, aeroponics and do regular gardening, so you came to the right

place. Here is a video I made of a simple way to make microgreen sunflowers,

and Melody also has a lot of videos of various methods. Here is the link to

mine:

This is how I do it now!!

Take 6 frozen bananas all chunked up. One tablespoon of peanut butter, 3

teaspoons of stevia, one big tablespoon of unsweetened cocoa powder, a dash of

vanilla, and I add a splash of milk (can be half and half, skim milk, soy milk

(any kind of milk), maybe 3 tablespoons.

Then add 2 or 3 ice cubes.

Put lid on. Turn on, turn to variable 10, switch left switch to high.

Take you tamper and PRESS DOWN HARD ON ALL FOUR SIDES. It will be noisy as h.

Then when it makes a certain noise and you see 4 mounds inside the Vitamix.

YOu are then done!!!
