Always Having Fresh Microgreens Available
05 Dec 2023
00:13:15
The topic of this podcast is a listener request. Silver asked, "Could you do a podcast on how to stagger your microgreens in the best way so you always have fresh ones on hand." Great question! In this podcast, I give my thoughts on how to stagger your growing schedule so you have fresh microgreens on hand when needed. There are many different factors, and each person will have differing requirements. So there is not one perfect answer. But there are several things you can do to schedule planting your microgreen trays. Don't forget, you can always grow more than you need and gift the extra to people that you think would appreciate them, or need them. Being kind and generous is always the best.
Here are my thoughts to the best ways to grow microgreens. None of them are novel ideas, but the workflow produces awesome microgreens. If you have other ideas, or products you would like me to test, please email me at todd@homemicrogreens.com and let's see what we can do. If you have any feedback, you can also email me. If you find the information in this podcast, or any of the other 48 useful, please consider supporting the podcast so I can continue to make improvements to the workflow and recommended products and methods. See below. All of the products discussed in the podcast can be found in the Home Microgreens Store. Click the link here to see all of my germination methods. Show notes for this episode can be found here.
In this episode of the Microgreens Podcast, I discuss the soil, growing media, and fertilizer trials or tests I have performed and written about. I run growing tests of different growing media against each other to see which does the best. Here are the products I've tested.

How to Keep Seeds Fresh: The Best Way to Store Seeds
02 Mar 2023
00:20:09
In this episode of the microgreens podcast, I discuss the best way to keep seeds. Many people and organizations recommend freezing seeds. I do not think this is a good idea because there are risks. However, there are many recommendations all seed growers, brokers, retailers, and organizations do agree on. The best recommendations are mentioned in the podcast and the show notes found at HomeMicrogreens.com/39

How Much Microgreens Will a Tray Produce? Microgreens Yield Per Tray
21 Feb 2023
00:14:55
I was asked how much microgreens can I expect from a tray? The answer depends on many environmental factors. Too many unknowns for me to predict what you will harvest. However, I can give you some average yields from my trays of microgreens so you have some idea. In this podcast I tell you my average microgreen yield per tray, you can listen to the podcast to find out or go to the show notes on Home Microgreens. If you found this and other episodes of the Microgreens Podcast helpful consider supporting the show.
Here is the equipment I use during the weighted and buried blackout and how I modify the equipment and trays depending on the temperatures in my grow area.
I made a mistake to what Buzzsprout was doing with their support page and well, you will get it when you listen to the episode. The podcast will discuss the microgreens that you should be growing, but probably aren't based on the seed sales that come across my desk. I would appreciate it if you would subscribe and support the Microgreens Podcast. Subscriptions will up the priority of the podcast over the 100's of other things I need to do at Home Microgreens.

Seed Density: How to Find the Right Amount of Seed for Any Size Tray
31 Jan 2023
00:15:15
Having the right seed density for your microgreen tray is one of the three most important aspects of growing microgreens. In the past, it was a crap shoot if the seeding density was correct. There was so much conflicting and vague information on the internet. I have developed two microgreen seed density calculators that work with any size tray for (currently) 40+ varieties (more will be added). The calculators use slide bars to adjust to your tray size, and the seed density changes as the bars move. The output is either gram or volumetrically in teaspoons, tablespoons, or quarter cups, depending on the microgreen variety. Listen to the podcast for more information. Show notes can be found on HomeMicrogreens.com And the calculators can be found here: In the US: Seed Density Calculators Everywhere else: Seed Density Calculators International
In this episode of the Microgreens Podcast I discuss how to get started with microgreens. Where to grow microgreens. What equipment you need to grow microgreens. How much light you need to grow microgreens. What microgreen varieties to grow first. Where to get guides and videos on how to grow microgreens. You can read the rest of the show notes at Home Microgreens. Other links referenced in the podcast. Free Microgreen Growing Guide Microgreen Seed Calculator Episode 32 Microgreens Podcast Easiest Microgreens to Grow
In the previous episode of the Microgreens Podcast I discussed the 17 easiest microgreens to grow. In this episode, I want to touch on the 7 microgreens beginners shouldn't try to grow first. We want beginner microgreen growers to have a quick win and instant success. Chances are if they try to grow the 7 microgreens in this podcast they will run into problems. Problems are discouraging and might cause the new grower to quit. Save these 7 microgreen varieties for later, once you've grown a few of the easy microgreens, you can give one of these 7 a try! Show notes for this podcast can be found here.
Here is my list and reasoning behind the 17 easiest microgreens to grow. Not all of the easiest microgreens to grow are the first microgreen for a beginner, but all of these varieties can be grown without too many problems if you follow my order. My order is listed at the end of the episode. You can find article referenced and the show notes by going to HomeMicrogreens.com/32 Seed for all of the microgreens discussed in the episode can be found in the Home Microgreens Store at competitive prices with fast shipping and top-notch customer service.

I use four methods to germinate microgreens. These are: Weighted Blackout Method Buried Blackout Method Domed Blackout Method Hybrid Blackout Method The most common method to germinate microgreens is the weighted blackout method. For most microgreens I use this method. For larger seeds, or microgreens that have a hard time shedding their hulls I use the buried method. When you grow beets and Swiss chard microgreens the buried method will remove most of the stubborn seed hulls. I also use this method for large seeds as the microgreens are usually much taller and the buried method seems to produce stronger roots. It also helps prevent the seeds from drying out during germination. The domed method is reserved for thin-stemmed microgreens like amaranth and most smaller tender mustards. The hybrid method is a combination of the weighted blackout method and the domed method. It helps sunflowers lose their hulls and short growing microgreens like arugula grow taller before they are placed under lights. For more information on these 4 methods, I have written articles and created videos that should the process. You can find links to each article here on HomeMicrogreens.com, or go to homemicrogreens.com/31a
There are 3 main reasons I grow microgreens for myself. Of course there is the nutritional & health benefits. Second is the fresh flavor that microgreens add to my meals. The last reason is they are fun to grow! I enjoy seeing their quick growth. Even more to the point, I love growing different varieties of microgreens. Sometimes it's a challenge, but everyday something changes. Try growing different varieties of microgreens, even if in small trays. Small trays are a great and inexpensive way to experience new growing methods, new flavors, and benefit from different vitamins and minerals.
When choosing a microgreen tray, there are several factors to consider, such as the tray's size, shape, and depth. Some of these dimensions are non-negotiable; for others, a variety is essential. In episode 28 of the Microgreens Podcast, I discuss these factors and outline the must-haves and those you should consider having multiple sizes.
In this episode of the Microgreens Podcast, I talk about all the ways you can use microgreens. There are many ways to use microgreens; everyone has seen them as garnishes or salad toppings. But that is only the tip of the iceberg. Not only can microgreens be used raw as toppings, but they can be used as ingredients in other foods and drinks. They can be made or added to smoothies and fruit or vegetable juices. Instead of basil, some microgreens can be turned into pestos or guacamole. I'm not going to list all the ways here; that is why I created the podcast. If you want more information on how to use microgreens, visit Home Microgreens for more!

There are so many light options for growing microgreens you can drive yourself crazy trying to choose the best one. In this episode of the Microgreens Podcast, I'll tell you that there is no best one light. Choosing a light depends on what you attend to grow, your budget, and how you want to mount them above your microgreens. Click this link for more show notes and links to the recommended lights in the podcast. For most people, LED shop lights with a Kelvin (K) rating above 5,000 will be more than enough light. These lights are easy to set up with very little hassle and grow microgreens just fine. On the other hand, LED grow lights take more trial and error, and there are other factors that you need to consider, such as the mounting height above the trays and what you plan on putting above the lights if anything. In most cases, LED grow lights must be hung from the ceiling, not on a shelf. While LED shop lights produce little heat and are used in a rack system with no trouble.

In this episode of the Microgreens Podcast, we discuss the reason to grow microgreens all year round, including the summer months when there are so many fresh veggies coming out of the garden. We have four main reasons.
Insect pests
Garden Space
Flavor
Enjoyment
and probably one I should have included separately but did discuss is time. You can visit the show notes by clicking here or going to homemicrogreens.com/024.
In this episode of The Microgreens Podcast, we discuss the common insect pests of microgreens and provide solutions to prevent and eliminate them. There are 3 common pests that bother microgreens grown in the home. These include aphids, whiteflies, and fungus gnats with the last being the most common. In the podcast and show notes, we provide preventative measures and solutions to eliminate these pests. Show notes can be found at homemicrogreens.com/023
Watering microgreens seems like a simple enough task, but I receive 100's of emails with people having issues with their microgreens. Most of the time, it's a watering issue. So in this episode of the Microgreens Podcast, we explain our methods and philosophy of when to water and how much water to give microgreens based on the tray size. There is a related article that discusses water with more in-depth information. The article is titled How to Water Microgreens - We Find This To Be The Best Way. Show notes can be found at Watering Microgreens - When and How Much. Or HomeMicrogreens.com/022
Do microgreens regrow after cutting? The answer is it depends. Some will easily regrow, others are more difficult, and most will not regrow to the point that they are worth harvesting. Take a listen to this podcast and see which microgreens will regrow after cutting. Special care is also required for those microgreens that will regrow. We discuss all of this and more in this episode of the Microgreens Podcast. You can get a copy of the Home Microgreens Quick Guide to Growing Microgreens by clicking this link.

The topic of this episode is taken from Answer the Public. We randomly chose a topic from the 700+ questions presented by the website and answered it from the top of my head. We discuss how to grow microgreens cheap, or a better choice of words is how to grow microgreens inexpensively. We go through all of the equipment and supplies you need to grow microgreens and the best way to do this on the cheap. Take a listen.
I always wondered how much microgreen seed is too much. So my philosophy is that I want to grow the best microgreens for each tray size and not grow just stems. In this episode of the Microgreens Podcast, we discuss the planting density of micro-lettuce. Usually, in the winter, I grow lettuce indoors as baby leaf. But several people have asked me about the planting density for micro-lettuce. So I planted some trays with the amount of seed that popular websites suggest and others at much less density. This podcast summarizes the results. Using lettuce as an example, it appears that many people are throwing money away by over-seeding their microgreen trays. Using less seed can be more economical for those that grow microgreens at home for their own use. Even though the experiment uses lettuce, more than likely, it will apply to other microgreens as well. Of course, Home Microgreens will test this theory. That's what we do! You can find show notes at homemicrogreens.com/018.
In Episode 15 of the Microgreens Podcast, we grew microgreens on bamboo and hemp mats as well as on soil. We noticed that the trays affected the growth of the microgreens grown on mats. In this episode, we use different trays to see if we can correct the effects. Bamboo grow matting will grow decent microgreens if enough light is given to the whole plant and liquid fertilizer is applied when watering. The two associated articles can be read by clicking the links below. Article 1 Microgreen Grow Mats Verse Soil Article 2 Bamboo Grow Matting We will be testing the three microgreen soil media again, using different trays. We will update the show notes as soon as the article is published.
I learned a good lesson this week while growing Wasabina Mustard microgreens. One would think that you can grow all mustards the same way and get good results. But, unfortunately, that was not the case with Wasabina. It got to the point where I was going to blame the seed lot on the poor results. But instead, I decided to go back to the basics and give them another try. That did the trick, as the next tray was beautiful. The lessons learned are not to assume all microgreen cultivars in a family of microgreens will grow well using the same methods. Also, if something isn't working, fall back on the methods that have always given you good results and modify from there. Show notes can be found by clicking this link. We also have a related article on How to Grow Mustard Microgreens.
Episode 15 - Bamboo Microgreen Grow Mats, How Do They Compare?
17 Oct 2021
00:13:26
In this episode, we discuss how well bamboo microgreen grow mats compare to hemp grow mats and Home Microgreens Potting mix. You can visit the related article Microgreen Grow Mats Verse Soil - Which is Better, Hemp, Bamboo, or Soil? The bamboo microgreen grow mats are made by VegBed. The Hemp mats are made by TerraFibre and can be purchased in the Home Microgreens Store. The potting mix is a coconut coir base with some peat and other additives. You can get more information and purchase the soil in the Home Microgreens Store. The show notes can be found here.
In this episode of the Microgreens Podcast, we discuss all things mold.

Espoma Potting Mix for Microgreens, Storing Soil, and Upcoming Microgreen Mat Trials
10 Dec 2020
00:12:42
In Episode 13 of the Microgreens Podcast, we discuss how well Espoma Organic Potting Mix did in the most recent soil trial. Espoma potting mix held it's own, not quite as good as Home Microgreens potting mix but we'd use it for sure. This also leads to a discussion on how to best store soil in the home using totes. Get rid of the bags, dump the soil into appropriate sized totes. It's much easier to get the soil out of the totes than the bags. Also, use a high sided tray when filling your microgreen planting trays. You can scrape off the extra soil into the tray and when you're finished, dump the soil back into the soil tote. No mess and no vacuum cleaner or anything to pick up spilled soil. So many people have emailed wanting me to start working with fiber mats. We discuss how I'll do the trials. Each type of mat will be run on a one-on-one matchup with Home Microgreens potting mix for a comparison of how well or how badly microgreens grow on fiber mats.

Removing Swiss Chard & Beet Seed Husks Without Soaking
04 Dec 2020
00:13:50
Swiss chard and beet microgreens are beautiful and tasty! They may take a bit longer to grow than other microgreens, but worth the wait. Except for those nasty, ugly, hard, bark-like seed husks. If you've ever bitten into one of these seed husks, you'll never forget it. Grown conventionally, it's almost impossible to have husk-free microgreens. Worst, when you go to pick them off the microgreens, the husks usually take most of the leaf with it. At first, we tried soaking the seeds before planting, hoping that they would soften and come off as they grew. That wasn't the case, however. Finally, we found a way to remove almost all of the husks. In this podcast, we explain how we accomplished this task. More information can also be found on the Microgreens Podcast show notes page at HomeMicrogreens.com/012.
What is the Blackout Period for Microgreens? - 2 Methods
26 Nov 2020
00:16:58
In this episode, we discuss the purpose of the blackout period for microgreens. As well as the two methods commonly used to blackout microgreens. The methods are the Weighted Blackout Method and the Domed Blackout method. The weighted method makes for better seed to soil contact and usually better germination and more vigorous, sturdier microgreens. The domed method is used for fragile stemmed microgreens like amaranth that don't recover from the weight bearing down on them. The blackout means that the microgreen trays need to be covered with something to exclude light from the seeds. A tea towel will work well if the weight you use doesn't stop light from reaching the seeds. For more information listen to the podcast and see the articles linked in the show notes at HomeMicrogreens.com/011

What LED lights are best for the home microgreen grower? We discuss the LED light specifications that are needed to grow microgreens in the home. It doesn't take special grow lights to produce good microgreens. Of course, the more intensity, power, and fuller spectrum of light you can give your microgreens, the better the microgreens will grow. But the growth difference between a couple of inexpensive LED shop lights compared to a $130 grow light isn't that much. Maybe for a commercial microgreen grower, but not the person looking to grow a couple of small trays a week. The show notes have links to the inexpensive lights we use on our shelves. The show notes can be found at HomeMicrogreens.com/010.
We are often asked, almost daily in fact, if you can reuse microgreen soil once the greens have been harvested. My old blanket answer was "No". However, we recently ran a test to see if it is possible to grow a decent tray of microgreens in reused soil. We expected some ugly trays of microgreens. But boy, were we shocked! It turns old that in some cases clipping down the old crop and planting on top of the stubble will work. The question, however, is should you reuse microgreen soil. Is there too big a risk of disease? We still recommend not reusing microgreen soil. Regardless of what our testing shows. But check out the results and make your own decision. Check out a video and photos of our test and results at HomeMicrogreens.com/009.

We talk about microgreen growing trays in this episode and give you recommendations of the 3 best microgreen trays. We also talk about the criteria that a container needs to be a good microgreen tray. Cheaper or free is not always better and we understand why home growers sometimes re-use produce clamshells and other re-usable items; but, they still end up in the recyclable container after one or two uses. This podcast has an associated article published on HomeMicrogreens.com. Here's a link to that article. Links to all of the recommended microgreen growing trays can be found in the show notes at HomeMicrogreens.com/006
In this episode of the Microgreens Podcast, we go over our methods of growing celery microgreens. Celery microgreens have an intense celery flavor, more so than celery stalks. The best part is celery microgreens don't have to deal with the tough strings! We do not recommend that beginners start with celery because it takes patience to grow. In fact, it can take over 2-weeks before celery seeds germinate. After 30 or so days, celery microgreens are ready to harvest and can be used anywhere; celery stalks are used. We like to add chopped celery microgreens to stuffing (dressing), chicken and vegetable soup, and casseroles after cooking. The show notes can be found at HomeMicrogreens.com/005. The related article can be read at Micro Celery - Intense Flavor Without the Tough Strings. Here is a link to the Home Microgreens Seed Calculator.

The Benefits of Using Cilantro Split Seeds for Growing Microgreens
24 Sep 2020
00:14:26
We planted two trays of cilantro microgreens; on one tray, we planted whole cilantro seeds; on the other, we planted cilantro split seeds. The purpose is to see if there's a difference between the two forms of seed. There is no sense in carrying both types of seeds, so whichever one grows the best is the one we will continue to grow. We found that the cilantro split seeds germinated quicker grew straighter, and were ready to harvest sooner than the microgreens grown from whole cilantro seeds. This episode is created to provide additional information to an article published on HomeMicrogreens.com. Show notes can be found here: https://homemicrogreens.com/002 The article can be found here: https://homemicrogreens.com/split-cilantro-seeds/

In Episode 43 of the Microgreens Podcast, I discuss my observations of temperature on the growth of microgreens. We as humans need to get out of the reductionist ways of thinking. For most things in life and nature, one particular thing is not the cause of a problem, issue, or even the good things that happen. It's a combination of events or factors that is the cause. Issues of growing microgreens in the heat or cold are no different. The absolute temperature is not 100% of the issue; humidity, growth stage, and airflow are also important factors in how microgreens grow. I discuss all of these in the podcast. You can visit the show notes of this podcast here on HomeMicrogreens.com.
In Episode 42 of the Mirogreen Podcast, I talk about where I have been, what is new with the remodeled Home Microgreens website, and why you should be buying into a microgreen system and not looking for a recipe on how to grow microgreens.
An Organic Fertilizer for Microgreens: When You Need It & When You Don't
29 Mar 2023
00:20:30
In Episode 41 of the Microgreens Podcast I go over the results of a test I did using an organic fertilizer with both quick-growing and slow-growing microgreens on two different soils. The purpose of the test is to see how well this fertilizer improves the growth of microgreens. On microgreens that are harvestable within 14 days and those that take much longer to grow. You can see the results on the show notes page at HomeMicrogreens.com/41 Here is a link to the related article: An Organic Microgreens Fertilizer: Do Microgreen Need Fertilizer?
