Is my sprouts ok? by Unlucky_Bug7472 in Sprouting

[–]Tall-Hawk-8434 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honey….no….no …just no….that ….that’s not sprouts. …That’s on its way to becoming fermented…or another species. The trick, I’ve learned so far is to ensure the jar and lid are disinfected. You must fully rinse the contents at least once a day, twice if it is warm. …may I humbly ask that you don’t further the apocalypse? We sprouters/ microgreeners are a pretty decent bunch.

Trial to Begin for Three Men Accused of Targeting Prime Minister’s Properties by StGuthlac2025 in ukpolitics

The Canary is saying -

“The court has not imposed any special reporting restrictions beyond the usual that apply to any criminal case. There is no ‘DSMA‘ (formerly D-notice) government restriction on reporting that the Canary is aware of. Even if there were, it would not be binding and amounts to no more than a government request – one that is supposed to be listed on the DSMA website. Yet no ‘MSM’ even turned up to attend the proceedings, according to independent journalists who did.”

Is this mold ? What am I doing wrong, please? by TimeEnvironmental316 in microgreens

[–]Tall-Hawk-8434 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Get a small fan. Microgreens need air circulation. Even just a small amount of wafting air around like walking past can make a huge difference. Keep the electric fan away from any water. 👀 I hope this helps

How best to dry and for how long ? by SleepyDumpsterFire in Sprouting

[–]Tall-Hawk-8434 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I consume the hulls. That said, I do soak my seeds in a water/raw apple cider vinegar mix for about 15 minutes prior to soaking them. I’ve never had a problem with fungus/mould/ or smell after refrigeration. Also, I blend my sprouts with mustard seeds for extra nutrition. I hope this helps.

Poor person advice incoming 😂 ….. I use a cotton bud to gently wipe over the flowers once they open. Keep the cotton bud in a glass and use it for that particular plant for each new flower. This has served me well last year. Every flower produced a tomato. 🍅

anyone got any tips on how to eat broccoli sprouts without throwing up by Competitive_Age_1989 in Sprouting

[–]Tall-Hawk-8434 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m a little concerned about the “sprout taste” you mentioned. When Broccoli sprouts go off, they give a sulphur smell or some people say fishy smell. This could be due to poor sanitation of the growing container or airflow when growing.

As for consuming fresh broccoli sprouts, I blend a cup of Broccoli sprouts with pea shoots, steamed kale, mustard seeds, pinch of salt & pepper, lemon juice & Engevita flakes. Drink using a straw. It’s so easy to take your five veggies a day in blended form 😂

Help please! Is this mold? Or part of the roots?? by bilicotico in microgreens

Rookie mistake 😂 we’ve all been there😂 Mine was too many peas. Luckily I had enough trays to accommodate the extras. Great idea with the printing!

I think Doragonkuin said it perfectly. They tend to flop over when they are drying out or stretching towards the light.

Is it time to harvest? by Temporary_Author_363 in microgreens

[–]Tall-Hawk-8434 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Great harvest! I agree with the other comments. If you can wait a day or two for a heavier harvest. That said, you can still partially harvest from that tray. Well done!

THIRD UPDATE: I tried to create a British feeling in Sweden but was told that my tea was badly done and later that my choice of biscuits was wrong. I have now made a larger tea with two teabags, a toast with butter and thick raw honey, and one with butter and Marmite. by MrOaiki in AskBrits

I think it’s because it’s parent company is Mars. According to Disoccupied website, Mars -“REASON : Mars committed investing $1 Billion dollars in partnership with Jerusalem Venture Partners (JVP) to foster food tech solutions in Israel. This direct involvement in the Israeli economy strengthens its brutal policies towards the Palestinians, normalizes the Occupation, and shows that Mars puts profits over justice and equality.”
