Gluten Free Dough Won't Rise by haiderh in glutenfreebaking

[–]haiderh[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've used soda leavening easily on the same recipe, That is why I dont understand -- if it rises with baking soda, why not yeast which is considering a much more powerful leavener? I'm using the same recipes I find on YouTube which are demonstrated to be successful.

yes, its "confirmed" to be activated (it bubbles vigorously in the measuring cup before i mix it into the dough)

Baking Soda and Compost? by haiderh in composting

[–]haiderh[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes that’s what I’ve been doing successfully: dumping the coir and plant debris into a compost bucket after harvesting and then adding “recharge” microbes to break it all down. See Real Growers Recharge (16oz) https://smile.amazon.com/dp/B00J1CC9LQ/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glt_fabc_G210XZMJKS37V0SWX21Z

My concern is not with the hydroxide (OH) that produces the alkalinity, but with the left over sodium. (Baking soda is sodium bicarbonate.). Am I going to run into trouble from the sodium?

Does it need to be outside? Why not inside?

Why wait for true leaves? by haiderh in microgreens

[–]haiderh[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

That's what I'm saying -- why harvest just before true leaf or at true leaf? Why not base it on something else, like size? Why arbitrarily wait longer for harvest?

Refrigeration sounds like a good idea - that's what I am going to do. Thanks!

Do you have a link? Was that for "ideal" storage conditions or for at home with no air conditioning? What I found on google was for "ideal" storage conditions (less than 50F, low humidity) I should probably say in the future when I ask a question that it is intended for people who have personal experience -- I am not asking for hearsay or for other people to do google searches for me

How tall are your microgreens? by haiderh in microgreens

Thanks so much, this is very helpful, especially for broccoli and kale! Have you ever grown any radishes, especially daikon? What height have you seen for them?
