What do you use these for? I have some micro green seeds but I’m not sure what my plans are for them

These are grown for our CSA and we eat them as well. We add them to basically any meal, especially eggs

Wow. That is some macro micro.

I love eating microgreens, but I feel like I would struggle to grow them because I would feel like I was preventing the plant from reaching its full potential, lol. Like, these few leaves could have been a whole head of broccoli! You know? How do you think about that and make them cost effective?

Good question and I understand the sentiment. But, it takes a lot of work, time, risk and proper seasonality to get that head of broccoli. Also, seed is the smallest cost in microgreens production and is produced specifically for sprouting and microgreens. The benefits greatly outweigh the cost. I recommend folks start by growing broccoli sprouts, no soil or trays needed. Always organic seed. #grownostr

Can you share some more about your process, maybe link to a good tutorial, a voice recording about what you've learned? Step by step? Would give a good zap for some more intel, would like to step into this model

Maybe someday. One on one consulting is always an option though: https://texasecofarms.com/consulting/ #grownostr
