Curtis as always great video! My question is about microgreen/sprout pricing/weight. I'm currently doing mung bean sprouts, sunflower shoots, pea shoots and a rainbow mix. Wholesaling to restaurants and grocery stores. I'd like some uniformity in size of bags and price, however some seeds are more expensive than others same as weights. I see most yours are all 4 oz bags? so at 3 $ a bag your getting 12$ a pound do you keep price same and change weights? Thanks so much!
yoooo I came from Justin Rhodes channel 🙂
had no idea you were in BC though, I'm in vancouver 😀
im so jealous you got to meet him, I've been following his journey for like a year now
cheers man, I'll be watching for your vids now too
great advice and information on winter crops !! thanks for sharing
What about barley or wheat grasses?
Hi Curtis. What's the average winter time temperature there?
Curtis, on your three kinds of microgreens is there a specific variety for each one? Specifically the sunflower shoots. What works the best for you? Thx Dustan
Hey Curtis. Can you do a video on how you store the crops you grow? For example; How do you keep leafy greens like kale, lettuce and micro greens fresh in the cooler for periods of time. Do you let them sit in totes of water to keep the greens firm and fresh, or do you just mist them every couple of days or so. How do you store carrots? Are they in bags in the cooler, or just sitting in a tote open, are they washed or left with the dirt on for longer storage. Thank you for all that you do.
Thank you. I watched your video on winter bed prep; just wondering if you can do a followup on watering fall/winter crops: when you stop watering, how you manage crop growth with freeze and thaw cycles, etc.
Do you have, or would you consider a movable green house like Eliot Coleman uses?
How do you calculate how much to pay the landowners for water costs? And how did you approach them with this issue?
As usual great vlog, thanks Curtis. So important to think 6-8 weeks ahead. Onions hmmmm. In USDA zone 4/5. Start in June? for cold weather by October?
I need advice growing carrots in zone 8a.
Thank you for the video. I have been growing pea shoots, but am getting low yields. I think I am using the wrong type of pea. What kind are you growing?
I would love to know what kind of video camera you use and tools for editing these videos. Great job!
Is an electric carving knife ok for harvesting microgreens? I saw a recent research video where they basically had the equivalent of a tilt saw to mass cut microgreens flats.
Thanks Curtis, great stuff, started two 20' beds here in Taos, nm , putting to practice the work in your book and YouTubes !
Hey there, where do you get your plastic from? Also, do you have experience with Oregon Valley Greenhouses?
Hey Curtis! Do you use the greens harvester to cut the micro greens?
Do you have any idea if Bcs is planning to develop an electric tractor?
I love what you do. You truly inspire me. However, my biggest question is this. How and where do you get your soil amendments. Since you replant and turn over your crops very fast I'm trying to understand how you afford soil and compost to fill all of those little trays that grow your microgreens and other crops. I can see myself literally studying you and your methods from here forward. You are simply amazing. Your videos are simply the most interesting and easy to understand that I've seen to date. Thank You So Much. Journey On!
Why do you not plant potatoes? Aren't they quite resilient?
Hi Curtis, in order to have a well established kale before the winter hits, when do you need to transplant it in the garden? Our farm is located in Bulgaria and the winter hits around Xmas/NYE. Thanks in advance. Im a HUGE fan and hope i can come to one of your workshops soon!
Hi Curtis ! What about Brussels sprouts ? Do you have them in Canada ?
[Ps: I've been following you almost from the beginning ! Your videos and your book rock !
I'm hopefully starting my farming enterprise this autumn following you advices and teachings. Keep up the good work ! Thanks a million for all the infos you share !]

Video is too long it needs to be more basic
I'm in Colorado, what did it cost you to put up that greenhouse? Your a good farmer.. I would like to grow all 4 seasons. Thank you ..
Fell out of gardening/Homesteading for a bit because of finances and travel. Getting back into it and of course had to initiate reopening that part of my mind with one of the "Urban Farmer's" videos. I used to live out in more of a country setting and now I am blessed with a rental in the city with some land and lax homestead laws. Super excited to get back on making content of our homesteading adventures and I appreciate you, Curits, for being one of my most inspirational teachers through the content you put out. Thank you for keeping on and doing what you do! Thrice.
Thanks
How much needs to make greenhouse of per sqft?
If there are no crops grown in winter wonderland with is so short. Then we have no food!
