Self Sufficient Me is based on our small 3-acre property/homestead in SE Queensland Australia about 45kms north of Brisbane – the climate is subtropical (similar to Florida). I started Self Sufficient Me in 2011 as a blog website project where I document and write about backyard food growing, self-sufficiency, and urban farming in general. I love sharing my foodie and DIY adventures online so come along with me and let’s get into it! Cheers, Mark 🙂
Alfalfa is so nutritious and enjoyable to eat.
Hens like green veg such as kale.
Any jar will do but this is less fiddly.
Hey everyone! I understand there are lots of frugal ways to make these products and I have also made sprouting or fermenting vessels with recycled bottles etc but that wasn't the point of the video. I mostly save our own seeds also, but that doesn't stop me from buying them occasionally and supporting the "grow your own" or DIY small business community. Yes, saving money is important but spending it in the right areas is also an important philosophy for me. Thank you for your ongoing support and helping me to pass 90k subscribers this month! https://www.selfsufficientme.com/
You can also buy cheap dried beans, lentils and flax seeds. They sprout very easily and if you rotate them every three days you have a constant supply of fresh greens.
We used to do this as kids using jars and a nylon mesh. Funny that these days they call it "super food".
Nice reviews. Thanks mate.
I found Clover sprouts have actually replaced my desire to have meat in a sandwich. They taste way better and the texture change has made a big difference for me too.
Please, show us 5 easy steps on how to grow ham
I know this is stupid and not to be taken seriously…
Did you really drop a slice of unhealthy processed cheese in the roll? Some grated parmigiana would be better, or better still the ham alone is sufficient.
Did you try eating the sorghum sprouts yourself? Were they any good? Seems like a plant that's easy to grow in the area so could provide a never ending source of free sprouts!
We use a wide mouth jar – vacola jars are great – with a piece of flyscreen and a large rubber band. Alfalfa seed will go through flyscreen when dry, but not after soaking for 24 hours! A friend gave us a draining container made from a small ice cream container…works great. Will do a video about it when I can get some more alfalfa seed…haven't been able to buy them here for a few months.
I love Alfalfa sprouts! I always wondered how to grow them! I'm gonna buy a kit and a bunch of seed and I'll be growing these year round! Thanks Mike for posting this! Awesome stuff!
Thank you for the link, have checked their site out and will probably be getting some sprouting jars from them soon.
Thanks mate, just ordered some to do with the kids next week. MC
I love sprouts!
We use a sprouting jar! You are making me hungry!
I dislike paid advertisement disguised as review, I had to unsub, wish you all the best..
This guy is a genius 😀
Thanks for all the videos, they help a lot.
I'd totally recomend fermenting. It stores for a really long time so the time investment is well worth it. Not to mention good sourcraut at the market is outragously priced.
ever since i had sprouts from a jar at a friend's house i've wanted to try it myself, thanks for the very informative video!
Good one Mark, I was looking for a jar type sprouting so it’s good to get a review from someone who’s opinion I value. I might juts get the lids as I have lots of jars. Keep up the great work, Kate.
Brilliant thanks!
Thank you I tried to do sprout and nothing so I ordered the screen do do them again. As soon as it come then I will try it. And I planted ginger. So we will see. Both videos are great.
Thinking of trying this! Alfalfa sprouts would be good for our sandwich mondays!
thanks I have just ordered my first fementing jar from Wholesome supplies fast and easy 😉
Hey Mark, thank you for this video, I learned a lot again! I have a question: did you taste the sorghum sprouts? I know in Africa they eat sorghum not only as flower, or the young leaves as veggies, but they also eat sorghum sprouts. And those sprouts are said to be very healthy too…
Since you sprouted them, I was just curious about the taste 😉
….VODKA? WINE? …. I mean, yeah- sprouts.
Damn. Fermenting kits not at wholesomefoods any more by the looks of it. Not even in the menu.-
My 1 concern is the sodium nitrate in the ham this is what makes it pink and is carcinogenic we don't eat sausages that have been brought or bacon or ham
Saw a video where you flood the jar when you wash it to float out the husks…..saw a bit in the middle where your jar has heaps of husks around the top.
Good timing got my sprouts and micro green seeds today!
Love ya work.
