Very delicious, and so easy to grow! I love broccoli microgreens, next to sunflowers they are my favorites. I also enjoy the beet microgreens, they take a little longer to grow than the broccoli, but they add such a beautiful color and taste to salads. Or use them as an unusual garnish. They are very easy to grow, and taste really good. Give them a try!

Thankyou for your very clear instructions. Thankyou much appreciated.
Covering seeds with a layer of soil works for me in removing a lot of the m.
I’ve watched many you tube videos on growing micro greens and by far you are the most thorough! Thank you
Hi Tikki O.
What do you do with the soil after the microgreens harvest? I am curious. Can we grow the next harvest in the same soil too without much difficulty?
How and when do you water before the lid comes off, and also after it comes off? How long does lid stay on for beets? Thank you for you video!
Tikki O. Good info on side by side comparison. Have you tried the Micro Mats growing medium from Mountain Valley yet? I have seen some microgreen pros using it and they get great results.
I am about ready to try this myself. JUST started hydroponic and got 5-6 going now under the lights inside. Got 2 lettuce plants 2 bak choy and a spinach plant. So now I need some microgreens to.
@ 10:00 min in you ask bout hulls… …i roller pin my beet seeds to separate them (multi shoots FROM ONE SEED if left alone) rolling then separates individuals so hulls are smaller and GO THRU the strainer 🙂 just guess`n on this one… great vid and LET ME KNOW IF THE SCREEN TECHNIQUE WORKS AND IF ITS FOOD GRADE SCREENING OR JUST THE SH$T I CAN PULL OFF MY WINDOWS LOL
What temperature do you keep the greens
Just use a spray hose, go over them real good
Hello! I love your videos, you do such a great job explaining everything. Do you have an affiliate link for the seed companies you buy from? Thanks!
I love your videos they are very informative and well researched and very clear thanks for sharing .
After gently swishing the sprouts around in the spinner bowl, I've always used a small fine stainless steel mesh strainer. It works great!
But, I'm getting a new Vitamix, so I plan on incorporating them into my smoothies in the future. Yeah!
Great video again! Thanks Tikki!
Hulls= fiber. I just wash ‘em and eat ‘em!
Wow nice growth…looks like you have a green thumb…i have a ❓ do we have to presoak beet seeds…pls guide
@5:54 – that was Brent. 🙂
Thank you for this video – your voice was calm, your pronunciation was great, everything was clear and easy to understand.
Awesome! 🙂
My suggestion for rinsing your micro greens is to rinse them in the bowl of the spinner first to remove the hulls then spin them dry that's what I find to be the best method
Great Video. How often are you watering? Are you top or bottom watering?
Hi Tikki– what'a your take on doing this in cardboard boxes?
I'm confused. How do I water them? Do I just spray the tops of them? How often do I water them? Once a day? Twice?
What about a food dehydrator screen they keep food from falling thru but still have holes instead of window screen?
put the greens in a wide mouth jar, fill up to top with water, the hulls float to the top and easy skimming!
Did you end up figuring out how to grow the beet microgreens hydroponically?
Try putting a weight on top of the micro greens as they are sprouting, It will force the plants to strengthen and may cause the shells to part,
Let me now if it works for you
I watched a guy plant beet micro seeds by pressing them down hard into coir, then again pressing them down again with a tray to cover and heavy weight on top. In the end he had almost no hulls. I tried it and when they began to sprout, they raised the coir with them, hulls and all. Didn't work for me, but seemed to for him. Hmmm.
You said to cover the broccoli a couple of days and then I think you said you uncovered it on Day 6? Please clarify. I'm a rank beginner. Thanks
Can we grow beetroot greens in Mason jar
Very insightful video. Kindly let me know if specific seeds are used for growing microgreens or regular seeds would do a job
