We are selling to shops for the first time, and we got great results with sunflower microgreens on a coarse mesh!

This week, we got our cilantro microgreens results and discovered how moisture during germination affects sunflower microgreens.

Growing cilantro microgreens on reusable mesh medium. Trying new sunflower microgreens experiments and eliminating weight on germination.

We started a new test to grow microgreens with sunflower and cilantro seeds this week. We also adjusted our germination rates.

New video on how to use the reusable microgreen meshes grow medium. Preparing growing microgreen guides and a batch of Garland trays

Fewer Ruches to distribute and fewer cycles to grow. Microgreens germination without weight and no blackout for Radish or Broccoli

Mould problems with drying dead matter in the grow room and growing pea microgreens with only a Garland reservoir tray.

Our growing room improved, new packaging for microgreens test and a new video to highlight the Garland microgreen trays!

This week, we adjusted some critical aspects of our growing schedule for Mizuna, Rocket, Broccoli Calabrese and Pea microgreens.

This week we experimented with reusable meshes to grow microgreens, not using a mesh, and eliminating a growing tray to grow microgreens!

After a lot of investigating and experimenting, we found a reusable growing medium that we love. In this post, I cover everything from finding our…

Sunflower soaking times. There are some benefits and issues of using meshes to grow microgreens and a couple of Danish trolleys!

This week, we started a new sunflower microgreens experiment. We also started with cilantro seeds for the first time and failed miserably!

This week we started sowing new seeds, and we experienced some trouble with Sunflower. We also adjusted the number of seeds when sowing.

We're a vegan business. For microgreen growers that might be a given, but it's not and we explain why!

Busy with four Ruches forces us to find better planning to grow our microgreens. We adapted our sowing schedule to be more efficient.

We regularly get questions about our setup, so this post gives you an overview of the materials we use.

La Ruche Qui Dit Oui, degustations and logistical problems with a growing operation of microgreens like washing trays and cold temperatures.

We are launching at La Ruche Qui Dit Oui / Boeren & Buren at Schaerbeek on Wednesdays and Auderghem on Saturdays. See you soon!

This week we go more into using a heater for our growing room and some of the results from using stainless steel meshes.

This week we got our new logo. We also included Cress, Purple Kohlrabi, Red Mizuna, and Speckled Pea in our microgreens catalogue!

We had some germination problems due to the decrease in temperature. We will seek for a temporary solution to increase our germination rate.

Our research to understand wether peat moss or coconut coir is the more sustainable alternative. Both have disadvantages.

This week we saw impressive results on the yields of our Radish China Rose microgreens, and we got five new seeds!

Our webshop is live, and we are selling Garland 10x20 trays, coconut coir and a Starter Kit! We also got an excellent yield from Red Cabbage!

This week we obtained a great yield of Broccoli Calabrese microgreens harvests due to increasing the medium on our trays.

This week we believe we found the solution to the weight mystery when stacking trays to grow microgreens. We created a new schedule as well!

This week we talk about using weight using the stacking technique and our weekly giveaway of microgreens to anyone interested!

This week we got a new stainless steel box to test with our microgreens, and we used for the first time the Bionova Cocobricks.

This week we tested our full setup for the first time, we got the racks, lights, fans, trays, coconut coir and organic seeds.

This week we talk about using the blackout technique vs not using it. We got our new Garland trays, and we started the stacking technique!

This week we had a successful result from our weight experiments, we got our coconut coir pallet, and our new LED growing lights!

This week we did experiments with water, weight and containers for our microgreens. We ran into some problems and found some insights!

Gearing up for larger-scale production and using hydrogen peroxide for the first time to sanitise our trays before sowing new seeds.

Shifting to organic seeds, optimizing our space and getting a new rack. Our microgreens farm is growing and we still have lots more to do!

Problems with reusing a growing medium related to mold when growing microgreens. Switching to organic seeds and doing lots of research.

Our research to understand the difference between broccoli italica, calabrese and raab. Some are synonyms and others different species.

This week I lost two full crops of microgreens due to unknown problems. I reused coconut coir for the first time to start fresh microgreens!
