Spray paint the bottle black so uv light can’t get in
You can, I am not worried about it. Oooo, I can have my wife paint some art!
@@KeepOnGrowinYou could probably sell those art pieces.
Looks great Mike! Thanks for a demo on cleaning the clay pebbles. Way easier than i expected. I will have to do a little experiment with those.
Great! I plan to do some sprouts this way. Got clay pebbles. Love the self-watering idea from hummingbird feeders etc. What is best source of seed? I have sources for veggies, fruit and flowers seeds but not bulk for sprouting.
I use True Leaf Market, some I just get on Amazon
Amazing
Great work Mike😊
What are the self watering adapters made of?
PLA
This is great. I am interested so I can print with my 3D printer. Where do I sign up?
I will post to Thingiverse in a few days. It will be here: https://www.thingiverse.com/keep_on_growin/designs
This is wonderful!! Can you micro-green rosemary?
Thank you. I don’t believe so, it is more like a shrub. I have never tried though.
I don’t see the link Would like to order some please.

Also where do you get your seeds from. TY. Jlee
True Leaf Market
Yes! Yes! Yes! Dang it Mike. I’m getting tired of calling you a genius. 🙂 🙂 🙂
Lol, thanks Troy! I’m just a dude.
Hey Mike, thanks.
Hey Mike. Just a thought. A very small top layer of bb sized clay pebbles as a top layer might help prevent losing seeds and even out the starting height of the rmicrogreens. I’m not sure. it might make clean up harder IDK. Maybe something worth a try???
Yep, very good. One guy I talked to is using perlite. As you said, a little more involved with the cleaning. I was about to try it with amaranth, that grew a whole lot better on the perlite. Might check out the smaller hydroton too. Let me know if you try.

Could you use the biodegradable bag to cover the seeds until they sprout?
I wonder how many times you can get out of it.
I love the kit idea.
Also, I’ve found two microgreen mixes at Dollar Tree. It may be a good way to try several different types of new greens.
That’s a great idea. I used the foil because it was easy to hold in place. Maybe use some clips or a rubber band. I will play with it.
not at all helpful to those of us without a 3D printer
He makes them and you can order them from him. Link is in the description
I understand but I can not let everyone’s limitations hold back my thought process. I am working on something, just not all at once. It’s difficult to help everyone in the world all at one time. Baby steps. Thank you for your patience.
Mike, i love this idea perfectly, done at solving a problem! I would really like to see an extension put onto this project!! So you can grow lettuce in some clay pebbles or other veggies a little longer… I’m terrible at remembering to water, this would help so much!!! Hope to see this extension idea next! 🙂
That’s the next step we are working on through the Spring. It’s really exciting.
My Hero, I was literally staying in front of all my greens this weekend and wondering, how can I automated this watering. Cause now its getting warmer here in MN and I’m getting hang up with my chickens as well, sometimes I forget to check on the greens, well, I wonder and you delivered, again 🥰💜
Thank you, glad I could help. Working on even more.
Thanks for the great videos! What’s your thingiverse page name?
