The greens are making progress day by day!! There are about six or eight tiny little beet greens coming up!! such a beautiful color and so exciting! 😄

Broccoli, day 4
Kohlrabi, day 4
Beets, day 4. The white that you see are root hairs, not mold. 
Red acre cabbage with radish heart in the center, day 4

All four of these trays were started on 5/18, and I hope that they are ready for Saturday’s event, although it’s quite questionable if the beets will be ready 😄. For now they’re still weighted, meaning that there’s a tray on top of the soil with weights on the tray so they can send down roots before they send up greens.

Pictures from day 3!

Broccoli on day three!!!
Kohlrabi, day 3
I have seen other people do this, so I am trying it too! Purple Radish in the center of a bed of red acre cabbage! I didn’t use form- just tried to sprinkle the right seeds on the right areas. The force of the water displaced some of the seeds. I could mitigate that with a misting bottle.

I am officially growing and getting ready to share/sell my microgreens.

Update: I took several trays with me to this event and gave away a bunch of samples. Everyone loved them!! I sold one box. At the end, I harvested the final greens into 3 boxes (each holds 42 g, or about 2.5 oz) for friends to take.  

We here at the Aloha Garden Of Peace are delighted to announce that we are growing microgreens and will be bringing a batch to share this coming Saturday to the Meet and Greet event at Puna Kai shopping center on May 25 from 11-2 pm. I planted 4 trays yesterday, and hopefully, they will all be ready for eating in a week! I will be watering each of the trays approximately twice a day. If you are in town, please come on by to meet, greet, and support all the new entrepreneurs! Aloha!

 

Stay tuned and I will post pictures as I am growing trays of microgreens!!
