Hey man, really like the channel. However, I'd suggest in a nice mic you can attach to your body, not in the game so i don't know the current market. It will greatly help your channel. I know we all watch dony but make this channel your own you know. Also when I had upload issues all those years ago, I could get audio and that but the video would freeze, and chop. It was because the hard drive on my computer wasn't fast enough to capture everything. So it lost parts and packets of data as it either records or transfers, switched to a much faster transfer speed and the issue was gone (either faster hhd, or go solid state ssd or m.2. make sure its compatible before buying (some say ssd might wear out eventually but I still use my original one and do full wipes on the system every few months or so, no issues, and terabytes aren't nearly as expensive as they used to be when I bought mine). Hope this help you and your family. Though not all issues are the same, take my words as my experiences only. Good luck!
Can you cover what to look for for a finished pea micro? There was a jump in the video and you didn't cover it. They don't have the same signifier as most microgreens. Thanks!
Great Question! Our goal with peas is to have open leaves & about 6" tall We used to grow them quite a bit taller as you can see in the video, but found over time that they taste better, are more tender, and package nicely at 6" tall. I hope that helps! If you have any other questions, feel free to join our FREE Skool Community at: www.skool.com/growthbites
Thanks, Yes it is fun watching everything grow from start to finish. Maybe I'll work on putting together some Time-lapse footage for one of my upcoming videos!
So appreciative I found you. Since moving to the south from the west, my microgreens were not doing well at all. I got the bootstraps and decided to give it another go starting with speckled peas. I also started using the Coco Loco, which I have used in the past for garden seed starting but never for greens. I also use azomite, alfalfa and kelp and MAN, Im a microgreener again. My microgreens have NEVER been better. I grow in the basement under Sunblaze 54W T5's. Thank you so much for the tips, you rock!

Thanks! In this series, we were using Promix BX. We recently made a switch to Coco Loco by FoxFarms and have seen a significant increase in yield and quality :)

Is the 9-10 day grow period just growing under lights or does that include the three days of soaking too?
10 days Total grow time from sowing to harvest.
Very detailed video and nice close ups. I can imagine watching a time lapse video of the peas growing on those trays. New friend from the 1k challenge
Thanks, Yes it is fun watching everything grow from start to finish. Maybe I'll work on putting together some Time-lapse footage for one of my upcoming videos!
Is there any water in bottom of tray before you weight?
No- when we water our trays before germination, we don't want to oversaturate the soil to the point of dripping to the tray below.
Thank you for the amazing video! Your grow room is inpsiring!
Thank You! We are continuously growing more & expanding our space. 💚

@@IttyBittyMicroFarm I saw that after the fact...thx for prompt reply...love the site!
I love Pea Microgreens they go in a lot of things I like them in Stir fry.
Stir fry is great with Peas! We also sauté them in olive oil & garlic with (or without) spinach for a delicious side dish!
stir fry is going to give you cancer.
