Description
With this nursery you can grow pea shoots etc. or push up your Hydropino plants. It has a denser grid at the bottom than the Sorta nursery so the seeds don't fall through. Choose to buy it as is or with seed cubes (for hydroponic cultivation).
It has a smaller water reservoir, so if you grow hydroponically you will need to refill more often, but in the beginning the plants don't drink that much so it doesn't make much of a difference.
If you buy with seed cubes, you get 88 small mushrooms that are together in a mat. Perfect for starting many plants in a small area. Sow a couple of seeds a week and let them germinate and grow in this nursery. Most of the things you grow grow very slowly at first. When they have got proper roots, place the cube in a mushroom and basket and then place in the container where they will grow. This way you can have many new plants going as they grow slowly and take up little space and avoid blocking your larger containers for this (sometimes frustratingly slow) growth period.
It is easy to pull apart and divide the cubes into several parts.
If you buy it without it, you will get a box (the green one) and an insert (the white one) for germinating seeds.
The box has dimensions 32x 24 x 4.5 cm.
Also called: growing plates, growing plate, sprout bed, sprout box, growing box
If you want to try growing pea sprouts, do this:
- Soak 3 dl yellow peas for a day (they will start to sprout faster)
- Spread the peas out on the wire rack.
- Fill with water so that it just reaches the peas.
- When they have roots in the water, you can have a little less water.
- When they have grown 10-15 cm, cut them but do not cut all the way down to the pea, new shoots will appear.
- Eat on the sandwich, add the piece of meat or fish as decoration or eat as is, healthy and delicious.
