Do you use the green (vinyl label covers or do you just put seeds in and stick these into the white baskets without anything on top of the pods

No, but I do reuse the humidity domes until the seeds germinate. If you have lost those you can use small ketchup or condiment cups from the local burger joiint.

You can do either. I have some growing without the label cover and some with. Both are doing just fine.

I would use a cover if using these in conjunction with the baskets. Once I received them, however, they seemed to be the size I would use for my seed starter tray which does not use covers. It would primarily depend on whether you are planting something that requires darkness or light to germinate.

I don't understand about green vinyl labels. I put the seeds in the pods and put the clear plastic domes on top of each pod until the seed germinates, then I take the dome off. They germinate faster with the domes, but with nothing over the seed it should still germinate but not as fast as it does with the dome.

I just use the plastic domes for seedings and leave them open for mature growth but you can use the green labels if you like.

I used them until the seed sprouts and then I take them off this helps to speed up the sprouting process, but the way I do love my aerogarden

I use them in a LaPavoni machine. The basket I have is listed as one that takes ESE pods....and they work well.

I just keep them in a drawer since they have sleeves. Make sure they are clean and dry before putting in the sleeves.

That is what we use, regular white bags from supermarket. You just have to tuck the bag around the inner container at the top.

The lid is hinged. You need a pod maker and an iron or electric pod maker to go with them. i make about 100 at a time, put them in zip lock bags and save them.

I use a mesh seed guard like this one: http://www.drsfostersmith.com/product/prod_display.cfm?pcatid=20947&cmpid;=04csegpl&ref;=6111&subref;=AA&CAWELAID;=525384260&CA;GPSPN=pla&catargetid;=530005150000090886&c;adevice=cI got mine at a local bird supply store. They are pretty cheap and when they get dirty, you can throw them in the washing machine.

The pods are also plastic. It's flexible, so that way the jars don't crack when the food expands after being frozen.

I would just use regular seeds. The pods are for outside or a metal planter. Good luck!

I just wrap mine in wax paper! or ziplock, or eat them strait from the Pop Maker!

hmm,,,I'm not an authority on what gases are released naturally by either beans- I'm just really pleased by how much of a vacuum I can get using the vacu vin. It's a little tricky and takes practice to get a really good seal but it is definitely worth the effort. I take it you will be storing the green beans and the roasted ones in separate containers. I wouldn't store both in one.

Gin: I use covers for germinating seeds for sure, but not afterwards because I find it promotes disease and fungus knats. I happen to use my light stand in a room with forced air heating, and that tends to dry out seedlings. But after they germinate, I can better meet their moisture needs by appropriate watering, or just misting during early days before transplanting. I'd be happy to offer other comments. Good luck!

The green color does blend into a flower bed once your plants grow and they are not very noticeable. My friends always ask where is the music coming from. I think you could spray paint them with a plastic safe paint. Hope this helps.

I've tried putting my own labels on the SIDE of these containers too, and have failed because of the slight taper, you can't get a regular square or rectangle to fit on the SIDE. I also have this question- where can you find TAPERED ice cream labels for the side, rather than just small square freezer labels for the top?

I soak peas before planting and add just enough inoculant to coat them just before planting. I don't soak beans. Just wet them, put them in a plastic bag and coat them. I am going to use row covers this year to keep the birds from feasting on my seeds.

The are transparent, hard plastic liners. I suppose you could line the shelves and then cover them with plastic to create a makeshift greenhouse the size and shape of the shelves.

My understanding is that pods can be used, but I'm old school (and cheap!) so I use ground beans and a tamper.

They won't work. Too tall. Pods are short and fat. You can also buy refilled loss at Albertsons super.market. love my brewer. These empty work fine. But you should g e t the sealer. Less messy.
