Can I grow these in my Easy Green Auto Sprouter? And without soil?

I have a different sprouter but never had an issue sprouting wheat. No soil is needed - the grass grows to about 3 inches in 7 days. I grow it for my guinea pig. I haven't grown it taller than that so I am not sure if at some point soil would be needed to get it a size where you can use it for e.g. Juicing.

you probably could , I just do not have any luck growing anything unless it is at least a year old , my green thumb does not work for anything small , good luck it does not hurt to try , you could also look into fruit trees to grow on patios

Honestly, I think you would be much better off watching an instructional video on Youtube. That way you can see what the sprouts should look like. Here is a link to a 5 minute one but there are many more. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IL0URJcZF8w Just watch a few and you will be ready for success.

Absolutely. I started over 1,500 tomato pepper and eggplant seeds in my basement using a light and grow set ups until they were ready for sale and planting outdoors. you need to watch the seedlings carefully because the seedlings will get leggy if plants are exposed to too much light. They can be started in 72 cube strays (3 trays to a typical light set up) and need to be properly watered and fed with a diluted liquid seed starter (b-1) for food ( use an eyedrop) . They need to be rotated and be subject to the lightness and darkness of a typical day as if they were outside. As they grow they can be transplanted into a bigger cardboard like containers that you can find at Big Lots or Ocean State Job Lots. Eventually all you have to do is put these into the ground when it is thier time for planting. Hope this helps.

I don't know 100%, but these are packed pretty tightly together and are designed not to come apart very easily... I wouldn't use this as the only growing medium, but I bet if mixed w/ potting soil or something it would work pretty well.

I don't know, but it seems like you could. They are live seeds, so why not? I know you cant use seed packaged to plant for sprouts because they put 'treatments' on those seeds, like to keep it from molding, etc. I would think that you could get seeds to plant cheaper though.

yes you can by just dropping a seed into the grow medium but i chose to use jiffy plugs to start seeds in and transfer to hydroponic system after sprout.

I would send this question to The Sprout House. They have a question and answer page and are extremely helpful. I only use these seeds to grow sprouts in my kitchen in jars. You can buy broccoli seeds much cheaper than this at any garden store. I wouldn't use them in a garden. If for no other reason than cost.

I planted mine in a few peat pots, but a good moist soil should do the trick as well. I put 3 seeds per pot, and about 2 sprouted from each one. Also i put the seeds just under the soil, not very deep.

I'm sorry, I don't know if you can grow them. I use them in my recipes, I know they taste better than most.

Probably. Definitely if you try to grow them outside. They generally make good houseplants--and can spend the winter inside, but I've always found that they tend to die back and go dormant (not always pretty) even inside. I'd wait until spring to plant the first time. You'll probably be happier with the results. You can also call the vendor for advice on this.

Hello! You can surely grow this in a regular pot. Just dump the soil mix inside the bag in your pot (or your own dirt too I suppose would be fine as well.) The seeds are in a little packet and I found them to be useful enough to fill said ugly sack twice. Hope your kitty (or dog.. I suppose dogs can nibble this as well; don't see why not) enjoys!

I have not received my cuttings as of yet(have made two requests). I have planted in the past, and no you do not need to. I would make sure that you plant in a well draining pot or area though, and after sprouts appear, fertilize. At least I have had luck in the past doing this and it eliminates the chance of burning any rooting before it gets a firm hold.

Hi I put them in water overnight and then planted them. Only one seed sprouted anf it is growing as we speak, at this point it is still only a plant though but I hope to plant it in the ground soon

Yes.Mine came in a long plastic tube which would not stand up on its own. All the dirt had come out during shipping,so I transplanted it right away into a 5 gallon pot with moisture control potting mix and a couple handfuls of azomite(minerals) and bio-char. It perked right up. It is growing and I anticipate finding a 15-20 gallon pot to transplant it again.

You can sprout them in a wet paper towel between two plates or use dirt plugs. Keep them moist at all times.

yes you can sprout these seeds. You can also plant them. They can be cooked and used in so many different ways. These GMO FREE Garbanzo beans are great.
