So grateful for this channel and the amazing insights. Started my own small microfarm in south africa. Thank you

[GerardoSoto-bl]

Thank you for the advice I’m looking to start to grow in my apartment and sell local but first educating myself before I dive deep this helped a lot 🙏🏽

Hi Donny, I like your channel. I want to learn about growing of micro greens. Your channel is helping me on many ways. Thank You.

Great videos, I've watched them all. Would like to see some deeper dives into topics you haven't covered yet. Comparison of initial dry seed weight versus final yields, pricing strategies, etc. Cheers

Donny thanks for all you do. My wife and I are starting our micro greens business and we are so excited. My question I have for your is when do you think your new software will be ready we are looking forward to using it. Best wishes.

im about 6, 500$ deep into starting ym business. No joke you're 100% why im starting this. Once i have the initial investment paid off, (hopefully within half a year or so) the cost per tray vs return is absolutely crazy. AND you get near infinite personal microgreens for friends and family. Almost half my cost went into building an insulated shed in the back for weather control since i don't have a garage. that sucked, but a one off thing. It's a lot of time if you want to do it at scale and is no joke a job, just one spread out and super chill.
Donny you're the man

Awesome channel and videos, good work - I really do appreciate these kinds of videos.

Love the videos and I'm about to take the leap. When you buy seeds does the label tell you how much by weight to add to a 1020 tray? I also live on LI. Thanks

[JulieL-gydu]

Great video. This was more helpful than many others I have seen. One question i have, do you know how many trays you can get out of that soil bag? the 3.5 cubic feet. Thank you

[silviap.]

Thank you so much for such a value information!

[paulanthonysalim]

Thank you so much for creating this video.❤

Hey Donny, not sure if you can help me with this. I saw a bunch of videos from different sources. I found yours really with an amazing content congrats.
My question is: What about growing microgreens without soil. Meaning with water and something such as Hydroponic minerals for the seeds?
I saw a video comparing microgreens from soil and from water and I could not see the difference.
My interest on that is basically to reduce the waste generated from the soil after every tray change

[AndyMcBlane]

Good video! Would have been nice to know finer cost details like price per kWh and cost of seeds per tray

[Dracitamo]

9:31 missing link pop up ;) I'll dig through your videos and find it to watch it.

[Onyxaxe]

Excellent vid Donny. Still a fan and appreciate everything you do. Also, the recording and editing quality is top tier.

[axelkummerlowe]

Hey Mate, thanks for your content!
Can you do a video about soil / different soil types?

Thanks a lot - keep up the good work! :)

[alissamarie]

great information!!! Love this video! <3

Hi Donny,
Love you content a lot.

I do have a question for you.
When we sow the seeds per tray, I understood from your videos that we shouldn't be sowing too many or too less seeds, now, would you be able to tell the quantity of seeds thats to be used per tray ? Size of the seeds will obviously be a factor. Even then, would you be able to guide me here ?
