Great photos, thanks for the ideas. Never thought of using the

vermiculite. Those sprouts look yummy! Diane

i just found this and looked at it... and i think you are about to be

my hero....

your photos show the vermiulite and babys blanket (both appear to

have grown about the same -- where they?

you just put them in a plastic sandwich bottom (the glad thing with

the lids)... is that right?

were there holes in the bottom of the plastic?

did you just spray?

what was the round one, the top of a take home thing (metal bottom

plastic top)?

this is SO great, here i am struggling with wether to by a sprout

master, or go terra cotta and you use simple stuff i already own...

I am SO silly.
