You can use organic batting, organic soil, baby blanket (sold by sproutpeople) or any type of growing medium that will keep the sprouting seeds moist. I have even used organic cotton balls. You don't need (or want) to use any fertilizer or worm castings for your microgreens-they grow in just a few days and don't need nutrients, since they are releasing their own nutrients in the quick growing process. > > > > > > > > > > I've been following the thread on how to grow sunnies on coir, but I'm > > still a bit confused.
