Guest guest Posted April 2, 2012 Report Share Posted April 2, 2012 If I can manage to change my thumb to green, I am going to be growing my own spring type greens. I wasn't able to get in contact with the woman who had the used aerogarden so I can only do one crop until I get another one. Maybe she sold it but she could have called me back to let me know. I was counting on herbs and greens. I needed another for lettuces. They will be coming to check me out if I were to get more aerogardens as they would look at electric bills and a big jump might make them think I am growing some of those plants I have been seeing when I was trying to see tomato plants on youtube. All of a sudden when they got bigger I said aloud, " that is not a tomato plant " as the leaves showed more clearly. My back and knees are not hurting me that much YET.  It is probably cheaper to buy them at the store though (spring greens that is). I saw an interesting salad in the Microgreens book I got recently. They had chefs in the back with some recipes.   I really like the clover and radish sprouts in a salad. I can recognize the sweetness of the clover and the little nibbling bite of the radish. Whole radish is too much bit (shark's teeth) for me, unless small and not very hot. I don't know if my broccoli sprouted as i couldn't taste that. Next time I get it going I may nibble on one at a time to see if I can recognize it. The alfalfa, it is easy to taste but not sure I'd recognize the difference between it and something else. Carolyn Wilkerson  To: sproutpeople Sent: Monday, April 2, 2012 12:42 PM Subject: Re: Carolyn: You're gonna love my sunnies  Carolyn: Lucky I got to use the computer, Alan is out around the corner at the laundromat and I'm going now to go and get him. In the salad, the big green leaf on the left is part of a package of Organic Spring Mix that I had purchased. I like to mix it up a bit. And these sunnies and pea shoots on a salad is absolute heaven. I can't imagine eating anything else. lol Melody > > Thank you for sharing. I also went over to another youtube saying FLAX and found it was yours, too, as I recognized your voice. The flax seemed to be doing really well. The salad over there was really looking good. There was something there with a bigger leaf on the left, what was that? Did you have any larger greens under all those sprouts? >  > I am thinking of putting my bean shoots in peat pots to hold until I am ready to plant outside. I want to reclaim my sprouting trays to sterilize them and get started again. I think beans may go bad if I don't. The water is dark off them now. Don't seem to have a lot of leaves on them, mainly at top. but some are a little different as i do have different types of beans. I am going to plant them near one another when I get them outside. I did buy some of those peat pots that you put in water and they pop up. I will pop up just enough for the sprouts I have. Their sad beginning shouldn't affect their progeny, if they produce.   I still haven't done anything with my sunnies. I wonder if they would sprout on paper toweling like the flax (if they do)? >  >  > > Carolyn Wilkerson > > >  > > > To: sproutpeople > Sent: Monday, April 2, 2012 11:02 AM > Subject: Carolyn: You're gonna love my sunnies > > >  > Hi.
