How to Easily Grow Kale Microgreens with Kratky Hydroponics | Full Tutorial | On The Grow
🌱 Item’s seen in this video are linked below - In today's video, Mandi guides you through the simple yet incredibly effective Kratky method for growing vibrant Red Russian Kale Microgreens. If you're a busy bee or just prefer a hands-off approach to gardening, the Kratky method might just be your new best friend. No fancy equipment or constant monitoring after germination required - just set it and forget it!
✨️✨️ But what exactly is the Kratky method? Developed by Dr. Bernard A. Kratky at the University of Hawaii, this passive hydroponic technique involves suspending plants over a nutrient-filled water reservoir. No pumps or airstones needed here - it's gardening made easy! Unlike traditional hydroponic systems, the Kratky method is perfect for microgreens, thanks to their short growth cycle. With just 4 to 8 days of root suspension, you'll be harvesting nutrient-rich greens in no time.
In this tutorial, Mandi walks you through the entire process, from seedling to harvest, sharing her tips and tricks for success. Whether you're a seasoned gardener or a newbie looking to green up your space, this video has something for everyone. ✨️✨️

How long do those reusable grow pads last?
hello what spray are you using?
During germination? Do I need to water? Or just ignore for 4 days?
It costs you 80 cents per tray of coco coir is that what you mean?
Your fucking cool 😎 keep this up
Can you grow all kinds of microgreens like Red Kale, Amaranth...etc? Also I see that there is no really black out period as there is no black tray on top. Do you also have these selling in Europe? Maybe Amazon Europe or anything. Thank you!
Hi, thank you for the information shared. I followed your procedure for making antifungal at home, I would like to know how I should use it, do I spray it on the microgreens seeds after I spray the water? How long? Until when does the seed start to germinate? Lately it seems that the sunflower seeds become moldy after a few days of placing them (after a 8 hour soak + a few days of germination) in the container with the coconut fibre, they develop a fuzz that looks like the beginnings of mould, and last time they rotted the roots during growth. Could it be that the seeds purchased are contaminated or old, or something similar? Thank you for your attention, greetings from Italy.
The only issue with the reusable silicon medium is a lot of wasted water and cleaning process. While using cococore everything is compostable. Thank you for sharing and great video content.
Is there a 1010 mesh tray? I only have the 1010 trays both with and without holes. Cannot find any mesh 1010. Can your silicone medium be used the same way without the mesh?
How do you calculate amount of luminance you need per square decimeter?
seed hole?
Great video, thank you. Is it possible to pre-mix the worm castings and grow medium in advance? I.e., what is the shelf life of grow medium that has worm castings mixed in?
I would like more info on the setup please and what nutrients are used.
Where are the hulls?
Coir salt is not a problem?
Recycled paper towels is not used paper towels. It is made from saw dust from the mills or from places cutting a lot of wood. It will still be new they just use secondary products to save waste.
Suns free
what are the nutrients you have used.?
Love the cats AND their outfits! This video is EXACTLY what I was looking for! I'm growing it for me, not animals, but your technique is exactly what I was hoping to find! Thank you so much for posting this video!!
What is your dilution formula for the ocean solution?
No dirt?
Reveived my order today. Thank you mandi for the free labelers :)
Bom dia,acompanho você e estou achando ótimo 😊 . Só um probleminha,sou do Brasil e só falo o português, então seria ótimo se tivesse no mínimo legenda ❓🙏 . Acompanho as perguntas e respostas para me orientar melhor. Abraços 😇
What does blackout do for it?
Hi, Very nice video, thank you for sharing with us. Can you enlight me with how big the cans are 😋? Thank you.
where can live starter culture be purchased? or perhaps freeze-dried... if that can be used to grow?
can i ask what size is the tray?
How much lux do microgreens usually need initially? Pls do reply.
What is your humidity levels?
How do you eat that
Hey, do you use organic microgreen seeds?
Awesome! I use soil and feed to my chickens and geese!
Nit sure bt leaves on my tray keep falling in between
Hi, great video, I find mine very thin and weedy, maybe to long with weight. I would like to know what knife you use?
Would putting the sand in boiling water get the sterilization done?
It may take a little more time than the coir or soil but no dirt to deal with.
why are they pink? also are they suppose to taste little bitter?
i do it all he time
Spirulina
That is a lot of work for $0.15 in savings. mix shaved hardwood with coco choir and peet moss cheap and works perfectly
do you eat all those stems and roots?
❤❤. Super video.. Love it.. Are you shipping to Delhi, India? We can place order for 500 pcs..
im just here for your smile!
You may already know, but when it comes to opaque surfaces and screen material, the slightest bit of opaque and the even the largest holes in a screen, still block a significant amount of light or air flow or liquid flow. Of course light manufacturers use opaque plastic or opaque glass, to more evenly distribute the light, at the expense of a portion of the light being absorbed behind the plastic/glass, which makes the light appear dimmer. So for growing algae, opaque plastic would more evenly distribute the light, which may reduce hot-spots and get a more consistent temperature and more even light exposure, but at the expense of getting a significantly lower amount of light. When you are dealing with direct sunlight, opaque white plastic helps block some of the light and heat and because the sunlight is soo intense, it is fine. However, when you are using low wattage artificial lights, the amount of light that is blocked is very significant. You can take a LED light with an opaque white plastic lens cover and cut or pry off the plastic lens, and you will notice a HUGE difference in light output. However, you will also make it likely dangerous, since the live electric circuit board is now exposed and could be lethal or start a fire, so I don't recommend it for anything other than testing for educational purposes.
Mandy, If you want to cut down germination time for Parsley, you need to soak the seed in ice cold water for 24 hours. once you put them in the coir, they start to germinate the next day.
its shorter because you cut higher up
Couldn't you use black oil bird seed? If not, why?
Thanks for the great info guys! Is there a clear benefit to using the silicon mat rather than sowing straight onto the mesh 1020 tray?
I am curious with the flood tray what your average water usage is for something like sunflower? I am starting my own farm and trying to figure out rough utility costs. It would be a great help thanks.
I need to learn this method
