    This is so weird. This morning, I was thinking about starting sprouting and microgreening. Mainly because I live in a rural area far from a decent greengrocer. I buy fruit and veg weekly, but I have to be careful to choose which ones will last. I recently had to throw 2 heads of broccoli which hadn’t lasted more than a couple of days. Growing or sprouting will enable me to have fresh veg every day. Thank you for your very timely video.

    While no seed you will every buy for sprouting would be GMO, they just cleared the first GMO 'home garden' seed and you can only buy from the manufacturer, organic can be important, also if you don't know the exact cleaning process a particular company uses, the seeds have been stored a bit to long, or if you bought seeds that where not sold explicitly for sprouts/microgreens you can and should disinfect your sprouting seeds, its a relatively easy process, there are some great databases online for safety information, but generally most seeds can just be soaked in white vinegar for a few minutes before soaking in distilled water to sprout, that cleans any mold spores etc.. from the seeds that can multiply easily in a sprouting/microgreen environment. Simple step to keep you safe.

    I recently have a abnormal lab test and had to go for a cancer screening biopsy. I saw a Dr Berg video saying broccoli sprouts and great 👍 anti cancer food so I want to try and eating more of this wonderful food. Thanks for the tutorial. Now I know it's easy to do

    • @Hertz2laugh
      @Hertz2laugh Před rokem

      Because humans do not have the digestive system that herbavores have, eating plants *_always_* becomes a double-edged sword - humans will get benefits from plants but also be harmed by plant defense chemicals.
      For example, broccoli is packed full of vitamin C, very good and healthy, yes? Of course.
      But did you know that broccoli also contains plant defense chemical compounds called *_goitrogens_* that temporarily reduce your body's ability to uptake iodine?
      Yep. And it's particularly damaging to people who already have minor thyroid issues.
      Cows and sheep and other animals don't have this same problem with broccoli because they have wildly different digestive systems that can nullify the goitrogens.
      What does this have to do with cancer?
      Well, eating plants is a double-edged sword - some plants have anti-cancer properties, but they can still be damaging other areas of your health.
      More importantly, all vegetables and fruit contain carbohydrates.
      All carbohydrates break down into simple sugars like glucose, fructose, sucrose, etc.
      Guess what cancer cells use for energy? Yep, glucose.
      In other words, while a vegetable can provide anti-cancer compounds, it also comes along with carbohydrates that cancer will use for energy - a double-edged sword.
      Luckily it's not all bad news.
      Since you mentioned Dr. Berg, you must be somewhat familiar with the "keto diet," yes?
      Well, humans cells can use two kinds of energy:
      1) Energy from carbohydrates (glucose)
      2) Energy from fat (ketones)
      So what, right?
      Well, turns out the vast majority of cancer cells can *ONLY* use glucose for energy, and not ketones.
      That means - here comes the big punch line - if you decrease your carbs, and increase your ketones, you can make it very difficult for cancer cells to grow and survive in your body while also ensuring your own cells have plenty of energy to do their thing.
      Unlike eating vegetables, eating a meat-based diet (no-carb, ketogentic diet) will not help cancers in any way because meat, sea food, eggs, butter, salt, and water are packed with vitamins and minerals just like vegetables, but they don't have any of the carbohydrates that plants do.
      If you're worried about cancer, consider doing a no-carb, meat-based, ketogenic diet ("carnivore" diet) for 90 days.
      If you're worried about fiber and cholesterol (you shouldn't be worried about either of those things but many people are) then you can go back to eating vegetables and sprouted plants afterwards.
      I'm betting that you'll be feeling so good after those 90 days that you won't be in a hurry to add fruit and veg back in, but I'm just basing that on my experience.
      Anyway, whatever you choose to do, I wish you the best health, and a long, happy life filled with people who love and appreciate you.
      Peace and love. ✌🏽❤

    You mentioned that sometimes your broccoli sprouts gets slimy one thing I would’ve done after I took them out of the stainless steel containers is running through a salad spinner, which will really really take the excess moisture out and prevent them from becoming slimy. The other thing that I do is when I was going to soak my seeds to get everything started I add some ocean minerals, something like that to really bolster up the nutritional value of it other than that terrific video. Thank you.

    I've been eating peanut butter and banana sandwichs my whole life but we slice the bananas about 1/4" thick and putthem on top of the peanut buttered bread. It's a whole lot easier to eat that way. I love the idea of the sprouts. I'm going to try it on my next sandwich.

    When I struggled thinking what local in-season foods to eat, I thought of sprouts and microgreens as well. If I grow them myself, they're organic, local, in-season and with love. As much as I love bananas, pineapples, mangos and coconut water, they may not be good for me in snowy winter. Carbon foot print is another consideration. We really need to rethink what we consume on a day-to-day basis. Jill thank you for your thoughtful video.

    A couple days ago I was thinking that I needed to start growing sprouts again once I get moved and have the space for it. With this new method, I can use my mason jars for something else, like overnight oats or pudding. I use pureed bananas and whatever flavor I want to make it. This doesn't take up as much space as the mason jars I have been using. I'll have to wait until I move to order anything. I can imagine my plant based homemade chili served over wild rice with sprouts to top it off. YUM YUM!!Thank you for sharing this. :)

    You should know that the little fuzzy parts of the sprouts are totally normal. They’re micro “hairs” meant to help draw moisture into the sprout, and it’s not mold. That said, you should let your nose tell you if your sprouts have gone moldy. Any kind of sour smell is not normal and means that they’re probably not safe to eat.

    Anyone tried to sprout beet seeds? Beets have so much good nutrition.

    Thanks for this video! I have been using mason jars and plastic containers with paper towels and its just not working for the amount I sprout. I was about to purchase a bigger plastic tray but I much prefer these steel ones.

    Ha Ha - that banana would've fit a little better cut in half. That's one of my favorite sandwiches, peanut butter and banana. Well, I don't have the sprouts, but I'm thinking I'm going to have to order those pans.

    I was so excited to watch this video today! I just grew some sprouts and harvested them this morning. I use the glass jar method. Where did you get the jar holder and the stainless steel sprouting containers? I really like how you can use those containers for sprouts and micro greens and grow them without soil!

    Could you please share the advantages between growing sprouts vs microgreens? Health/nutrition wise, especially!? Also, after reading and/or viewing several directions on growing microgreens I’ve never seen them not grown in soil! To which I figured that was the main difference between the two, is how they get from seed to harvest. That’s what drew my interest toward microgreens, as I’ve tried many times several years back growing sprouts using then jar method and every attempt ended up in moldy seeds.
    Appreciate any info that you could share!
    Thank You!

      Sprouts are ready to eat within a few days. Microgreens take much longer to grow. Honestly for me, microgreens are a bit of a hassle. Dealing with the trays of dirt in the kitchen area is a bit of a mess and adds extra expense.

    I loosely fold a paper towel and place it in my fresh spinach container. One day later, the paper towel is damp, so I change it. This keeps the spinach fresher longer. Would this also work to preserve the sprounts in the tupperware container?

    That tortilla is stiff. You need to warm it up on top of a griddle to soften it up.

    I had to come back and watch this again. I might have said, I've wanted to try growing sprouts and microgreens. My attempts have always been fruitless. This method you are showing us, might work for me. You said 3 days for the sprouts and 4 days for the microgreens, to get that kind of growth. I mean, what could be easier!?? I don't have a window to set those in front of. I'd have to get a grow light or something. Thank you so much for showing us this method.

    Have you done a cost comparison which includes the cost of your grow screens? How many sprouts do you need to use to "break even"?

  • @marymelnyk3679
    @marymelnyk3679 Před rokem +1

    I totally agree. Don't smell fresh and tastes bad. Thanks so much. I'd much rather have fresh at home at .225 cents per unit cause that's 4 times more of the fresh (healthier) trusted stuff you grew yourself.
    $4.00 for 1/4 the amount of past shelf date of slime, no thanks

    Love this method, and will switch to those trays. RN tho I'm using so much water removing hulls from the sprouts. Any tips on how to get that done without using lots of water?
