  2. @Natasha_Jay I like it apart from the #sprouts They are just Satan's gonads 🤮

  3. I recently learned that it's quite easy to grow sprouts yourself, so this is my "harvest" of mung-bean sprouts. After less than six days, this is the yield from 40g of mung beans, grown in a beverage carton. :) I'll probably only make half that much next time. 😄

    Given their freshness, they're very crisp/crunchy. Slightly more than 300g in total.

    "Join Sarah Williams at Devonport Library for this Love Food Hate Waste Workshop – grow your own micro-greens and sprouts.

    Learn how to cultivate these nutritious greens at home, from seed to harvest. Participants will make their own tray of micro-greens to take home so please bring a plastic container and lid such as a shallow take away container.

    Micro-greens and sprouts have nutritional value and are also a cost effective green food that you can grow in your home all year round, saving plastic and food waste.

    We’ll get hands on and make dips and dressings using the micro-greens and back of the fridge items – showing you how to get creative with reducing food waste.

    The workshop will also cover practical advice on how to avoid food waste in the kitchen including #MealPlanning and how to store fresh produce to help it last longer.

  5. US friends!

    Now that masses of our skilled farm laborers have been rounded up, caged, or deported, and our food safety scientists have been fired and regulations gutted…
    Did you know you can easily grow sprouts at home in 5 days? If you’re fancy, you can even call them “microgreens.”

    You can buy a bourgeois system like I have, or just buy or make a sprouting lid for an ordinary Mason jar!

    Enjoy!

  6. Okay, let's give this another try with #coffee ...

    1. Surveying the strawberries I transplanted last night, settling #sprouts into their own containers, so that they can grow out into full #plants and give sweet wild & white soul #strawberries.
    2. The little #freecycle depots in my #neighbourhood. My list of #curbscore items is a #blog post unto itself.
    3. The two #KoFi subscribers who have given early #encouragement for #ReadyAndResilient. You make it possible.

  7. Marigold sprouts, seeds planted maybe a week ago or so. I set up a few more pots and I put a lot more seeds in them, probably too many, because I am clueless about the proper way to do things.

  8. Some of the sunflowers are growing nicely and some of them seem to not be doing anything at all. I wonder if it has something to do with them being in different containers? 🤔 Looks like there will be more than enough in any case 😅

  9. @MaQuest So, one thing that not all the articles seem to talk about is the possibility of bacteria -- with contaminated seeds being a source (only get seeds from a reputable source). I used to grow my own many years ago -- and might start doing so again -- but I know I stopped because of concerns about contamination. I learned a lot from this article, which could be helpful for others when growing #Microgreens and #sprouts...

    #SproutSafety: 10 Ways To Kill Bacteria on Sprouts From Seed To Plate

    Updated on January 4, 2025

    "Whether you’re a seasoned sprout grower, or looking to get started, it’s always a good idea to take a closer look at sprout safety. We’ll show you how to kill bacteria on sprouts throughout the sprouting process from seed to plate. A large part of growing safe sprouts is keeping things clean—everything from your hands, sprouting equipment, to the seeds themselves. It’s also vital to use water that’s of drinking quality to rinse your sprouts."

  10. @UschiAachen Ich liebe Rosenköhler, herrlich, am liebsten nature mit etwas Butter und Macis [Muskatnuss, Herr Müller] oder mit Maronen. Hier kann man sie am Strunk kaufen, super frisch. Werde mal die Quiche versuchen. #Rosenkohl #Sprouts

  11. This is good, good news, y'all.

    The #RodaleInstitute is helping #GeneralMills transition GM farms to organic farming, aka farming without chemicals -- as #RobBell puts it: that thing that for thousands of years was just called #FARMING.

    AND #Sprouts is the fastest-growing retail grocery in the USA.

    Whole episode is great, but what I'm referring to is 07:15 - 15:20.

  12. Noticeably more apps do not have granular notification settings. Looking at #Crumbl, #Lowes, #Sprouts, for example. No way to differentiate between promotional vs my orders notifications. Only option is “nuclear” disable all notifications.

    Assuming this is backlash to “Ask App Not To Track”? 🤷‍♀️

    (And yes, I know how iOS Notifications settings work, with the variety of options there. I’m talking about what comes *out* of the app itself. The quality of the user app notification experience has degraded significantly over past few years.)

  13. To my English followers: we, the German lovers of #sprouts need your help. We have a voting which veg is better.
    Rosenkohl (#Brusselssprout)
    Spinat (Spinach)

    Sprouts are behind spinach at the moment. Please help.
