Q10: Can I reuse the planter trays for multiple batches of microgreens?

Q10: Can I reuse the grow mediums for multiple batches of microgreens?

DO NOT reuse our grow mediums!!!! After the first use, your grow medium will have more bacteria and potentially mold spores. To ensure a plentiful, mold free harvest; compost or throw out your used grow medium and use a new one. With every seed refill, we give you new grow medium so you don't need to worry about reusing your grow medium. Click here to get your fresh grow medium and seeds right at home!


Fun Fact:

Chickens LOVE the roots in your used grow medium! Simply pull the roots and grow medium up and place it where your chickens are. They'll run over and start picking out the roots!

(Side note: I take my root carpets to local chicken farms and sometimes they'll give me eggs. with egg prices now, thats a bargain!)
