Comments (4)i grow microgreen myself and tried using natural sunlight and growing lights. result ... growing lights ... too long, does add weight but not exactly good to consume. growing under natural light ... i set them out after 3-5 days, depending on which time of the year. its better this way. the leaf mass is better and people like it that way...See MoreMicro Greens seeds

Comments (5)I too do a bunch of different mixes post harvest. I have found one pre-done mix at a super good price, from sproutpeople.org It is called the French Garden Mix. At 14.00 a lb, it is an outstanding deal. Not only is the price terrific but the different species tend to germinate at roughly the same time and it looks good too. In fact, if I had to do only one type of mix, this would be it. I have about 30 different species on hand at most times to mix myself but this French Garden mix is my "go to". Since there are not any of the Brassicas in it, you do not get that unevenness when germination starts. This particular mix is without a doubt the best one you will ever grow. Very delicate looking compared to others....See MoreSharp convection micro or micro + Breville toaster oven?
Comments (14)We have the Panasonic convection microwave and the Breville convection toaster oven. Our main oven is a GE Monogram convection oven. 1. The Breville toaster oven is the best toaster oven we've ever owned. During Christmas visits my adult children dubbed it the magic oven. It toasts bagels perfectly because toaster settings can be customized. It bakes frozen pizza well enough that it can be considered more than barely edible in a pinch. It crisps homemade pizza to perfection. I have convection roasted game hens in it and cooked tuna to medium rare in minutes after searing it's edges on my cooktop. Overall it's one of the best small appliances I've ever owned. 2. The Panasonic does all of the above, has a larger capacity EXCEPT it is not a toaster. We toast a lot of things that wouldn't fit in a regular slotted toaster so toaster ovens are a must for us. We live in Florida so we don't need two full size ovens. We also (contrary to most people, it seems) use a microwave oven as a full partner in our array of cooking appliances. (I don't know if it is still available but the Microwave Gourmet cookbook by Barbara Kafka is a great resource for fully utilizing a microwave oven. She has such great recipes that I often adapt the seasonings for use in a regular oven also). Thus, we are happy to have the Panasonic with the dual use capability. Although we did our installation several years ago and I can't remember what we paid, I'm sure the $200 price quote for a Panasonic trimkit is way too much. You should check on line to try to get a better deal. HTH....See Morepaulwhitson
