Product Info.

Vermiculite – a crushed rock that is heated and forms a popcorn like effect with great aeration and water holding ability. An ideal medium for short-term microgreens, for longer term pot plants you may wish to add coconut fibre and perlite along with our compost solution. The perlite which is a white colour is similar to the vermiculite but has slightly higher air holding capabilities again it is a crushed rock that has been heated, the slight downsize is that it also has a higher dust content which makes it not as friendly to use.

Unlike some other coconut fibres this has a fine texture without the large clumps of bark, it does have some fibrous material this also makes it ideal for growing vegetables. Select the Product Name button to go to that Product Or Click to hide.

Dolomite

Dolomite (finely crushed limestone) is a mix of calcium carbonate 59% and magnesium carbonate 35%.
Why take a supplement when you can feed your plants e.g. wheatgrass, snow pea sprouts, this rich natural product, your plants will transform these minerals into a living food, a food that the cells of your body will understand instantly, they will take up exactly what they require.
Dr. Carolyn Dean writes of Magnesium, "When this mineral is part of your diet, you are guarding against and helping to alleviate health threats such as heart disease, stroke, osteoporosis, diabetes, depression, arthritis, and asthma."
Used in conjunction with our liquid seaweed fertiliser which contains humic acid, which, apart from having an abundance of trace elements itself, it also has the added benefit of making other minerals that it comes in contact with much more available for plant absorption.

Microgreen 330x245mm Kit 01

Basic kit 01 (Microgreen Rect. Tray 330x245mm) which gives you everything you need to get started except for the seeds. You get one tray plus a grill insert, 3 L of Vermiculite growing medium(crushed rock that has been heated to give it a popcorn like effect, good for holding air and water). 250 ml of bio activated organic fertiliser, 1 foldout insect trap, 1 Perspex tool for flattening the growing medium and pressing the seeds into it plus the option of a cover..

2xTrays 3x5W LED

Microgreen Base kit 3x 5W LED. There are many ways you can grow microgreens and some ways depending on the seed type, for instance, growing SnowPea and Wheatgrass, is made a lot easier if you are able to lift the grill above the reservoir, this gives more room for the large root mass and also means the growing medium can stay dry alleviating the problem of seeds rotting and causing mould. The SnowPea is the Queen of green leaf and is the base of all of my salads. This is why we include the 4 tab set that sits on the outside of the reservoir (part 16 in the picture). We have also made some acrylic tweezers which help you remove ungerminated seeds, (part 8 in the picture). An acrylic flattening tool (part 9 in the picture), it’s good to press the seeds into the growing medium before you spray them to ensure they come in contact with moisture, especially when you using the cover. We give you 2 types of cable ties one narrow and one wide, the narrow one is for attaching the light bracket to the stand and securing the cable, the wider cable tie is for securing the horizontal movement of the lights, also supplying a method of securing the sticky in stray insect trap. The power supply is 36 W, so you can comfortably add 6X5 West lights i.e. another shelf without purchasing another power supply or connectors (parts 12 & 13 in picture). Part 14 attaches to the base of the grill ensuring the grill does not sag in the centre leading to an uneven distribution of water, especially useful for potted plants and punnets. Part 17 is 6 punnets that will fit into the sprouting tray, normally you would use these in a taller shelf system, they can be either placed in the base or on top of the grill, personally I just used 5 which gives me a gap at the front in the middle and I place them in the base of the tray and I can easily see when water needs to be added, you may wish to start them on the shelf and then move them to another shelf where they can grow a little bit taller. We also give you 2 trays, when in stock a choice of 2 colours, having to trays is particularly useful if you’re doing microgreens that turnaround in 2 weeks, as you can germinate the next tray on the top shelf which is sitting above the lights getting their warmth from them thus exhilarating their germination. So if you are just doing 2-3wks microgreens in the trays such as Radish, SnowPea, Kale, Broccoli, then this small height space and is all that is required. You can also grow the Coriander and Rocket in the trays with the addition of the pelletised fertiliser or you can use the punnets which is a better option, but you will need to keep them trimmed or move to a larger shelf height.

The difference between this kit and the 25 W. kit is that this light is 100W, both lights have no fan, i.e. no noise. Our aim is to allow you to grow as much as possible using the smallest possible space & least amount of power. So this light would come in handy if you want to grow something that requires more power eg, fruiting or bud development. Like the 25W, it comes with a mix of 2 different types of white and 660nm red LEDs. Click to hide.

Capillary Mat + Stand

Here we see our Capillary mat and mini stand designed for our 3 tray types types, 1 of the main reasons for using the capillary mat is it makes watering very easy & you can take full use of the available depth of the trays ie more water less often. It's good to have a 2nd tray so if the water does become coloured you can just swap the trays and clean the one you have removed. The pot sits on the capillary mat which is elevated to the level of the overflow channel of the tray on the left & just below the top of the other 2 tray types. Click to hide.

Grill lifter set for 330x245mm trays

3 types of grill lifters (i.e. the white grill for the 330 x 245 mm Microgreen trays)
1 – set of 4 external lifters, used by themselves for increasing the reservoir and maintaining dryness of the growing medium e.g. for SnowPea Wheatgrass.
2 – set of 2 large lifters located underneath the tray in the centre to be used in conjunction with the 4 external lifters for stabilising the grill and increasing the water reservoir e.g. for longer term Microgreen such as Beetroot and Silver Beat or for thirsty potted plants like Mint.
3 – set of 2 smaller lifters located underneath the tray in the centre, stabilising the grill, used with punnets for medium-term microgreens such as Rocket and Coriander. The other use is with small potted herbs.

Veg. Storage Kit x 1

Vegetable storage kit - this kit consists of 2 cotton bags, one mesh bag, and a clip to seal plastic bags. Can be used to store leafy greens, sprouts, vegetables in general and can also be used as a shopping/carry bag also designed to fold into a small package.
This is the method I now use to store my sprouts and salad greens also other vegetables. Leafy greens & sprouts, it's best to store them 1st in a mesh bag, any damp material will not stick to the cotton bag (meaning you do not have to wash the cotton bag every time you change it). So the simple procedure is put the leafy greens inside the mesh bag, zip it up, place inside the cotton bag, then place inside a plastic bag that doesn't have any holes in it, gently squeeze the air out and secure with the clip.

Other advantages of using the Perspex shelf are that you can use a different type of pot plant i.e. that doesn’t use our rectangular tray, may be aesthetically more pleasing, also the Perspex shelf will diminish the possibility of spillage as it will collect 1st on the Perspex before dripping down onto either the floor or 1 of the lights in particular 25 W light is not waterproof whereas the 5 and 10W. and 100W lights are.

Microgreen LED Kit 15W-30W

Microgreen LED Kit 15W-30W
This kit gives you the parts and options to either attach 3 or 6 5W LED Microgreen lights to our stand or connect directly to a piece of wood e.g a cupboard shelf.
The advantage of these lights are that they are low-power, high quality (Samsung LED), they are only operating at about 80% intensity, due to the losses in the 2m attachment cable, meaning they will last a very very long time. They are also extremely water resistant so any spillage is not a problem and spreading 3 across the top of the trays gives a very even spread of light.
So you get the base kit (what is inside the red line and various options e.g. the power supply and breakout cabling can support up to 6 lights so there is the option of an extra 3 lights, what this means is that adding these gives you the ability to use 2 shelves if using our stand. Also if using our stand you you will need to choose the option of our acrylic brackets, which comes with cable ties allowing for securing the cable in a neat manner and also the attachment of 1 sticky insect trap per shelf or if you want to mount say to the underside of a bookshelf, then you have the option of a clip that can be screwed into the wood on the underside, coming with a nylon washer to create a small airgap for better cooling.

Microgreen LED Kit 25W

Microgreen LED Kit 25W
A 25 W. LED light panel with a mix of white and red LEDs, meaning you can grow a wide range of vegetables or even flower/fruiting plants. It comes with a 2m extension cable power supply and steel cable. We also supply cable ties which are much more flexible when connecting to our stands and also with regard to securing the cable to the vertical sections of the stand at the rear.
1 of the advantages is that the LEDs are enclosed in a reflective cone, this narrows the spread of each LED, meaning more intensity.
The only downside of this light is that it is not water resistant so you have to be very careful about spillage from trays above. If you do have a spillage make sure you get the sponge out and get rid of excess water as quickly as possible, if you have the time then there are a couple of preventative measures you can take the 1st 1 is just to run a silicon bead around the edges and over the screws heads, this will create a small dam that will enable you time to remove the water before it seeps down underneath, the other alternative is to cover with aluminium foil as you will see displayed in a later slide.

This is our 100 W. LED, which can be used for larger plants it comes with a mix of white LEDs giving it full spectrum with the addition of 660 nm red LEDs, allowing for a wide range of vegetables to be grown, along with flower and fruiting types. You can see from the picture that if you are mounting it on the top of the stand it is very easy as it matches our stand dimensions perfectly and just rests in place. The light is water resistant so light spillage is not a problem. The parts that come with it are 1- mains power cable connecting to the power supply which is mounted on top of the light, 1.8 m close, 2- metal cable connectors 3- and adjustable extension cable allowing you to move the light up and down, not really applicable if using with our stand but if using in another application could be very useful if your ceiling is high, 4- a connector plate which allows you to connect the lights together i.e. you could connect them 1, 2, 3 or 4 in a row and then you only need one cable to hold it up, which again could be connected to the movable extension cable, or you could increase the grow area by connecting 4 together in a square. The picture on the right shows a basil plant being grown on a pillory Matt, sitting in 1 of our Microgreen trays, the mid-front crossbar has been removed allowing you to easily remove the plant and tray if you would like to clean the base or for any other reason.

230mm Round Micro Green Kits - 1

This basic kit "Micro Green Kit 230mm Round Tray Kit - 1", which gives you everything you need to get started except for the seeds. You get one tray plus a grill insert, 2 L of Vermiculite growing medium(crushed rock that has been heated to give it a popcorn like effect, good for holding air and water). 250 ml of bio activated organic fertiliser, 1 foldout insect trap, 1 Perspex tool for flattening the growing medium and pressing the seeds into it. The kit also comes with a small cover which makes it easier to add the growing medium i.e. stops it falling down through the watering hole, there are also 2 supports that sit underneath the grill to ensure the optimum height of the grill in the tray.
Can be used to grow arrange of microgreens, personally I use a paper towel to cover the grill and then use vermiculite as the growing medium. It can also be used to grow small potted herbs, in this configuration you just add the herb to the grill, flood the grill until the roots penetrate into the reservoir below, at this stage you may need to add some of the nutrient solution to the water in the reservoir.
