🚨 Your Chance Is Slipping Away…
Five days ago, I opened up a special window for MFP members to lock in the lowest price ever for Microgreens Business Coaching. Some of you jumped in, but I know some of you are still thinking about it. Here’s the truth: ✅ $49/month or $499/year gives you full access ✅ Weekly live Q&A calls with me ✅ Marketing strategies that actually work ✅ Tools, spreadsheets, and proven systems ✅ A supportive community of growers pushing forward On October 1st, that price is gone forever. It doubles to $99/month or $999/year. You already know you want to take this seriously. Why pay more later when you can secure your spot now? 👉 Join today before the price goes up:https://www.skool.com/microgreens-business-coaching-5361/about

MBC is totally worth it folks! If you wanna turn this into a real business, this is the way.
Important Update About This Group
The other day, I shared that I’ll be closing down Microgreens for Profit. I want to expand on that for those who missed the post or had questions. Here’s the reality: ✅ My goal has always been to help serious growers build real businesses. ✅ Managing multiple groups has slowed that down. ✅ I’d rather put all my time and energy into ONE place where growers can get the coaching, tools, and real answers they need. Microgreens Business Coaching is that place. For those of you ready to take this seriously — whether you’re just starting or growing full-time — that’s where you’ll get my full support, resources, and weekly calls. This group will stay open for a few more days, then everything moves over. If you want access to: ✔️ Monthly coaching call ✔️ All my tools, apps, and spreadsheets ✔️ A private community of serious growers Join here: https://www.skool.com/microgreens Let me know if you have questions — I’ll be in here for a few more days before we shut this down.

Used soil- how to "dispose" of it
After harvesting, what do you do with all of your used soil? As I'm starting to slowly but surely increase production, the soil problem is also increasing 😆 I grow in an apartment so I don't have a good place to properly compost it. I've been keeping it in a tote and when I go to see family every few weeks I empty a few bags on the edge of their woods or in their small compost bin. They also live 45 mins away so it is not an efficient or sustainable longterm solution. I thought about the possibility of reaching out to the Ag department of the state college in my town to see if they would/could take it. Any suggestions for effective ongoing solutions that you have tried or are currently using?

I agree with Mark’s recommendations above. We have a composting company that will collect it but costs $20 a bin. There are farmers who also like it for their chickens cow and horses.

@Isaac Abbey ahh well ya chickens pick at the soil and like what is in there. Others really like left over shoots and stems after harvest. Just take what is from the tray.
What Size Refrigerator?
My goal is to have a 150-200 tray setup. Currently at 20 trays I can use our personal fridge for storing clamshells overnight with our regular food for a single farmers market. Thinking ahead to additional markets and restaurants/distributors it’s clear a dedicated refrigerator is a must. If settling at 150-200 trays a week can a single size commercial unit work knowing I’m harvesting, storing, selling, and then doing that again a time or two each week or is a double door commercial unit best?

Well not quite the same but may be helpful. We worked up to +/- 130 trays a week. We had looked at used commercial fridge but the size, weight and expense caused us to not. We bought at 17 cu ft full fridge that can be converted to freezer from Sam’s Club. Able to easily regulate how cold to keep it. Eventually we bought a second one as we grew. We fully fill both. Happy with them! One thing that we did not consider I wish we had… we sell to a lot of restaurants, and their shells are bigger (the 64 oz shells to house 4 oz or 8 oz of greens) so they take up more space. Hope this is helpful!
Growing Microgreens Outside
Hello, I was wondering if there is anyone in this community that does grow or has tried growing microgreens outside? Is this possible? What kind of setup do you need? Which microgreens grow best in this environment? What best advice and recommendations would you give to someone who is considering trying this? Thanks!

I agree with @Jim Flach . If selling weekly at farmers markets or stores or restaurants I see the weekly planting and watering and harvesting to be tricky outside. Never know for sure how much sun or water (rain or a hose) they will get. If little critters will come munch on them. Now, I've heard of folks growing in a greenhouse...that's more do-able, but still tricky I think to ensure solid weekly yields.
