Don't Throw Trays Away ... A Head Start on Spring Planting

Here is a quick tip for getting a headstart on your spring gardening. Since we are located in Hawaii, we have a year round growing season but what we do with harvested trays can be easily replicated no matter where you are once your outside temperatures allow for spring planting.

My neighbor here who is using our kits has had similar planting success and ensuring we don't waste our precious seeds and plants. There will always be many seeds that don't have room to grow and they will flourish in the new planting. She has been especially successful with wheatgrass also.


Both our hydroponic mats and wondersoil are ideal for this activity. We have placed them both in container gardens and directly into the garden. Simply dig out an approximate size in your garden surface, place the entire mat or tray of wondersoil, and level out the surface. You can then grow more microgreens, grow them out longer to make baby greens, or let them grow out to full sized plants. Last year we let a couple of Kale plants grow out and they provided wonderful leaves for our stir fry's and omelettes.
