Also my solarpunk-inspired indoor grow station is working great so far! Have already used the microgreens in meals; kale & spinach have sprouted, just need to thin out. Can hardly wait for my cilantro! I’ve missed it, dont trust the store-bought bc of the CDC cuts

For anyone else watching grocery bills go up & worried about food-borne-pathogens - go to your local farmers market if you can! It’s been cheaper than the big stores, & they often have cheese, eggs, flour, etc. in addition to produce.

PLUS locally-grown food is safer bc they don’t use poo-water like the big produce companies/farms do 🙃 #republicansstarveus

cilantro is such a specific thing to miss too — nothing store-bought tastes like the stuff you cut ten minutes before dinner. how long did the microgreens take to be usable?

They literally grew in like a day! 😂 They were from a seed pack from dollar tree, too, instant nutrients for like 50 cents
