4 Packs Sprouter Trays with Cover Soil-Free Healthy Wheatgrass Seeds Grower & Storage Trays for Garden Home Office

I bought one of these for my mother and decided to try one out myself. After the sprouting tray arrived I headed over to the local Asian Market and bought a bag of mung beans. I do some basic gardening, and this is the most gratifying "gardening" experience I have ever had. You can see the seeds start to sprout almost as soon as they are done soaking. You watch as the sprouts grow within a couple of days. My sprouts would probably have been usable after 2 days. They would have been very good at 3 days. By 4 days I drained the water from the bottom of the tray and put the whole thing in the refrigerator. I probably put in a bit too many mung beans. I could have probably filled one gallon freezer bag and half of another with my bean sprouts. Plus, they were the freshest, best-looking bean sprouts I have ever seen or tasted.As I have been telling my family and friends, this is the easiest "gardening" I have ever done.The tray worked great. As some of the other reviewers point out, this is for medium and large seeds/beans. I also bought some sprouting lids for Mason jars that I am using for smaller seeds.

I love how easy is was to use this to grow my wheatgrass in. I will be using this for other things in the future.

It works nicely for mung bean sprout. It would be better if the height was just 1cm more, and had 1 or two small holes for the sprouts to breath.

A nice clean effortless simple system for growing your own crop of fresh sprouts.The container is a bit large and would grow enough sprouts for several weeks, so I fashioned a plastic divider that fixes snuggly across the middle so we can grow two varieties at once.I harvest the sprouts and store them in plastic containers placed in the fridge which seems to keep them fresher long than sandwich bags.

It grew seeds well but it was just far too big for my needs so it was returned. The dome was very useful though in creating a green house effect.

I love this thing. It grows pea sprouts / pea shoot microgreens super easily. So far I’ve only tried SustainableSprout brand “Peas” in it but it has worked like a charm with them. I’m currently trying to find a cheaper US supplier of the pea seed so I can buy them in bulk.Instructions that have worked for me:First I soak the seeds for 10-12 hours, then I put them in the tray with water in the bottom (so the water does not touch the upper tray or seeds).I then put the clear lid on and cover the whole tray with the amazon box it came with (perfect fit so consider keeping that box! ). For three days I keep the sees in the dark but (!) I spray the seeds twice a day to keep them moist and I change the water once a day (I have found that, in my climate, I only need to change the water when the seeds are initially sprouting/ in the dark / before I turn on the grow light and before the sprouts start growing roots - once the roots grow the water funkiness totally goes away - this might be different in other climates).From there I put the sprouts under the 9 watt GE full spectrum e26 sun / growing light (Will try to update this with the model name / number). This is super cool / does not get hot at all so the sprouts love it. I have the light in an adjustable lamp and move the light every couple of days higher so it’s about 2 inches the tallest sprouts. I the the lid off of the trays during the days once the sprouts are about an inch tall and mist the sprouts as need just to keep them slightly moisten every now and then / not wet tho (kind of like produce in a grocery store. Keeping the lid on for times when you can’t check on them / are away might be enough. In the final days before harvesting, I keep the lid off so the shoots touch the the lid / are free to grow.Voila! Microgreens in about 8 days. They way I grow havest them I cut wash the root base in my sink lightly cut the roots (and keep, they taste great in stir fry ) then I cut the stems and leaves. Both sides of the plant require little washing (the roots more than the leaves. The middle part of the pea shoot (the seed ) looks alot like a split pea if you remove it’s shell. I don’t yet know if it’s edible! Guessing it is.I will post shots of my last harvest. I was running of seeds and only used one sustainablesprout 10 oz pack of Peas with about 130 seeds. Before this though, I have grown 2 packs (about 260-300 seeds) per tray with great results too.Note: I have a strong feeling the GE grow light’s soft and even spread is essential for this system to work (or any good adjustable , grow light that is not hot), putting these units in a hot window vs using a grow light might accelerate mold or over heat the plants ... but it’s worth a try if you don’t have a bulb yet. Also I think the lid on this unit is essential to keep the seeds and the young sprouts from drying out. These are just guesses and things I’ve read from other growers on the net.Also this tray is not designed for small seeds like broccoli seeds (the holes are too large for some small seeds and I lost a few seeds this way). You can grow small seeds however IF you get some medical gauze as a liner. I tried “germination paper” from one seller and it didn’t work for me. I found a good deal on some ace bandage medical gauze by the yard / in a roll tho. That works great. Otherwise, I hear there are other trays for smaller seeds that you can buy. I love this system tho. Hope this helps!

Very nice size...I can't imagine needing anything larger. Instructions show how to put wicking cloth/etc down for smaller seeds (Alfalfa, etc) on the already provided holed insert tray (THE WHILE TRAY HAS HOLES FOR ROOTS). Was very pleased.

The media could not be loaded.  Nice tray and very few seeds fell through. It comes with a plastic lid as well I forgot to show that in the video. The plastic lid help the seed to really start growing in the first week and it is just a great product I'm going to get a second one so I can have one growing while I'm serving the other one to my chickens. This is my winter solution for my chickens, but I can also grow other things besides wheatgrass if I get two trays and that's my goal.

Great for moong sprouts u can get a nice harvest within 5-7 days
