in that gorgeous red arrow radish. All right, guys. This is what you’ve been waiting for. [Music] Now, you know, we make growing micro greens as easy as can be with our selfwatering adapters, and a lot of you have been asking me to put a kit together. That way you can grow a bunch of micro greens, harvest and eat those, or you can grow them out a little bigger into baby greens and transfer them into bigger containers and even grow mature plants. I’m going to show you what we’ve been putting together on whatnot, and people over there have been getting a fantastic deal. The only thing is we can’t really do that for everyone, but we can make a few available as time permits. See, each one of these takes a long time to print and we can only make so many in a day. So, I’m going to show you one of the starter kits that we put together on whatnot. And I’m going to make it available on Etsy, too. And if you don’t mind going to whatnot, you can get it a lot cheaper. I’ll explain that in a second. But let’s put one of these together. Now, besides all the adapters, which I’ll explain in a second, we’re going to start off with this microgreen grower. This is what I use to grow all of our peashoots, and you can also grow bean sprouts and corn shoots with it. Now, doing it this way is really easy. No nutrients, no grow medium. It’s great for beginners and kids love it, too. It’s a good way to get them interested in gardening. Now, this one comes with its own humidity dome. So, we’re going to put this one in here. They come in different colors, so you just have a random color. Next thing we’re going to toss in a little bit of clay pebbles or lea or hydrogen. It comes by many different names. This will be enough to do a container about this size, so you can get started right away. We’re also going to toss in some nutrients. This is enough to make five gallons. And you also get one of these stickers that have a couple of QR codes. One of them will take you to a playlist on my YouTube channel that has all the videos on all these selfwatering adapters. The other one is my Amazon store where I get all of these supplies. That way, after you learn the basics, you can scale up, buy in bulk, and save a lot more money. Now, the exciting part is our adapters. We’re going to start with our two hybrids. Now, when I started, we’re in gardening and we asked a lot of our friends who happen to be other gardeners, preppers, homesteaders, and that, what jars and bottles do you use a lot of? And most people said mason jars. So, our first ones that we made fits a ball mason jar. This one’s a regular mouth. And we also have one that fits a wide mouth. This is what we drink sweet tea out of. Now, each one of these is called a hybrid because there’s also another small adapter in the middle that fits your plastic Coke bottles. These are the 16.9 Coke bottle, Mountain Dew, Sprite, Pepsi. Pretty much are all the same. We did that because we figure everyone’s got these sitting in the recycling bin right now, right? We’re going to toss both of these in. These sell for $ 199.99 on Etsy. So, kind of keep that in mind when we get to the total of this and you’ll see what a great deal you’re getting. Now, since these screw on and you can’t take it off once you started, if you’re going to grow just micro greens to this stage, that’s fine. That’s all you need. You won’t need to refill. But some people wanted to grow them out a little farther. So, they asked me to make a refillable one. And we started with this, which fits a long neck bottle. We’ll call this root beer. Right? You start like that. That’s enough to get you through microgreens. If you’re just going to eat micro greens, you don’t need to refill it. If you want to grow them out a little further, you can pull this out, refill it, toss it back in there. You’re good for another 2, three days. So, we’re going to toss that one in there, too. Someone asked if we had this one that could be refillable. So, just to give people other options, your plastic bottle can be refillable, too. And if you’re just going to grow microgreens and you don’t need to refill it, this is the one that we started with. That’s our little baby. It’s really easy. It works great for this size container. These guys just sprouted a couple days ago. Kale. So, if you got a bunch of these sitting around that you’re not using, these work perfect. We’re going to put two of those in here. And this is my favorite. It’s a Gatorade adapter. My son developed this one because he was drinking Gatorade and he noticed the bottle was bigger than the 16 ounce bottle and it’s really tough. Not like these how flimsy they are. So that will last a long while. After he made that and we’re sitting there looking at it, we went down the juice aisle and we noticed that other bottles had the same size top. So we got one of those and sure enough it fit. So, this one’s cranberry juice, but you’ve also seen grape juice and apple juice, all kinds of juices in this, right? So, if you look down your juice aisle, this one’s going to fit a whole lot of the bottles that are down there. This beauty right here, it’s with a V8 bottle in that gorgeous red arrow radish. Now, if you grow in a bigger container and you use something this big, you don’t have to worry about refilling it. But if you do use one of our refillable ones, you can grow something to the baby green stage. Kind of like this amaranth. This one’s almost a month old. Isn’t that wonderful? See the bottle there? And this is made possible because we keep refilling it. You can’t do that with a little soilbased microgreen grower, right? Isn’t that cool? We’re also going to throw in a packet of microgreen seed samples. There’s going to be eight different samples. So, you get a variety of color, texture, and taste. So, each one of these is pre-portioned for a container about that big. There you can see it better. So, if you got a bunch of these laying around and you’ve got the adapters, you can grow your own food. So, you get the microgreen grower with the humidity dome, clay pebbles to get you started, nutrients for 5 gallons of water, eight samples of micro greens, and seven of the selfwatering adapters. So, this kit when sold separately is well over $100, but we’re going to put this on Etsy right now for $49. And like I said, we can only print so many in a day, so there’s going to be a limited quantity. We might start with 20. If it’s sold out, check back in a couple of days and we’ll try to keep up as time permits. We’re still selling the individual adapters, and the holiday season is coming up, so we have to print all of those, too. Now, if you’ve never been on Whatnot before and you use my link, you can get an extra $15 off of this box. So, instead of $49, it’s only $34. That’s for over $100 worth of stuff. That’s why we have to limit quantities. I wish I could do that for everyone, but it’s just not possible. So, I hope that I can help some people out, especially as we’re getting towards Christmas here. Now, the $15 is only for the first box, but this still a great deal for 49. Now, over on whatnot, we’re doing live demos on how to put this stuff together. Then, we’re talking about how you can harvest some of them and then take some and plant them out, grow them out to baby greens and even to mature plants and whatnot. We’re going to be having fun with games and we have a lot of giveaways, usually our packets, seeds or an adapter. We usually give away stuff every 10 minutes. So, if you’re on Facebook or Instagram, you can just comment whatnot. I’ll send you a link for that. If you’re on YouTube or one of the other platforms, check the description or my profile. New people or whatnot, make sure you take advantage of that $15, you don’t even have to use it on my stuff. You can spend it on somebody else’s shop. They have all kinds of stuff there. Everyone else, if you just want to go to Etsy, these will be there along with the buy one get one free sale for now on the adapters. That’s going to be ending soon. So, make sure you get yourself watering adapters so you can grow all winter long and get you lots of practice in before the spring. All right, keep on growing.
