Wow! I did not see this topic coming, but have been researching this very lately. This is site is quickly growing beyond excellence!
Does anybody have ideas or even plans for a small DIY greenhouse that could be used throughout cold new england winters?
Depending on the scale you need, a coldframe might fit the bill. You could add protection with a row cover like Agribond, too. Most greens are much more cold hardy than other veg.
Finally! I can't tell you how excited I am to see you guys giving attention to microgreens. I remember voting, and disappointed that this coarse didn't make the cut. Man, I'm happy.
If you have a south facing windowsill without a draft, just put them there. I use my windowsill in spring to start off my tomatoes and it works brilliantly.
A good starter book is, Microgreens: A Guide To Growing Nutrient-Packed Greens by Eric Franks and, Jasmine Richardson
Is there anyway to grow microgreens In your home?
Yes. The same methods used to start seedlings for transplanting indoors will work to grow microgreens for harvesting. Most libraries should have a selection of books on indoor gardening to get you started, if the information presented here by Chef Steps isn't enough. Also check out hydroponics.
The seeds used are types specifically for microgreens or just regulars and we snap the greens when they are babies?
Where i can buy for all this seeds so i can start to gardening ...
Try https://sproutpeople.org . They have lots of bulk seeds to try as well as growing mediums. I've had great seeds and service from them in the past. :-)
Instead of pulling up the whole plant will just snipping off the top allow for a new plant to come up....like the cut and come again packs of lettuces?
I have a very large storage without window or light. can this be used for growing?
I have access to water and electricity- How about grow lights for indoor?
Yes. I've grown micro arugula, broccoli, beets, amaranth, sunflower, kohlrabi, radish, chard, and a few others -- all in a windowless room with pretty basic fluorescent grow lights.
