Easily Grow Kale Microgreens with Kratky Hydroponics

🌱In this video, we share with you how to Easily Grow Kale Microgreens with Kratky Hydroponics! This no soil system has been a favorite of ours. And today with the Hydroponic Kratky method we'll be growing vibrant Red Russian Kale Microgreens. If you're a busy bee or just prefer a hands-off approach to gardening, the Kratky method might just be your new best friend. No fancy equipment or constant monitoring after germination required – just set it and forget it!

✨️✨️ But what exactly is the Kratky method? Developed by Dr. Bernard A. Kratky at the University of Hawaii, this passive hydroponic technique involves suspending plants over a nutrient-filled water reservoir. No pumps or air stones needed here – it's gardening made easy! Unlike traditional hydroponic systems, the Kratky method is perfect for microgreens, thanks to their short growth cycle. With just 4 to 8 days of root suspension, you'll be harvesting nutrient-rich greens in no time.
In this tutorial, Mandi walks you through the entire process, from seedling to harvest, sharing her tips and tricks for success. Whether you're a seasoned gardener or a newbie looking to green up your space, this video has something for everyone. ✨️✨️
