Sprout breeding

The sprout tower and the sprout gar­den are sui­ta­ble for lar­ger quan­ti­ties of sprouts. The­re are a total of 3 levels available on which the sprouts can grow sta­cked on top of each other. This method can the­r­e­fo­re be used to save space on the win­dows­ill. The seeds are wate­red 2 times a day. The sprout gar­den has slight­ly hig­her ger­mi­na­ti­on trays com­pared to the sprout tower and is the­r­e­fo­re par­ti­cu­lar­ly sui­ta­ble for wheat grass, for exam­p­le. For very small seeds, the fleece paper is neces­sa­ry so that the seeds do not fall through the holes in the ger­mi­na­ti­on tray. The rung tower does not requi­re any fleece paper as the base is not per­fo­ra­ted. Here the water flows from level to level through the red siphons. The Keim­li ger­mi­na­ti­on tray is best sui­ted for slime-forming seeds such as cress and rocket becau­se the seeds need to be well ven­ti­la­ted. The sprout tower or the sprout gar­den are also sui­ta­ble for this, while the holes in the ger­mi­na­ti­on glass would beco­me blo­cked by the gel-like lay­er of the slime-forming cress or rocket and the sprout glass is the­r­e­fo­re unsui­ta­ble. Red clover is also not sui­ta­ble for the ger­mi­na­ti­on jars. Slime-forming seeds are only spray­ed once a day and not watered.
