Biggest question I have about running a microgreens business in an urban setting - and only Curtis has addressed this (years ago on his urban farm) - is what do you do with your spent soil? You either have a rather sophisticated composting setup or you're getting rid of it somehow...

At the exchange rate at the time, this comes out to around $4,582.5 USD at the time of filming :) and that's for 40 hours of work a week. People are losing their minds, but after operational expenses it's probably not much more than working a job that pays $25 and hour. That's.. pretty darn reasonable for any job that requires skill, know-how, and marketing.

Pretty cool to see someone so passionate about what they do in their spare time share the details. I take it this was initially his pet project after working in restaurants and seeing the need first hand. Nice to see how it's turned into something profitable and something they spend time together doing. The only downside to this kind of thing is that I can't see how they'd ever take a vacation without getting other people to come in and help out since much of the business revolves around weekly regular deliveries.

@ImmersiveReactions Ай бұрын

You could easily pay a close friend or family member 200 to 300 dollars to do the deliveries for the week. They are doing 250 flats per week and 25$ per flat is like $6000 per week. Highly doubt they are making that much. But even if you cut that down to $3000 per week you 100% could still pay someone to deliver for the week.

So, you have to not only be the grower, but also be the guy that brings in contracts and customers, the delivery guy, the janitor, and running a family on top of all that. If you don't have a clean image then finding customers could be hard. And, you have the advantage of your restaurant experiences to help guide you and make you more comfortable dealing in this market. People have to consider all of these things before jumping into a big project like this. You make it seem easy. It's actually a lot of work and dedication. If you care a lot about your social life or have a short attention span then this is probably not for you. I would test to see if you can handle 1 tray first. Then, move up the size of the garden. Start small.

I mean if you watch the video it seems feasible. Micro greens really do demand a premium in the vegetable market because no one really produces them at a large scale, hence the high price. $25 a flat is actually relatively cheap as many growers charge closer to 40. They’ve got a very efficient system going though being able to do 1000 flats a month. If you were to try this yourself it’d take a lot more than 40 hours a week to hit those numbers until you gain experience and expertise and are able to get every single aspect of growing down to an exact science. They also have the business connections and brand value to actually be able to consistently sell that quantity, building up a good reputation and clientele like that can take many years. So yeah, it’s definitely feasible but it’s also a lot of work to get where they are, just as any small or side business is.

How much moisture is being generated in this basement? I see no vapor barriers to protect the floor joists. Fans only move the moist air around not ventilate it. Their home looks very new which means it is very airtight, I'd really be concerned with the air quality in the home.

Kenny S not sure I agree with you in that everyone is an expert at everything. This is not my experience, most people are not expert at anything

I never claimed to be an expert, I was simply asking a question and sharing some general knowledge. Funny thing, I find most people are idiots, not experts. As evidenced to by Tony and Kenny's comments.
