I just posted this in another one of these Garden threads so not sure if I should be cross posting or not but where I live is very rural and very not diverse so a lot of the foods and ingredients that I enjoy eating are hard to find around here. The mung bean sprouts in the grocery stores around here are always yellow old and slimy so I decided to try growing my own once I realized I can just do it in a colander basket on my kitchen counter in just 5 days here they are on day three! Let me know if you have any questions it's surprisingly easy and love to be able to grow something in New England Winter!! Happy to share my setup!

This is interesting. I think I will try it.https://youtu.be/epZN6m-jxQ8?si=z3Jqx31ENvhnxELK

years ago I accidentally buried a paulownia piece of brunch. it sprouted later although it looked dead when I buried it.

That growing by branch thing looks good - but not much use if you do not already have the type of plant you are looking to grow.
Might try it with my Mulberry tree - though I already have pretty good success with regular cuttings.

Let us know how it is. I was looking at something similar if not it.... Didn't look like the lights could be lowered. But the shelves were adjustable.

Putting it together now it's a lot more sturdy quality than I was expecting which is nice! will reply with a photo of it once I get it put together I'm putting it together in between meetings haha.

It's all good, until it isn't.
UGH What a morning.
I've got an alpaca, my favorite one - OC, down with what is probably meningeal deer worm. OMG no warning, no notice, nothing weird until yesterday. And OC there are no large animal vets here.
Guy couple miles down the road has a massive herd of high end llamas and I, out of desperation, called him.
He says it's super common and is shocked that I cannot just call up a vet, like he does and get the NSAID for livestock.
I have called and traveled to 8 vets this morning. I have taken a sample with me to have it tested and turn around is 2-3 days. Which he could be dead by then, AND OH BTW they don't treat alpacas anyway, but we can send away the poo and test it.
OMG.
I swear I'm going to loose my mind.
He wouldn't, or maybe couldn't, even get up this morning, partially the hill's fault. DH said he had trouble getting down to lay down yesterday, but he was up and grazing last night, no problem.
I rolled him over at lunch so he could at least sit up, and now it looks like he has the shivers and sometimes shakes his head.
The ONE vet, 30 miles away, who MIGHT be able to do ANYTHING, can't until she sees him and I'm a listed client and she can't come until the 23rd. OMG
This all sounds so fricken screwed up to me.
