Very good! I have mixed feelings about kale, though.

Nice photo. Is this for sprouts or are you growing Kale? Not sure what micro greens means.

I grown micro greens in a little soil and eat them just before they get true leaves.

Thanks. I often sprout seeds in a 1/2 gallon jar with a cap with a screen on it. No soil, just pour out the water and replenish a couple times. My brother lived on a sailboat for awhile long distance sailing. That was the only fresh greens he could get for weeks at a time.

That is a nice and interesting subject for macro, I haven't seen that done before.

Good idea for my macro lens. I'll start some sprouts today! I also use a jar with a screen and no dirt. Mason Jar Co. has different tops for different uses. Or check out a health food store. Thanks for the idea.

It's nice to have a subject that fits my depth of field! I do sprouts with no soil in a jar, but the advantage of these micro greens is they start on the soil surface. That way, I can see the sprouting process on a very flat surface.
