Seeking An Organic Coconut Coir Supply
I've been growing hydroponically and would like to add some trays with coconut coir to my racks. Looking online for a brand that's organic seems to be a rabbit hole that is going to take forever! Do you have a source in the US that provides a good product at a reasonable price you'd be willing to share?

if you shop on Amazon, Coco Bliss has a 10 pound brick of coir for $28.99. There is another organic brand for $24.49. I have used Coco Bliss, by Plantonix company. Also you might check with a local Nursery to see if they could order it for you.
Tray Identification
How do you identify your trays? The current system I use is to label them with a removable sticker with the crop and expected harvest date.

I use painters tape and a small piece of paper. I write what it is, grams of seed and the date planted. Also, growing medium if I’m doing a side by side comparison. When I harvest the tray, I write the yield on the paper part of the label and any changes in seeding rate, if needed. When I first started growing, I kept all of the tags for review and decision making. Now, I keep the tags only if I’m trying to get the seed rate dialed in.
Sanitization
Hello! How do you wash and sanitize your trays? Thank you!

@Henrietta Sandford Zerotol needs to be diluted. It is very caustic to living tissue, undiluted. I wear glasses or and rubber gloves when pouring it.

Looking for red sorrel seed!
Hello folks I have difficulty to find large volume packs of Red wined Sorrel. Can you help me to locate a supplier. Most of online stores just provide 100 seeds in a pack which is very expensive for microgreens production.

I have been growing Micros since 2019 for friends, family and myself. I have decided that I want to turn this in to a business.
