So if I was to go forward in the venture with a grow tent what would the best plant(s)? I was thinking about cannabis sativa 🤣 j/k. Al mentioned numerous choices saffron medicinal herbs wasabi roots edible flowers exotic flowers from cuttings and microgreens.

I like to show the community a drawing that AI drew for me when I specifically asked for a low pressure 4 tier microgreens aeroponically no system that I've ever seen has ever sprayed the top of the plant. This may work for a soil based plant system but never for microgreens. If I'm wrong please tell me.

I was really getting really geared up for this adventure (AI calls it the honeymoon stage) I found it absolutely fascinating on doing this as a side hustle now that Im retired. I have a room in my basement that I planned on using it measures 13x8 that sits on concrete slab living in northeast of 🇺🇸 I live in an area where its quite common for basement to get flooded and suffer water damage and if it isn't immediately addressed you have a much more of a serious problem if not taken care immediately will turn to mold. From what AI is telling me and given the fact that my plan was to set up a mini microgreens operation in my basement it would become a breeding ground for mold it wouldn't matter how I choose a high press or low pressure aeroponic system or dwc even a hybrid system combining the best of both worlds even if grew it traditionally I still run the risk of mold. Not to mention algae and getting fungus gnats, aphids, and whiteflies. Is any of this remotely true? We are not even going to even discuss the setup cost ie equipment, racks, lighting, and ventilation system and ya the big one here the cost of electricity and labor. I'd like to hear the truth from an actual grower. You always here about the good the earning potential which Im sure there is. But no one every talks about the bad and the ugly. Thanks for your time Ron

Hello Everyone, 👋🏽 I am joining you from 🌇New York🍎. I am currently in the process of starting a business partnership with a co-worker. We are starting an indoor micro farm here in Brooklyn! I hope to connect with people and build a foundation for an efficient, self-sustaining farm that provides great food and jobs to our local community. 🤝🏽 Feel free to chime in🎤 if you are also in the start-up phase. We're still tweaking our business plan but have started filing paperwork. Below I have a poll. For those of you just starting out, or those of you who are already up and running: What did you find to be the first (irrational) thing that overwhelmed you? For us we took a month narrowing down a list of 20+ names before we came up with Roots & Ryes LLC we are also doing business as Second Seed (value added products). We had some really wild ideals, but NotebookLM made some great suggestions on things we should cut from the list until we got down to the two names we have. we decided to make Second Seed the name of our DBA for products because our goal is to also make products from what would normally be considered food waste. 🥬🗑️
