Soaked vs sprouted seed

organic dirt, never dirt from outside especially if you plan on putting the plant inside the cage or them to forage on. Don't the dirt with chemicals in it either. Home Depot had a big bag of organic for under $3.00 outside in the garden section.

Depends on what greens I'm trying to grow, if growing veg greens I do them in my vegie patch which has good soil plus compost, as for growing seeds such as millets, Canary and conola I grow these in a good potting mix in big tubs while my wheat is dine in small tubs that I can place in the aviery and swap them around, as for my weed collection I do them up the blond side of my house in a make shift sand pit full of beach sand. I believe grow them in what ever situation that works or suits you but make sure that any sand or soil you buy is of a good grade this will help lowering the risk of toxins in your soil, an old mate of mine has the year change over soil cycle in which he buys soil 1a year, sits in the back of his yard where he waters it and conditions his soil with added lime and calcium. After a year and his crops are due to be planted he then turns this soil into existing soil then adds seaweed feeder to soil and plants crops he believes that by the time the soil has vegies and fruits growing in them any toxins should have been rinsed out and all the nutrients helps grow his crops. I can't say this doesn't work but to much time taken for my liking so I buy good soil, lets say he has some of the best fruits and veg I've tasted but his bird breeding skills aren't much to be desired.
