Is there a MINIMUM amt. of produce you need to use this? Or just larger quantities? Thanks.

No I don't think there is a minimum as long as you are reasonable about it.. I don't think I would do less that about a quart, because why go to the trouble otherwise..I usually do about 8-9 lbs, and that fills it up so if you bought 4 at of strawberries for instance you would only halve about 1/4 of the pot filled. I hope this helps! Just contact me again if you have other questions. I have used it for a large number of things

Yes directions do come with it. The only fruits not recommended are the fuzzy skin fruit as the fuzz tends to make the juice cloudy. I also take the juice and make jellies, combining several different juices to make new and wonderful treats. I love this piece of canning equipment. You can also use the bottom part for a casserole with the lid!

You can use as little as you want you just need to make sure that the water pan never boils away all the water.

A great product. I have used it going on two years for Blackberrys & apples. A nice juicer. I fill both the fruit container and the water---takes about an hour to tap off the juice. No problems & no seeds.

I think it is probably best to use at least a couple of quarts of fruit....otherwise the concentrated fruit juice may be too watered down from the steam.

Yes, If you are buying the large containers from one of the big box stores, you should have no problems, if you are useing freash parsley then it wont work. Hope it helps.

In the USA it must be grown organic by you for you to state you're selling organic produce. Organic produce certification in foreign countries is beyond my realm of knowledge; I suggest you ask the seller or do further independent research online. Have a great day! :)

Either someone doesn't know the methodology of use or they received an improperly functioning unit. I am on my third FoodSaver.......the first two were of the more economical variety and didn't last for the heavy use I put them to.......this one functions they way it was meant to........no problems! Just learn HOW to use it.....read the book for heaven's sake. I have a large garden and put up huge amounts of frozen produce, freeze large amounts of wild game and beef, chicken and fish. Wouldn't be without it.

I had the small and would usually have to do an average romaine in 3 parts. The smaller size is best if you wash your lettuce as you use it. Just don't overload it to save wear on the gears. I have a larger draw cord type now and prefer it but use with the same cautions: start off slowly and let it "spin up" to save wear on the gears.

It won't be too much. Use 2 dropper-fulls. This quantity in a 1 gal can will keep all your house plants healthy.

If you are using the low setting for less dense items, then you sometimes have to juice things like kale and spinach and collards twice. I sometimes mix the loss greens with more dense things or wrap them to be more efficient. i.e(Wrap the kale around apple peices or beets)

I don't know. Depends on the vegetable I would say. I haven't used it very much.

The directions call for 1 tsp of vegetable base to 1 cup of water. Hope that helps.

Depends on your needs. I used the entire package to get 13 plants through a nasty drought. The plants were in the ground and I bore holes in the soil around the plant and dropped some crystals in. Worst case scenario if you use too many will leave you with crystals working their way to the surface. Not a concern with me. One tablespoon per US gallon should be plenty for lots of applications.

Nope. This is for very small amounts only. In my opinion you would be better off getting an electric juicer.

Yes just fine I just ordered a 490 cfm 6" for it but I have been using a 4" 290 cfm and i works fine I was using a 400 mh to veg and a 600 to flower now I use a 600 to veg andva 1000 to flower so I had to upgrade to a 6"! So you will be just fine!!

I am thinking possibly 1 1/2 qt. I know they will hold at least 2 regular size cans of veggies each.

Yes, but you won't need to use it much if you chop the produce in small pieces. Watch the videos on YouTube from " discount juicers " and they will give you lots of info on how to juice with the best results.

I limit batch sizes to around 75 grams. More than that and you won't get good rotation of the beans. Also the unit will last longer. They do burn out pretty quick though.

Yes, that's how you make the ratios. Make sure the entire plant has a milky coating. If not shake the mixture more to mix it better.

Produce at Albertsons. Though I haven't found the large bag there. Found it only once at the local Costco but it seems they don't carry them any more.
