can it be used to grow sunflower microgreens?

I used it once and it did ok... but I would try again using soil next time It grows wheatgrass great!

Yes, you can. I grow all kinds of things in my Aerogarden. They sell empty pods just for that reason.

I don't see why it wouldn't--it's still sunflower seeds(white) called safflower seed--squirals don't like this seed!!

I expect you can, but haven't tried it myself. I use these in my soymilk maker. In the past, I have tried sprouting soybeans, and I just used soybeans from the bulk bins at Whole Foods, and it worked fine.

You can use it, but without a reflector such as: Hydrofarm FLCDG125D Fluorowing Compact Fluorescent System (bulb that comes with the hood is for vegetative stage, colder blue spectrum) much of the light will not be directed towards the tomato plants. Use the warm bulb for the flower and fruiting stages. Found this lamp to be of some use for supplemental fill in areas not well lit by the primary light source. Serious (small 4'x4' up to 6'x6') greenhouse vegetable growers are better off with: http://www.htgsupply.com/Product-Digital-Greenhouse-%20600w-HPS-Grow-Light ,use the standard 92,000 lumens bulb that comes with it for flowering and purchase the GrowBright 600w MH Conversion Bulb (72,000 lumens) ($44.00) for vegetative growth.

Its ok for low light plants like anubias or java ferns. I also got some duckweed that thrives. But no co2 needed for those plants :)

I think it would. I use it to grow my plants from seeds. It works well for me in providing stable light source and a bit of heat.

You can, but you must keep it moist, spray it with distilled water, reverse osmosis water, or collected rain water, make sure you collect the water from a clean source and not under a synthetic source. I hope this satisfies your answer. Also to add keep the container a quarter to have full at all times, and don't keep the plant in full sun, if you do the plant will burn and dry along with the soil.

you probably could , I just do not have any luck growing anything unless it is at least a year old , my green thumb does not work for anything small , good luck it does not hurt to try , you could also look into fruit trees to grow on patios

Well this is very simple but it is also very small it is for a desktop garden. You could use it with a small single LED or CFL grow light configuration.. (Grow light would have to out side the unit).

I don't see why not. I bought some organic wheat (not this) and used it for grass seed. I was not about to put treated seed on my lawn. It grew beautifully.

I don't see any reason why it wouldn't. We use black oil sunflower seed in ours.

I use it strictly for small sunflower seeds. I do not purchase my food online...shipping costs would kill me!!! I feed 50# every three weeks. Enjoy your birds!

Absolutely! As the previous post states...use it with confidence; plants easily utilize the additional nutrients and it shows.

You can but you must make sure that any seeds, sunflower chips, etc., are small... the size of red or white millet (max). Anything bigger will clog the openings.

Yes, you can plant it. I use it to make bread and for sprouts. It sprouts relly great. You defi niitely can plant it

i don't see why not. i planted it in nw wyoming. the temperatures here get down below freezing, limited rain fall and the soil is poor. it came up within 10 days. and has already started coming back although the temperatures are still low. it is the only grass seed i have had any luck with.
