I'm looking at a PEA gardening bit (Microgreens), it says:

>> Grow a full tray of greens in an inert medium with only water.

My question:  What is an inert medium?  

Sometimes I do my microgreens in soil, sometimes in those jute pads ... I'm thinking the jute is inert, is it?  Is garden soil ok to use for this BB?  I don't consider soil to be inert, yet I see folks using soil for the BB.

Also, what is a full tray?  10x10?  10x20?

Determining the difference between Bockings 4 and 14 is done by consensus. It's like trying to identify the difference between twins.

I'm sure glad that he's gone. Now I can read this tiny ad in peace!
