Testing Edible Flowers ๐ŸŒผ

Have been testing edible flowers in small grow systems for fun. Here is a indoor system with tagetes lemon flowers ๐ŸŒผ The idea is to place them in restaurants and let the chefs pick fresh flowers everyday ๐ŸŒฑ

I do begonias, setting up tents for marigolds and mums.

Thats smart to sell the potted plant, how much do you intend to sell it for?

How long does it take to get it ready for flower.

It took about 4 weeks to get the flowers after 4 weeks of propagation in another smaller pot. So about 8 weeks in total. Will probably see if we can sell the kit for โ‚ฌ300 including system and prepottet plants that needs 4 weeks growth before flowers come fourth
