You might have heard about spirulina already, or maybe even dare to try it in its dried form only to find out it is horrendous. Well, that’s true, it is, except when it’s fresh ! (trust me I wouldn’t believe that either before I tried growing some)
Sadly,... researchers found out a nasty secret: most spirulina on the market today is full of toxins and heavy metals due to the water used to grow it in industrial conditions.
When I discovered that, I immediately threw mine in my plants (they loved it) and decided to grow my own. Which ended up being a great idea because fresh spirulina doesn’t have any taste at all indeed ! This allows me to use it in many different ways.
In this course, I’ll show you the easiest way to get fresh spirulina at home. You’ll even learn how to automate your culture so that the only thing you have to do is to harvest it when ready !
Spirulina is super adaptable which means anyone can do it – this course makes a perfect project to do with kids to teach them about plants, basic chemistry and nutrition.

Additional Care Info:
In order to make sure my spirulina is well, I like to take a look at it under a cheap microscope once in a while which allows me to see quickly if anything else is present in the water.
As long as your culture doesn't smell or look suspicious you should be fine. Please make sure to consult a specialist if you're planning on using your spirulina extensively or feed it to a young person, this course is for informational purposes only – the platform and creator deny any responsability.

Note that if you want all the vitamins and proteins and other nutrients spirulina can give you, it can't make those without access to the elemental building blocks they're built from. You have to feed it a complete diet if you want it to give you a complete superfood! Spirulina doesn't produce oxygen in order to float - oxygen gas is the waste product of photosynthesis, which it will do whenever it is in light and its other needs are met. Providing good light from the sides of your grow tank will mean that the spirulina trapped in bubbles of oxygen on the top of the tank don't block the light from the rest of the culture. The portion of the culture at the top should be the easiest to skim off if you don't want to disturb the whole culture as much as the usual harvest methods.
