 +=== Procedure ===
 +
 +The seeds have been completely submerged in room temperature tap water for about 8 hours in a cup, then put into the seedstack container. The seeds will sprout without this step, however, giving the seeds 8 hours in water seems to have an effect on the overall mass the sprouts will yield.
 +
 +After putting the seeds into the seedstack container, they need to be flushed twice per day (morning/evening). To flush the seeds, about 500ml of water are poured in the topmost container (if you have more than one) and will drain automatically at the bottom of the container. This might also be a good job for an Arduino controlled valve/pump.

 In the early days we still used the Internet as a mere extension for our ego where we could show what we have done and how cool that makes us to a broad audience. With better cams and more and more people changing their MO away from themselves and towards HOW we are doing things, so that others could benefit from the confidence that it obviously can be done as well as free information how exactly it was done so that others may just copy and build upon it. Videos made the transfer even easier. In the early days we still used the Internet as a mere extension for our ego where we could show what we have done and how cool that makes us to a broad audience.

-Now we start being able to produce the things we need on a very individual level with almost no considerable bootstrapping time. If we can go to Amazon and have them build anything **exactly** to our requirements and deliver within 24 hours for a fair price: Awesome. Until then: On-Site 3D Printing FTW. +Now we start being able to produce the things we need on a very individual level with almost no considerable bootstrapping time. If we can go to Amazon and have them build anything **exactly** to our requirements and deliver within 24 hours for a fair price: Awesome. Until then: On-Site 3D Printing FTW. The 3D printer market is expected to grow from 100,000 units in 2014 to about six million units in 2018, Digitimes reported referring to the Industrial Economics & Knowledge Center (IEK) under Taiwan's Industrial Technology Research Institute.
  
 We have basically achieved what probably has inspired most Star-Trek fans too: A system (the computer) we can ask any question and get a broad scope of possible answers to make up our own mind about it (Internet) and now: Replicators. They might not work even close to real-time yet, but who cares? Never forget: It's not your time. You can do something else in the time it takes a 3D printer to produce the thing you've tasked it to print. We have basically achieved what probably has inspired most Star-Trek fans too: A system (the computer) we can ask any question and get a broad scope of possible answers to make up our own mind about it (Internet) and now: Replicators.
