Horaayy..there are 19 comment(s) for me so far ;)
she’s using roasted beans as a EXAMPLE…
I liked the short video, although there was 1 obvious mistake, I figured it out! I’ll have to try this out.
She is just using the roasted beans to show as an example and puts them in the pot. She describes only GREEN coffee beans are to be used right before that. Amazing that most people only see things instead of listen. Chimps do the same thing.
stupid bitch
Perhaps she is hoping to grow a “hot coffee plant”. That would explain the use of roasted coffee seeds. Good luck with that. I just want to know how long she tried to get those pots to grow before she gave up on watering them and culled the crop.
These videos are almost spam. Nice try but not full of any useful information and way too short.
Beans won’t germinate roasted. If you really want some, buy seedlings off ebay or something. Kona beans take months to germinate.
Why is she planting roasted beans? lol that is funny
in order to germinate coffee beans it does not have to be hot and humid, you got it all wrong, it takes about 60 days to germinate a coffee bean
hey the coffee bean you are planting is roasted it wont grow, who are you trying to fool here
This video won’t play for me. It just keeps loading and loading, It’s not my connection because all other videos are playing. Anyone else having this problem?
I love homemade coffee, but my machine lay dormant until coffeeloverstipsandtricks (.) com plugged me in!
These things take up to six months to germinate and I think mine too almost four. After that it won’t flower for three more years. One more thing is see alot of people wondering how to tell if the bean is roasted, well mine were white, other than that all I can say is by from ebay. Just to give some of you the heads up.
this lady isnt very helpful at all.
“Coffee bean plants grow best in tropical, humid climates”
Umm – ever heard of Yemeni or Ethiopian coffee? Not tropical. Not humid. Just an entirely different set of needs.
@DopeyBovineMan broad beans lol!
Ben Jorgensen you are right: those beans that went the soil in are roasted. The beans that grow into plants have not been roasted. The cherries are red, inside them the seed pods are pale beige, and inside THEM< the beans are green, with a fine caul or veil over them. Perhaps she didn’t have the real things on the day. Chris – the beans you buy to grind for coffee are not green. They are brown, because they are roasted, like the beans in this vid.
How do i know mine aint baked? are the ones baked i get with my coffe?
good vid, good stuff to know. but if im not mestaken those were roasted beans. or were those used because thats all you had and most people whould not know to difference?? not trying to pick atchya, just sayin. green beans are GREEN. ; )
