Starting Instructions:
-
Quantity: Use one tablespoon of seeds per sprouter.
-
Rinse: Initially rinse seeds in clean water to remove dust or debris.
-
Daily Rinsing: Rinse sprouts three times daily, ensuring they drain properly to avoid sitting in water.
Soaking: While an initial soak for 8-12 hours can be beneficial, thorough rinsing can also effectively start the germination process. This keeps the seeds hydrated and initiates growth.
Growing Tips:
-
Rinsing: Regular rinsing keeps sprouts fresh and mold-free.
-
Oxygen Exposure: Ensure seeds drain well to maintain contact with oxygen.
-
Using Rinse Water: Utilize drained rinse water to nourish houseplants.
Harvesting: Sprout mung beans in complete darkness to avoid bitterness. Harvest when sprouts are 1.5 to 2 inches long. Wash thoroughly under cold water to remove seed husks before use. Store in the refrigerator for up to four days using our Care Bags for extended freshness.
