Sprouts and Shoots
Sprouts and shoots are grown for their tender and nutritious young seedlings. Shoots are similar to micro-greens, being grown in medium and clipped along the stem, and tend to be large seeded crops, like peas, popcorn and sunflowers. Sprouts are immature seedlings that are eaten just after seedlings emerge and cotyledons open up but before any true leaves appear. The most popular types of sprouts are greens and grains, with notable health interest in broccoli or other Brassica crop sprouts. Growing Sprouts
Sprouts are best grown in glass or plastic containers, in seed sprouters or on mesh or screened flats in low light intensity. Plants are greened up within a few hours of harvesting or eating. Best results are acquired when seed is soaked and washed on a regular cycle.
Special Sprouting Directions: (jar method)
**Grow mung bean sprouts in the dark – light causes bitterness**
SOAK – Put 3 – 5 Tbsp seed in a wide mouth jar. Cover with mesh + secure with a rubber band. Add water, swirl + drain. Add 1 cup warm (30C) water & soak for 4 – 8 hrs. Then drain.
RINSE – 2 to 4 times a day, refill jar with cool water, swirl + drain. Invert jar and prop at an angle in a bowl or sink. Mung bean sprouts do best with lots of rinsing – 3 to 4 times a day if possible.
ENJOY – Ready to eat in 2 to 5 days. Refrigerate to store.
