Sprouting Directions

Do Not Soak Seed

Dampen an unglazed clay pot bottom or tray lined with Baby Blanket, unbleached paper towel or coffee filter, or soil. Sprinkle lightly with dry seeds, leaving space between the seeds.  Spray lightly with water until damp but not too wet. Preserve moisture by loosely covering seeds with clear plastic.

Spray lightly with water twice a day. Keep damp, but not too wet. When established, sprouts can be rinsed under a slow flowing tap.

Enjoy! Ready in 4-8 days.

Sprouts store best when fairly dry- do not store immediately after rinsing.
