I have been eating sprouts 2 out of 3 meals a day for over 2 years now . The sprouts and my walking ( 6.2 miles is my daily average for over a year) have changed so many health problems including diabetes . I also lost over 100 lbs .
Hi. I’m 74 too only I’ve been sprouting since the 90s. I hope and pray you love this. It certainly takes the worry out of veggies sprayed with poison. Well if you do salad seeds like broccoli and radish and alfalfa
I just a few months ago turned 77..have been making bean sprouts off and on for 2 years...I make a lot of stir fry for my grown grandchildren, to tell you the truth I like stir fry myself! We fort off the corona vires easy, and except for me which took a week we all recoverd well within a few days..I think it was due to healthy eating .
Hi Eva. I thought I had failed on my first two batches of Broccoli sprouts, when I noticed the small white hair like roots forming, which I thought was mold. Having followed several videos on sprouting you are the only person who has explained what this is. Thank you very much.
I'm so glad you found my video. So many people think it's mold, but they are actually thirsty little seeds asking for water. This is why it's important to rinse them twice a day. Also, broccoli tends to smell because it's broccoli, lol, so many people throw it out. But if you rinse broccoli twice a day and some people rinse 3 times a day, then it's all good..
Maybe you know that broccoli sprouts detoxes dioxin, the most potent toxin in the world spewed by the Ohio train derailment. In a year we'll be seeing babies born without limbs, miscarriages, major skin problems, cancer etc.
Several doctors say that broccoli sprouts are the number one best food for fighting an existing cancer and preventing cancer. Same goes for other cruciferous sprouts and you don’t have to eat a lot of them, just daily.
Any pulse or seed can be.. PROVIDING they are whole to begin wth,;…not split or cracked.. they won’t sprout…they’re An absolute powerhouse of nutrition ‼️
In India it's an everyday affair, mostly green gram,chick peas and horse gram, they are even sold on the streets or in super markets. But sadly west will never follow India I guess.
Love this 💗 Instead of draining the water 💧 into the sink, I put it on my plants. Doesn’t waste water and adds a kick of nutrients to the other plants 🪴
This is the BEST video I have found on sprouting! Thank you for the whole process of drying, refrigeration, freezing, etc! May God bless you with a beautiful day today!
I added sprouts to my veggie/fruit smoothie and it makes me sooooo full from the protein. I had no clue how to get and stay full from fruit and veggie smoothies until your videos on sprouts. Thanks so much for the information!
@lizb133 sprouts won't make you full but definitely add extra protein without adding powder. I love broccoli or red clover in my smoothie. Keep in mind that your smoothie will be spicy and taste like sprouts. I don't mind the flavor.
My favourites are broccoli sprouts. So good in wraps, salads, blended in dips. I make a cashew nut red pepper dip with a ton of sprouts, herbs and home made cayenne flakes.😋😋😋😋
Fenugreek's mucilaginous properties have unbelievably good health benefits... look it up. I only used the seeds for tea and never knew you could sprout them. I think the first 2 I would like to try would be broccoli and fenugreek. Thank you all. ✌️
20 year prepper. 5 year vegan. I soak lentils 24 hours before making soup. Last month I soaked too many and put half in the fridge in the sprouting jar. Days later while making another batch of soup I noticed they had just begun sprouting. That particular soup had the best flavor ever! I don’t use salt sugar or oils. Now I’m hooked. Instead of worrying about where to get clean produce in winter I’m going to learn to sprout. Thank you for sharing. 🙏
Two years later. I'm finally trying sprouts starting toady in the jars. I has sprouted black beans and lentil seed in dirt. Worked wonderful just a lot of dirt to work with. Made micro greens with the black beans actually. Thank you for this easy recipe. Here I go!
Wow! Its educational too because kids see the magic of seed germination..It will promote cognitive development in young children and also keep them healthy after consuming the sprouts
This is the simplest and easiest video to make sprouts. All stuff used in making the sprouts are also linked. Instructions are so clear. This is an example of how good videos are made. Loved it.
Great video, I grow microgreens and when I have 'extras' I will either 1) pickle them, with a cold brine OR 2) dehydrate them into a powder and use them on/ in almost everything. Both of those are great options for sprouts also. People get confused on the difference between the two, for one reason is we call alfalfa microgreens 'sprouts' when a sprout is just the tap root NOT the infant plant. What you see in the store is actually alfalfa microgreens, not sprouts.
I actually prefer growing them to be microgreens better than sprouts, but same principals still apply with regard to their nutrition. My favorites are cantaloupe, broccoli, mustard, and kohlrabi. But I look forward to trying more types of veggies. I am actually a health coach also and I will be sharing this with my plant-based diabetes group 💯
@@splashofgoodness they are delicious.. If you don't like the texture of the fruit, the greens add the essence and aroma but not the weirdness, if that makes sense 🤷♀️
Excellent info, thank you. Two suggestions consistent with your "goodness" philosophy: save the water for your plants, and save the empty seeds for compost - all growing things will love such nourishment.
I did sprouts for years and your video makes me want to get back to it. I used to pack sprout sandwiches for work: dense grain bread with butter and sprouts. So delicious! Great video. Thank you!
Hi Andrea, thank you for sharing! I'm glad you came across my video and that you will get back to eat these little wild things that are full of goodness.
Give it a try with lentils and cheese cloth. I experimented with growing microgreens for adding to our salads. Now that it is spring, I am having our neighbors pass on their dandelion plants they dig up to rid their yard of. 1 man's weed is another man's spring salad mix lunch. And now with microgreen and lentil sprouts. Such a variety of healthiness. Your video is very simple to follow and actually gained my husband's interest for how easy it is.
Love this! I cannot emphasize enough how healthy brocooli sprouts are. I started including them in my diet everyday and have never felt better! They are so versatile too! 💚
I'm going to try this over the winter the stores in my area barely have any veggies at all and I have to have veg to diet control my diabetes symptoms so I'm all ears on this
6:13 The seed coats do not need to be rinsed out at the end as shown. You are only using a grid that is too small when growing sprouts. Larger meshes cause the seed pods to be removed during rinsing. To begin with, simply insert a piece of nylon stocking so that the ungerminated seeds cannot get through. as soon as the sprouts have grown a little, the nylon stocking is no longer necessary.
I just learned about sprouting today and everyone else is channel talks about having big giant trays with all the special lighting system and what not. I just wanna eat healthy, so I love this little system that takes up no room at all. And no messy dirt!!
no messy dirt and no light required . And if you want , you can grow the sprout just about anywhere you go . I was even sprouting while camping with it snowing outside my tent . i still had fresh sprouts to eat .
Wonderful insights for success 🙌🏽 06:05 I imagine if you have other potted plants they would love those empty seeds for growing instead of letting them down the drain. Ty for pointing that out.
I’m so happy to have found your channel! I’m focusing on eating very healthy in 2024. While I have done a little sprouting occasionally in the past (broccoli & alfalfa), I haven’t made it a part of my routine. You have just inspired me! Looking forward to watching more of your videos. ~blessings!
I'm so glad to have you here. It's great to hear that you are making changes to your lifestyle, and I got you inspired to sprout more. Keep me posted how it goes. ❤️😊
I'm definitely going to try, my mom eats a lot of sprouts/ I'm obsessed with growing and making things from scratch so i am pretty excited to try this.
Thanks for sharing. I believe I should try this although in the winter usually I eat fermented cabbage which is very healthy and has a lot of C vitamin which is essential for our bodies.
❤ Great video! I am a psychologist and have recently been doing a bit of research on the benefits of sprouts and mircogreens. Organic broccoli sprouts, in particular, are full of sulphoraphane which is great for the gut microbiome which is responsible for 90-95% production of overall total neurotransmitter production in the body. Sprouts and microgreens are also so densely packed with micronutrients x20 all the way up to 40x more nutrient dense per gram than their fully grown, broccoli floret head (adult) counterparts, that support the beneficial bacteria in the gut which are then responsible for strengthening your immune system, eliminating free radicals & oxidative stress and have highly anti- cancerous properties. Sprouts and microgreens are the no.1 most densely packed natural source of many essential vitamins, minerals and proteins (/natural amino acids are always better than taking synthetic pills). Eating freshly sprouted microgreens daily is the best way for maintaining your general health. Many urban families lack micronutrients in their diets,due to modern day agricultural practices which cause soil depletion and eating G.M.O ( non- organic), pesticide laden, commonly consumed supermarket fruits and vegetables lack all these essential vitamins and minerals. The links in the description below and your explanation was absolutely great, so thankyou very much, I cant wait to start sprouting and putting all the theory into practice.This was a very helpful video, thanks again! 💯👍🙏💎
I also heard that we have to watch out with alfalfa since this is the only (or one of the few) seeds where sprouting enhances the lectins in the seeds. While normally (all other seeds) lectins will get less or disappear in the sprouting process. Lectins are poisonous to us, therefor it’s always better to sprout then to eat the seeds. But with alfalfa apparently it’s a different story. Just search in TH-cam or google for alfalfa and lectins.
I had been buying Broccoli Sprouts at the Santa Monica Co-OP for 20 years because in the veggie dept. there is a book of nutritional facts and Broccoli Sprouts have the highest antioxidant levels and nutritional value. They are delicious, my favorite. I will now be sprouting them myself.
Great video, I’m just getting started with sprouting and so glad I found this video. You already answered my biggest question so far which was about the white moldy looking stuff! Thank you so much!
Thank you for sharing such a fun and enlightening video! I've had some challenges with fermentations like kombucha and sauerkraut, mainly due to the complexity of sanitizing. Your instructions, however, have made it seem much more straightforward, giving me hope that I can successfully grow them myself and enjoy the health benefits. Your guidance is truly appreciated! 😊
I decided to not be too precious about sanitising and just place bottles in a large container and add boiling water, and let it sit for a while. Been doing sauerkraut successfully that way since early last year without problems. It gets really daunting when one tries to follow all the technicalities. Best thing about this video is simplicity. I had found sprouting too daunting before, but thanks to this simple process in the video I’m going to try it today.
Very good information, thank you so much! I bought Broccoli seeds but wondered why they were not sprouting. Poor things, they are drowning in water. I am going to buy the sprouting lids on your link. Many thanks! Very educational. By the way, you are so lovely and in such good physical shape, well done!
Aww, thank you very much! ❤️ there are a couple of things that can be wrong with seeds when they don't sprout. 1 they can be old even from the store and 2 sometimes we over soak them especially broccoli seeds. This company, Mumm's seeds, suggests only 2 to 4 hours, but other companies might suggest different timing. Check the seeds you are using on their website for instructions. It's best to by from the source so you know you are getting fresh seeds.
This is awesome video and very informative. I didn't realize I could sprout radish as well. I've been wanting to sprout for quite awhile and you have inspired me to start So thank you! I am ordering my sprout kits. Thank you so much!
This looks amazing!!!Thank you. I always thought it was complicated.Going to begin at the weekend.Cant wait!I love alfalfa sprouts but soo expensive in Ireland!❤
I came across sprouting information randomly from a daily Microsoft Edge task. This eventually led me to your video, and now I will give sprouting a go!
Thank you so much about the super clear video! I wasn't sure if it was safe to eat the black shells (unsprouted seeds??) that are left at the end but you clarified that for me - thanks! I am trying broccoli, kale, and fenugreek to start. So excited to give this a go, I'm reading that book you referred to as well because I like to read about all the health benefits. Thanks again
I'd recommend adding a few Dandelion, Sow Thistle, Nettle and Watercress seeds to your mix. The Medicinal Power of these plants is Phenomenal and you can gather all you need in your neighborhood, although the Watercress is found in small streams.
I'm so excited to start sprouting TODAY! Just got all of my supplies and I'm ready to go! I've been growing microgreens, too so adding sprouts is my next adventure for health!
Wow! So glad you popped up in my recommendations 🥰🥰🥰 thanks for this very lovely episode. I had it in the back of my mind to try sprouting my own seeds but was concerned I might do it the wrong way and get sick. I’ll be giving this a shot for sure! Xx
Very good presentation. Very informative. I like that you gave very important details and nutritional information before showing us how. I will try to do this. Thumbs up and a subscribe. Thank you.
Started sprouting broccoli like six months ago and I never stopped! Just stuff I grow in my kitchen in four days would cost me like $20-$30 in the store. Was just like two dollars worth of seeds
I love to try growing my own microgreens. My eldest son doesn't like to eat meat or chicken. Either seafood. As you mentioned, it is a good source of protein, and then i need to try this for a healthy salad and easy to prepare too. Can be eaten any time, even snacks time with burgers. Thank you very much.
3 days in the dark. 2 days in the light. (In case anyone was wondering) I do Broccoli, and a salad mix when sprouting. And for microgreens, I mostly do the salad mix, and Pea. Love the speckled pea microgreens! I do others, but these are the one's I do the most.
Not all seeds need darkness. Broccoli seeds definitely like dark, so I cover with a cloth for 3 days and 2 days expose to light but not direct sun. Other seeds are great without covering as long as they are away from light.
@@splashofgoodness My salad mix has all the one's you showed in this video, and I sprout them the same as I do the Broccoli one's. (which is 3 days in darkness) They turn out great. But whether in darkness or just away from the light doesn't matter, as my point was that it's 3 days, and 2 days.

My Mother used to put a brand new nylon stocking over the jar mouth because you can cut many pieces to fit many jars.
That's a great idea!
Can we use a used one after it has been sterilized?
Love this 💗
Instead of draining the water 💧 into the sink, I put it on my plants. Doesn’t waste water and adds a kick of nutrients to the other plants 🪴
Thank you 😊 yes, I do that as well. No waste. ❤️
wow a clever idea
I do the same and use this water to dilute red wiggler worm "juice". 10-20% juice to water. Pour it on my raised beds.
Me too and the plants love it 💖🪴
I soak fruit and vegetables peals for a few days and use that water. I’ll be adding this water to my plants also. My plants grow great.

New to sprouting, but starting it after encouragement from my son. I’m starting with broccoli! Video was very clear and easy to understand/follow.
Thank you very much!
My favorite sprout is radish! I've never tried to grow them. I usually pick them up at the farmers market or even sprouts store occasionally
Those are nice and spicy.
Thanks for sharing. I believe I should try this although in the winter usually I eat fermented cabbage which is very healthy and has a lot of C vitamin which is essential for our bodies.
Definitely, cabbage is amazing.

Love it!! Yes I’m going to give it a try! Just bought the stuff on Amazon and I’m going to start out trying the broccoli sprouts!
Yay enjoy sprouting
I have already started sprouting brocoli yesterday. I'm very exited about it
Wonderful! Have fun and enjoy
❤ Great video! I am a psychologist and have recently been doing a bit of research on the benefits of sprouts and mircogreens. Organic broccoli sprouts, in particular, are full of sulphoraphane which is great for the gut microbiome which is responsible for 90-95% production of overall total neurotransmitter production in the body. Sprouts and microgreens are also so densely packed with micronutrients x20 all the way up to 40x more nutrient dense per gram than their fully grown, broccoli floret head (adult) counterparts, that support the beneficial bacteria in the gut which are then responsible for strengthening your immune system, eliminating free radicals & oxidative stress and have highly anti- cancerous properties. Sprouts and microgreens are the no.1 most densely packed natural source of many essential vitamins, minerals and proteins (/natural amino acids are always better than taking synthetic pills). Eating freshly sprouted microgreens daily is the best way for maintaining your general health. Many urban families lack micronutrients in their diets,due to modern day agricultural practices which cause soil depletion and eating G.M.O ( non- organic), pesticide laden, commonly consumed supermarket fruits and vegetables lack all these essential vitamins and minerals. The links in the description below and your explanation was absolutely great, so thankyou very much, I cant wait to start sprouting and putting all the theory into practice.This was a very helpful video, thanks again! 💯👍🙏💎
Thank you for sharing they are the best! Great info. ❤️
I also heard that we have to watch out with alfalfa since this is the only (or one of the few) seeds where sprouting enhances the lectins in the seeds. While normally (all other seeds) lectins will get less or disappear in the sprouting process. Lectins are poisonous to us, therefor it’s always better to sprout then to eat the seeds. But with alfalfa apparently it’s a different story. Just search in TH-cam or google for alfalfa and lectins.
I had been buying Broccoli Sprouts at the Santa Monica Co-OP for 20 years because in the veggie dept. there is a book of nutritional facts and Broccoli Sprouts have the highest antioxidant levels and nutritional value. They are delicious, my favorite. I will now be sprouting them myself.
I need a high protein low carb diet as I had gastric bypass. I feel that sprouting will help. I have to give it a try. Thank you for this video.
Thank you 🙏. I wish you a quick recovery. Sprouts are amazing and high in protein.
I had it done 10 years ago but started putting weight back on and I am having to change my whole way of life again.
Miracle.. Thanks step by step explained 🌷
thank you very much!
Best explained video that I've seen on how to grow sprouts. Thanks for sharing.
Awww, thank you so much!!! 🙏 ❤️
Great video, I’m just getting started with sprouting and so glad I found this video. You already answered my biggest question so far which was about the white moldy looking stuff! Thank you so much!
I'm glad it was helpful! Enjoy sprouting.
We eat sprouts nearly daily and grow them in trays under grow lights. We like broccoli, radish and cabbage sprouts 😊
That's amazing! I'm so glad to hear! they are so good for our body. ❤️
How do you source so many seeds to grow sprouts for daily intake? Isn't expensive?
@@TheStoryTeller-r6o
I'm sourcing bulk seeds from Amazon.We like Nature Jim's brand.
Thank you for sharing such a fun and enlightening video! I've had some challenges with fermentations like kombucha and sauerkraut, mainly due to the complexity of sanitizing. Your instructions, however, have made it seem much more straightforward, giving me hope that I can successfully grow them myself and enjoy the health benefits. Your guidance is truly appreciated! 😊
Thank you very much! Glad you enjoy the video. Yes, clean jars is the key thats for sure.
I decided to not be too precious about sanitising and just place bottles in a large container and add boiling water, and let it sit for a while. Been doing sauerkraut successfully that way since early last year without problems. It gets really daunting when one tries to follow all the technicalities.
Best thing about this video is simplicity. I had found sprouting too daunting before, but thanks to this simple process in the video I’m going to try it today.
@On-Borrowed-Kindness thank you. I'm glad you found it helpful 😊
What trouble did you have with kombucha exactly?
She excellently explains in a very simple way 👍
Thank you very much!
Lovely. OFCOURSE I will now try to sprout green mung first. Thank you
Happy sprouting!😊
Oh wow Thanks for this! Never thought it would so easy. I’m excited to give it a try
You can do it! It's really easy ❤️😊
Just saw your fantastic video on sprouting and love how easy it was.
I tried the alfalfa and now I’m going to enjoy it. Thx for your good instructions
Thank you so much! Glad you enjoyed them 😘
I sprout since two years, but this is a new view! Thank you🥰
My pleasure 😊 glad you sprouting as well. So good for you!
Mmmmmmmllopppll
@@splashofgoodness oopppplllplllllp
Very good information, thank you so much! I bought Broccoli seeds but wondered why they were not sprouting. Poor things, they are drowning in water. I am going to buy the sprouting lids on your link. Many thanks! Very educational.
By the way, you are so lovely and in such good physical shape, well done!
Aww, thank you very much! ❤️ there are a couple of things that can be wrong with seeds when they don't sprout. 1 they can be old even from the store and 2 sometimes we over soak them especially broccoli seeds. This company, Mumm's seeds, suggests only 2 to 4 hours, but other companies might suggest different timing. Check the seeds you are using on their website for instructions. It's best to by from the source so you know you are getting fresh seeds.
We lack fresh greens here in Sierra Leone, so I am going to start sprouting! Thank you!
Sounds great! Enjoy 😉
I love making lentil sprouts. it's amazing how the flavor changes
They are amazing. I love the flavor so much better than cooked.
I love growing my own sprouts. I have ran out and need to resupply my sprouts. - Uncle J
That’s awesome, I’m glad to hear. What is your favourite?
I just got 2 pkg’s in for sprouting. I’m sprouting for me and experimenting on sprouting chicken food for my 10 hens ❤TFS👍
Sprouts are amazing. Lucky chickens.
Willaree
I sprout for my hens, they love it
Can you please tell how many eggs on average you get from those 10 hens in a month? Actually I am thinking about keeping hens for fresh eggs.
This is awesome video and very informative. I didn't realize I could sprout radish as well. I've been wanting to sprout for quite awhile and you have inspired me to start So thank you! I am ordering my sprout kits. Thank you so much!
Glad it was helpful! Thank you for watching and happy sprouting. Im glad you got inspired. ❤️😊
Thankyou for your demonstration
We used to do this years ago.
Must get my jars out again.
Thank you so much
God Bless
You are so welcome! Thank you for watching. Enjoy sprouting again, its so much fun.
I’m trying broccoli for the second time. Hopefully I listen to you and it will work. Thank you.
Yes, let me know how it goes or if you have any questions.
This looks amazing!!!Thank you. I always thought it was complicated.Going to begin at the weekend.Cant wait!I love alfalfa sprouts but soo expensive in Ireland!❤
You can definitely grow your own which is so much cheaper.
Thank you 😊
THE EMPTY SHELLS IF YOU EAT ARE AN EXCELLENT SOURCE OF FIBER. GREAT FOR YOUR SYSTEM.
Sure is, but most people don't like the texture.
Spin them in the salad spinner to get rid of the used seeds. It works beautifully.
I do that as well but it doesn't get rid of most of them so I like to scoop as much as possible before I spin them. ❤️
I came across sprouting information randomly from a daily Microsoft Edge task. This eventually led me to your video, and now I will give sprouting a go!
Great to hear! Happy sprouting it's so fun too
I’m new to sprouts and just ordered the a sprouting set! I’m looking forward to giving this a try! Thank you!
You can definitely grow them it's truly easy.
Same here, my kit came today. I’ll be starting tomorrow!
@@beckygarcia4416 that's awesome! Happy sprouting. ❤️
Thank you so much about the super clear video! I wasn't sure if it was safe to eat the black shells (unsprouted seeds??) that are left at the end but you clarified that for me - thanks! I am trying broccoli, kale, and fenugreek to start. So excited to give this a go, I'm reading that book you referred to as well because I like to read about all the health benefits. Thanks again
I'm so glad! Happy sprouting! 😊 the book is fantastic, highly recommended. ❤️
Thanks for this info, I'm totally going to grow my own now! 😃
Yes! I'm so happy! 😊 enjoy!
I tried it and I love it. Thank you
Wonderful! I'm so glad! 🤩
Thankyou kindly, I’m inspired to share the magic of growing with my darling grandchildren 💞✨👌🏽
They will love it seeing grow.
I'd recommend adding a few Dandelion, Sow Thistle, Nettle and Watercress seeds to your mix. The Medicinal Power of these plants is Phenomenal and you can gather all you need in your neighborhood, although the Watercress is found in small streams.
I have a hard time finding these seeds in the wild where I am unfortunately. But they are incredible for sure.
Thank you God for our health.
Thank you, Rebecca! 😊 ❤️🙏 sending you love ❤️ 🙌
Thanks for sharing with us! I've already have a book about this but seeing you I've got a lot more value! ❤
You're so welcome! I'm glad it was helpful. Happy sprouting!
I'm so excited to start sprouting TODAY! Just got all of my supplies and I'm ready to go! I've been growing microgreens, too so adding sprouts is my next adventure for health!
I'm so excited for you! Have fun! You will find this so much quicker them microgreens. I love them both, though.
@@splashofgoodness I have a feeling I’m going to love them both too!! But I love that these are faster!! Yay!
VERY USEFUL AND INFORMATIVE SUBJECT ❤ THANKS A MILLION ❤
You are most welcome 🙏 😊I'm glad you found it helpful.
Wow! So glad you popped up in my recommendations 🥰🥰🥰 thanks for this very lovely episode. I had it in the back of my mind to try sprouting my own seeds but was concerned I might do it the wrong way and get sick. I’ll be giving this a shot for sure! Xx
I'm so glad to hear you will give it a try! let me know how it goes. 😊
Very good presentation. Very informative. I like that you gave very important details and nutritional information before showing us how. I will try to do this. Thumbs up and a subscribe. Thank you.
Thank you do much! I appreciate you 🙏
Very encouraging , I am going to try it ❤
It's truly is easy. Let me know how it goes. ❤️
The red radish seeds look super healthy. Thank you for this option.
You are very welcome! ❤️😊
Started sprouting broccoli like six months ago and I never stopped! Just stuff I grow in my kitchen in four days would cost me like $20-$30 in the store. Was just like two dollars worth of seeds
Exactly, we can save so much by growing our own.
This was super interesting and very well done. Thank you for sharing!
Thank you so much! 💓
Looks delicious! Thanks!
You are welcome 😊
Amazing. I loved it, made so simple. Will definitely try
Thank you ❤😊 let me know how they come out.
I love to try growing my own microgreens. My eldest son doesn't like to eat meat or chicken. Either seafood. As you mentioned, it is a good source of protein, and then i need to try this for a healthy salad and easy to prepare too. Can be eaten any time, even snacks time with burgers. Thank you very much.
Yes, it can be eaten anytime, its healthy and delicious 😋
3 days in the dark. 2 days in the light. (In case anyone was wondering) I do Broccoli, and a salad mix when sprouting. And for microgreens, I mostly do the salad mix, and Pea. Love the speckled pea microgreens! I do others, but these are the one's I do the most.
Not all seeds need darkness. Broccoli seeds definitely like dark, so I cover with a cloth for 3 days and 2 days expose to light but not direct sun. Other seeds are great without covering as long as they are away from light.
@@splashofgoodness My salad mix has all the one's you showed in this video, and I sprout them the same as I do the Broccoli one's. (which is 3 days in darkness) They turn out great. But whether in darkness or just away from the light doesn't matter, as my point was that it's 3 days, and 2 days.
@cannotbeshaken7889 as I mentioned in the video that it can be covered by cloth. And yes, all can be in the dark but not necessary. ❤️
