Growing Indoors:

  • Put 2 tablespoons(50ml) of seed in a jam jar.
  • Cover seeds with about 250ml of water. Cover the jar with a piece of muslin and secure with a rubber band.
  • Soak seeds overnight. The seeds will swell considerably.
  • Drain water through the muslin cloth, then rinse seeds in fresh water. Repeat the process, drain well and place jar on its side.
  • Rinse seeds at least twice daily through the muslin cloth, until sprouts are ready to eat. This is essential to avoid fermenting, mouldy seedlings.
