Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I purchased these a year ago and (growing sprouts every week) it has taken me that long to use all of this Sprout House sampler. It says it is a small sampler but you get a lot of sprouts!!! As I was a newbie to sprout growing, I selected this sampler as I had no idea what I liked for sprouts and it was certified organic non-GMO. I bought a little sprout tray set up and just started. There are so many different combinations here. Almost too many!!!!! I love hot and spicy so I was hoping for find one zesty mix but really there was not. Maybe there is no such thing with sprouts? I have learned the following things that may be helpful to you: 1. Put about a tablespoon of the seeds in a little cup of warm water and let them stay a day or so to give them a head start. You will see the outer skins lifting off. 2. Put them in a container that you can easily water them twice daily and drain the water off. You don't want them to either drown or dry out. 3. Be careful not to put them in direct sun but do keep them at least at room temperature. You don't want them to cook in the sun or get too cold. 4. If you have a multiple containers, it is easy to try different varieties with this sampler. Just stagger them a day or two behind so you don't have multiple crops maturing at one time. 5. When they are mature you should harvest them by removing them from your growing container, rinsing them and storing in a Baggie in the refrigerator. They will last at least 3 to 4 days. 6. Generally, less is more with sprouts. In the beginning I found that I was soaking way too many seeds and growing too many spouts that matured all at once or over grew resulting in baby plants!!!!! Growing spouts is a wonderful year round project. I found that starting in Winter was great as it gave me fresh greens daily and something to look forward to in the cold months when little was growing outside. Also, kids are fascinated with sprouting projects and it also gives them something new and healthy to try. If this has been helpful in anyway please press the button and let me know.
