How to Sprout

1. Buy seeds intended for eating or sprouting.
2. Select small quantities of healthy, unbroken seeds.
3. Place seeds in a wide mouth quart jar. Cover the top with a piece of cheesecloth--fasten securely with a rubber band or canning lid band. Rinse the seeds (through the cheese cloth) several times. Then fill the jar with water. Let stand in a warm place overnight.Drain thoroughly, then rinse the seeds and drain again. (Use pure luke warm water for all rinsing.) Leave the jar upside down for a minute or two.
4. Place the jar on its side so the seeds from a layer.
5. Store in a warm dark place (68-75). Three or four times daily, rinse then drain the seeds and return the jar to the dark place.

It is important to keep the seeds moist but not wet. If sprouts seem dry, rinse more frequently. If they get too wet they will rot. Also keep the container in a well-ventilated, warm, dark area.
