They've been sprouting a couple of days....all of a sudden, I'm afraid I let them go TOOOO long. How do I know?

Thanks

Wendi...Hi! What do they look like? do they smell funny? have you been rinsing daily [I do mine 2ce daily]...they should be fine..unless they smell bad, look bad, etc......

Taste! I've let mine go until they have little leaves on them. As long as you were rinsing and drying them properly and they taste good to you, they are fine.

OK...they're fine! I was just scared they were getting alittle old. Thanks!!

OK I just tried sprouting chickpeas and they were so gross.. Now I am nervous about sprouting lentils!! Will it be the same experience, I wonder?

lentils are the easiest to sprout! I love sprouted lentils in my salad.
