Hello everyone,

I am a raw vegan & would like to start sprouting. I tried to sprout chick peas & sunflower seeds w/ no success. :confused:

Could anyone please give me tips.
How long do I soak the seeds?
How many days before I get sprouts?

Thanks!

The above are links to websites that will help.
I think that alfalfa is the easiest thing to start with.

SunFlowers are So easy to Sprout. I Sprout the hulled ones, I soak them over night and rinse them 3 or 4 times a day and in app 3 days, they are wagging their little tails.

I think that they are easy as well but picking the black bits off at the end is such a hassle.

I don't have any black bits on the end. The ones I use are completely hulled, Naked.

I have never tried to sprout those ones. I just soak them and then re-dry them. I only sprout the black ones. I will try to sprout the other ones as it would be much easier.
