    I have sprouted onion seeds before and they are good! They are better than onions.
    They do take a long time to sprout (at least this was the case with mine).

    I partially found out myself and with the help og Google. ;-)

    Onions do take a very long (up to 10 days) until they start sprouting and they have to be kept in the dark.
    Mustard produce lots of mucilage. THey are best combines with alfalfa.

    This leaves the nettle seeds an open question...
