Sprouting seeds

Hello everyone! i am interested in growing my own sprouts, but im not sure if you need to buy certain sprouting seeds? like for example can i use the sunflower seeds i buy in the bulk bin to sprout? also i mean sprouting like using the jar method wear you soak them, then rinse and drain for a few days...

any info would be helpful! thanks ;)

  • I sprout chickpeas, lentils and sunflower seeds from the bulk bin. To get a greater variety you might look into companies that sell sprouting seeds. I use Mumm's at ..www.sprouting.com. I'm sure you could google seed sprouting to find others.

    Sprouting is very simple. Again, googling the topic will get you tons of sites. You don't have to use any fancy equipment, just jars, elastic bands and paint strainers. Good luck and have fun sprouting!

    I have used seeds made especially for sprouting, aswell as the ones that you can get from the bulk bin. I dont really notice a different in taste, so I say go for it! :)

    I sprout hulled sunflower seeds from the bulk bin and also seeds specifically for sprouting. Both work fine.
