Sprouting Seeds

[Zepher]

I recently pulled out an old sprouting jar from the closet. In the past, I'd
buy "sprouting" seeds from a health food store. Anybody know if dry beans or
something else that can be bought cheaply from the grocery can be used
successfully?

I don't know what the difference might be, but I've sprouted everyday
stuff like soybeans and sunflower seeds. What I recall was that the
"sprouting" seeds seemed to be pretty small seeds, which might mean
they weren't specifically for sprouting but that nobody would have
a use for them other than for sprouting. You obviously do lots
with soybeans, but what would you use radish seeds for other than
growing things?

Asian food stores may have mung beans which are good for sprouting.

> Radish sprouts are zingy and peppery. Try this place for sprouting seeds
of many kinds and mixes. You can also find the same brand in most natural
food stores (not health food stores).
