Product information
Their thin seed hulls are soft, very fragrant, super nutritious and excellent in salads.
How to grow sprouts:
Rinse the seeds with cool water and allow them to drain. Place the seeds in a bowl or a jar, fill with water and soak the seeds in a cool place at room temperature for up to eight hours. Once the seeds have been soaked, the germination process begins. Rinse and drain the seeds two to three times a day until they have sprouted, storing them in a cool cupboard or room. Start harvesting the sprouts when they reach anywhere between two to five centimetres which are usually after 4 days.
- Germination: 3 to 4 days
- Maturity: 5 to 10 days
- Ideal conditions: all year variety, full sun

A few top tips for sprouting is to make sure your equipment is always clean before you start. Only use seeds which are specifically sold as sprouting seeds. Find a light, airy spot for your sprouts - you'll need good airflow and consistent light (not in direct sunlight). And eat them while they are fresh.
Alfalfa sprouts add texture, moisture and crunch to a variety of raw or cooked meals. The shoots are thin, delicate, flexible and succulent with a crispy consistency.
