The speed at which seeds begin growing with just plain tap water surprises everyone … once both the root and the shoot have sprouted then the seed may be eaten either raw or cooked. Here is a picture of the alfalfa seeds placed in one of the sprouting trays yesterday and another picture of some mung beans. The beans had been soaked overnight in a small jug of water and then placed in another sprouting tray just 12 hours ago. This is just 24 hours from soaking the first lot of (alfalfa) seeds.
