    Days to Sprout: 2-3 days

    Yield:   1/2 cup of dry seed yields 2.5 cups of sprouts
    Storage: Mumm's seeds should sprout well for a year after you purchase them if stored in a cool dry place. If you’d like to extend the germination life of your seeds store them in the fridge. If you store your seeds in the freezer they’ll last even longer!

    Sprouting Directions: 

     Soak: Put approximately 1/4 cup seed in a wide mouth jar with a sprouting lid. Add water, swirl, and drain. Refill jar with water and soak 6-12 hours. Drain well and invert jar at an angle on a sprouting rack, or in a bowl or drain rack.
    Rinse: Twice a day, refill jar with cold water, swirl, and drain well. 
    Enjoy! Ready to eat in 2-3 days. Refrigerate to store. (Sprouts store best when they are fairly dry.)
