ALFALFA Sprouting – Microgreens 2000+ Seeds
(NOTE: We DO NOT send Alfalfa Seeds to WA)
2000 Seeds = Approx 4-5grams of Alfalfa Seeds - Good to produce enough sprout for 2 persons for 2 days.
Alfalfa is the most popular sprout with a delicious nutty flavour. It is highly nutritious and rich in vitamins B1, B2, C, E, K, D and especially vitamin A; minerals such as phosphorus, calcium (five times more than milk), magnesium, iron, potassium, sulphur, zinc; and a good quantity of protein (35%) and fiber.
Alfalfa sprouts are used to support convalescence, and to prevent anemia and osteoporosis. Expose the sprouts to full sunlight on the 5th day to make them more nutritious. Try to avoid sprouting alfalfa during very hot weather; a germination temperature between 16 - 25°C works best. You can sow all year.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR SPROUTING ALFALFA SEEDS
1. Rinse 2 tablespoons (or desired amount) alfalfa seeds, removing any debris or floating matter.
2. Place alfalfa seeds in a quart jar or other sprouting container. Add ¼-½ cup cool water, cover with a sprouting screen or mesh sprouting lid and soak 8 hours or overnight.
3. Drain all water off the alfalfa seeds.
4. Invert the jar over a bowl at an angle so that the seeds will drain and air will be able to circulate.
5. After about 8 hours of draining, rinse and drain again.
6. Repeat rinsing and draining 2-3 times daily.
7. Tiny sprouts should begin to form in about 3 days. Once sprout tails appear, move sprout container to indirect light for growing green leaves. Avoid direct sunlight.
8. Continue rinsing and draining 2-3 times daily for another 2-3 days, or until sprouts have grown to around 8-10cm.
9. Once sprouts have reach desired length, drain well, remove any remaining hulls, and enjoy immediately or transfer to a covered container.
Sprouts will keep in the refrigerator for 3-5 days.
