These seeds are sold for harvesting young growth using an appropriate sprouting or microgreen method.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThese seeds release a gel-like mucilage when moistened. Use the surface of a clean, shallow tray or an appropriate growing mat, following the packet; use this tray method rather than a conventional rinsing jar. Moisten the surface gently and keep it evenly moist without standing water. Spread the seed evenly so the developing shoots have space and air circulation.
