How to Grow Mung Bean Sprouts - Cheap Easy Method 

That's what you heard? Or confirmed?

Hey, thats great handy news. Very important, thank you for this information.

For how many days do we need to put that weight on beans? For like 1-2 days or till the end?

@@Vingzie i put weights on mine for about 3 days if it's warm and they are growing fast 4 days in winter if its cooler and they are slow. I've left the weight on for the whole time before too but I think they are good both ways and looked the same. I love sprouts and oof! Too expensive in grocery stores. For .25centd worth of beans I make a huge bowl full sprouts. I'm going to grab some soy beans to make soy sprout soon.

You probably dont care at all but does any of you know a trick to log back into an Instagram account?? I stupidly forgot the account password. I appreciate any assistance you can give me.

'their' own food.

+Cynthia Garza That's great! Thanks for sharing this.

if this was a new idea to you i have to wonder how you are remotely qualified to teach a class on eating down the food chain. i would add to this your ignorance of what is sustainable and earth conscious is shockingly poor. while i am not against sprouts and use em myself i am at least aware that micro greens and sprouts are irresponsible utilization of seeds unless you are replenishing the seeds by also growing the actually plant to maturity to replenish the resource. if we made microgreens and sprouts from seeds only there we would run out of the species in no time which is the complete opposite of sustainable. it never ceases to amaze me the number of ppl who don't realize this. i even see companies that only make micro grees for profit yet market themselves as a green company and sustainable. sprouting seeds and micro greens is counter to nature as it doesnt allow for reproduction so again it's not sustainable you dullard

braf zachland - Do you plant the actual plants you sprout and grow them to maturity to make new seeds to sprout, so that your own sprouting is a sustainable one? BTW, no need for namecalling... ☺️🌱💚✅

Oh good for you bcuz for me I cant find any tray for it, I ended up huge round one from chineese store but I cant fit it on anything for the bottom part to catch the water...😕

+Putri Candra Thank you!

I was just gonna say that.

Khang Starr Cool videos you have my friend, love your work!

Hello??? What do you mean by weighing????? I'm also trying to grow them...

@@chlxe2434 well what I currently do which works great is I have a flan stainless mold, and another identical which is ever so slightly smaller. They have straight up sides so the sprouts cannot escape and grow up the sides. I put the sprouted seeds in the bottom and insert the empty mold into it, and put a plastic bag with some water in it in the top as a weight. Because its a sure fit the sprouts grow into each other and push up against the upper surface (ceiling) and they grow large and long because they cannot escape into lots of room like in a jar. I lighten the water load as they mature and in a few days they are luscious and compact. I always make a very special effort to clean out the hulls at least once a day by floating them onto the surface and off and hand picking. Let me know if this makes sense. Originally it was a flower pot that had a sauce placed on top of the seeds but its hard to find saucers that are right size as the flower pot gets wider from bottom to top. Its tricky took me years to sort out a method which is basically a gerry rig type thing. Hope this helps.

@@ooohlaa13 thank you very much!!! I'll try it :DD

Thank you for watching!

Like dark dark, or a little dark? What if it's too dark? What if we only perceive darkness as dark but it's really light? Would I then go light or a little light?

Won't they get fungus?

Adam Herrera like under the dirt dark

farenheit41, If you have leaves and not dark enough, then the leaves will have photosynthsis and turn green. Once the leaves turn green, it will be a little bitter. Also, you better put heavy weight on top, the beans will grow fatter and less leaves.

Adam Herrera no light at all, green leaves are useless and harmful, because of growth hormones

No they dont if u take food care of it it wont smell bad my very first one started smelling bad and it turned all pink like bacteria from humid, but my second one is growing awsome, I check it everyday to see If it smells bad but it doesnt. Bcuz I covered it with thin fabric, and plastic bag on top.

Ok everyone calm down it's a the office reference

@@Jamie_kemp I recognized it right away! Good one! Lol

@@bluepill8077 Unlike the last two! Cheers

Wash it every 24 hours

You freeze sprouts? Not just refridgerate?

You're welcome! Thanks for watching.

Ian Beattie one day ive tried make mung beans in dark n light .. And the result is different. Which is mung beans grow in d dark place is more taller than the light one. Mung beans which i place in the light is very short. So i prefer to grow it in dark place

Sorry to answer so late, but no, the entire bean sprout is edible, no need to trim anything. Enjoy!

+Urban Ecologist Absolutely. These are very easy to grow, so no need to invest too much in buying equipment.

+Joseph “Tetrahedroseph” Perry Any colander will work.

+Robert Sparling yes, but that tray under there really makes it easier, right?

+Joseph “Tetrahedroseph” Perry I use a salad spinner and use the same methods in this video, it works great for me!

Yeah! That's what I was thinking to use instead. My salad spinner is usually busy keeping the cilantro fresh though.

Since we go through a lot of mung beans we get a 7 pound bag of organic mung beans at Costco for around $9.00 costco97.com/khazana-organic-mung-beans/ But supporting your local asian stores is a good idea too!
