Sprouts Alive Alfalfa Botanical Name: Medicago sativa Fresh nutty flavour and very high in essential antioxidants. We hope you enjoy these sprout seeds, just another great example of vegetable seeds from Mr Fothergill's! How To Grow Growing in a Mr Fothergill’s Kitchen Seed Sprouter: Spread about 1 tablespoon of seeds in one or more of the four clear plastic trays. Stack the clear trays on top of the bottom tray. Pour enough water into the top tray to cover the outlet. This will commence the siphoning action and water will drain down through each of the trays and outlets. When finished draining, empty any excess water from the bottom tray. The water that stays in the clear trays is enough to provide the necessary humidity for successful seed germination. Water in this way at least 2-3 times each day. Growing in a jar: Place about 1 tablespoon of seeds in a large jar or similar container. Cover the opening of the container with a fine clean cloth and secure with a rubber band. Add enough warm water to completely cover seeds and soak overnight at room temperature. Next day, pour off excess water through the mesh cloth. Add fresh water to thoroughly rinse and drain. Rinse and drain sprouts at least twice a day.
