Do you just put your seeds on top and set the pellets in a tray of water?

I hydrated the pellets to full saturation, poked a hole about 1/2 inch down, and put the seed there. These pellets work really well.

You need to soak the pellets first then plant the seeds according to their individual directions as far as depth goes.

Nothing fancy needed. I use a quart jar with a mesh screen lid. Soak your seeds over night, then drain and rinse the seeds and lay the jar on its side. Rinse each day for 3 or 4 days until the seeds have sprouted to your liking. Then eat-em up!

I have the same sprouting system although I only use three trays as its only me eating them. What I recommend is placing one Tbsp of seeds in a small bowl. So three Tbs in three separate bowls. Add water and soak overnight. Then in the morning rinse and place each bowl of seeds in a tray and stack. Then water twice a day. In about a week you will have a crop of sprouts to harvest. Sprout house has the best seeds. Good luck. All of my seeds always sprout and they are delicious

sorry, I don't have a sproutmaster tray at all, just use a jar. but I only use about a tablespoon of seeds.

PJ......I don't recall there being any instructions but since I have been sprouting for years, it wasn't an issue. I use a tablespoon of alfalfa or clover or any other tiny seed per tray. Soak overnight for roughly 8 hours first, then rinse morning and evening. I use 1/4 cup of lentils for lentil sprouts and about the same for garbanzo bean sprouts. Experiment!

It's really simple. put about a teaspoon of seeds in each tray, with the empty base at the bottom. Pour 2 cups of water in the top tray once in the morning and once at night. Start eating sprouts in 3-5 days. We find it's best to stagger the seeds, so put a teaspoon of seeds in the bottom tray, then two days later, add a tray with a teaspoon of seeds, etc. That way you always have fresh seeds. Once sprouted, we take them out, put them in a baggie and into the fridge where they last for about two weeks. Happy eating.

I actually put water to just below the cups. And that seems to do the trick. I agree the directions are a bit vague, but honestly I think as long as you have water in there your fine. Make sure it has started to boil before putting the tray in with the eggs. Took me a while to get the perfect egg, but I had never made them before so it was a bit of a learning curve, but now they come out perfect. Hope this helps.

No, but to germinate your seed, simply place a wet paper towel in a plate, sprinkle seeds on towel and cover with a food wrap. place in a dark area and keep an eye on them. Works great.

The seed packet should have directions regarding how deep to plant the seed. Some seeds need only a sprinkling of dirt on top, others are best buried 1/2 inch or deeper. Just depends on what you are planting. And then of course, water them generously (but don't drown them) and put them in a sunny window as soon as the seeds start sprouting.

I just dribble in enough so that the seed is coated after you mix it. I mix it with my hand in a rubber glove. That stuff is hot.

I've never soaked them. Instead, just before I'm ready to plant I get the beans wet then place them in a zip lock bag containing the inoculant, close the top. and shake the bag. The inoculant will then stick to the beans. Then just put the beans in the ground - enough inoculant will stick to each bean to provide good growth. If the inoculant is granular and doesn't stick easily, I grind it up.

Yes. Soak 1/8 -1/4 cup of the grain in quality water from 7am until 4pm. Rinse the grain well. You need a very special strainer (Bouillion) to do this because teff is a very tiny grain. Let the grain drain overnight (also known as sprouting) and the next morning eat it raw with some raw milk, raw honey, and a banana. My quality water is filtered water (no chlorine or flouride, etc.) to which I add some Ocean Solution (92 minerals).

Put lots of seed on the bottom portion of the birdfeeder. Just pour a few cups.

I placed mine in a plastic rectangle tray to make it easier to water them. They made for seed germination so they need to be kept moist and warm. They will stand-up alone, but will dry-out quickly if exposed to wind/breeze or warm temperatures constantly. It's best to put them in sometime and keep just a little water in the bottom to maintain moisture.

I am using the seeding trays with plastic lids. I have used a humidity cover in the past--it works fine--you just have to keep opening and shutting it. I like the individual trays better, I think it keeps the humidity better.

I soak the 1 pound seed for 2 days. Then blend 8 table spoons into 2 glassOf water. Then filter it in a fine strainer to remove the seed skins. Once filtered, I drink it or add banana to make it taste better

Yes. You can grind the seeds. I personally use a coffee grinder to grind the seeds, then put them in a drink.
