To grow yellow pea sprouts in a jar, you will need the following materials:
Materials:
Yellow pea seeds
A glass jar with a wide mouth (such as a mason jar)
A mesh or cheesecloth
A rubber band
Water
Steps:
Rinse the yellow pea seeds in water and remove any debris or broken seeds.
Soak the seeds in water overnight (for about 8-12 hours).
Drain the water and rinse the seeds again.
Cover the mouth of the jar with a piece of mesh or cheesecloth and secure it with a rubber band.
Add the soaked seeds to the jar. The seeds should take up no more than one-fifth of the jar.
Add water to the jar, about halfway up the seeds.
Swirl the jar gently to make sure all the seeds are wet.
Pour out any excess water.
Place the jar in a spot out of direct sunlight but where it can still get some light and air circulation.
Rinse the seeds with fresh water twice a day, making sure to drain out all excess water each time.
After a few days, the seeds should start to sprout. Continue to rinse them twice a day until they reach the desired length (usually 3-5 days).
Once the sprouts have reached the desired length, remove them from the jar and rinse them thoroughly to remove any seed hulls or debris.
Store the sprouts in a container in the refrigerator, where they should last for several days. Enjoy!
