Sowing Instructions :
Tray Method, cover the bottom of the Sprouting tray with one single layer of seed. Place the tray and seeds in a dish of water and soak for 4-8 hours. Alternatively, once you’ve measured your seeds in the tray, you can put the seeds in a bowl with water. Drain well, rinse twice a day under a tap of clean running water or spray bottle to mist well. Tip the tray to the side to drain well. Ready to eat in 8-10 days. Sprouts can be refrigerated for up to two weeks in a sealed container. Sprouts store best when they are fairly dry, do not store immediately after rinsing.
Tips for the crunchiest Sunflower shoots, Once the roots start to to grow through the bottom holes of the tray, use another larger tray underneath. Fill the larger tray with 1/4″ water. This will allow the roots to take up extra water and give the best tasting water-grown sunflower shoots!
Soil method, prepare enough moisture into your soil ahead of time. Soak the Sunflower seed 4-8 hours. Sprinkle the soaked seeds over the moistened soil in a tray,and press them gently into the loose soil. Cover loosely with a clean towel, unbleached paper towel, plastic or a thin layer of soil to maintain humidity. Stack an empty tray on top of the towel/plastic. Put weight in the empty tray. This will help root the seeds into the soil. Check daily to determine the moisture. After the seeds begin to germinate, you can remove the towel/plastic and continue spritzing the seed twice daily until it reaches desired height.
Growing tips, make sure this large seed is completely covered so it stays moist. To obtain great germination, keep your seeds at a steady temperature. After germination, avoid keeping the soil too moist.
