1. Sweet! This is my 2nd year at attempting plants, and I found some spouts this morning.

Mine is not nearly as extensive as yours: one rapini broccoli sprout, and one green bean sprout. I have one more of each that haven't sprouted yet, plus one lima bean and two mystery bean plants.

It's been fun! I first tried this last year, since I no longer had a cat and wanted something to care for without too much responsibility And it is SOOOOO rewarding to actually eat something you've grown!!

I admit, I was a little scared of the green bean sprouts last year, when they first came out arcane1 Mar 2014 #4

Have fun. There is nothing more rewarding than something you planted grow. In_The_Wind Mar 2014 #6
