kale seeds


Today I started sprouting my little kale seeds. I should have started it a few weeks ago, but have been too busy to do so. Today I bought a pack of these peat things, watered them and planted the seeds. The peat discs are neat because they expand three times the size once they get wet. I put the lid on to the container and now I just have to wait for them to sprout.

  2. Well for me, I just sprout the seeds indoors so they are more likely to "take" once I plant them out of doors.

    However, I have heard of sprouting in other arenas, such as in raw foods. Supposedly it gives you more energy and aids in digestion. I have sprouted some raw cashews that I use in dips or desserts.
