involving sprouts. They are good for at home experiments on seed germination and how plants need water, light, and nutrients to succeed.
If you know what you are doing, or not doing, you can even grow moldy sprouts on purpose! Wouldn't that make an fascinating science experiment?

It is a great month to sprout because of its lower humidity and generally cooler temperatures. Need some help with getting your sprouting started or want to ramp up your harvest? Check out our
PDF's for guidance and answers to many sprouting questions.
