Sprouts Are AMAZING!

 

Think about the energy captured in a seed.  Set in motion by moisture the seed has all the genetic information and fuel it neds to turn itself into a plant.

What if you could harness that magic and use it for fuel for your own body.  Sprouted seeds may be the richest source of nutrients you can eat.

They're easy to grow and remind us of the primary life force that we can tap into.

Okay, where do I get my seeds? 

Your local health food store may have bulk seeds for sprouting. Or you can buy them on the internet. Here are a few sources for organic seeds and sprouting jars and trays.

Seeds in Action 

Watch as radish seeds sprout before your very eyes!

Time lapse radish seeds sprouting, top and roots growing

Time lapse sequence shot using Pentax K110D and Harbortronics DigiSnap 2100 set to take a frame each 14 minutes 24 seconds. The time lapse spans 9 days. Two 90 watt compact floresecent lights where used for both the camera shooting light and the grow lights. The lights were set on a timer for 18 hours on and 6 off (for the health of the plants). The jump in the video is the 6 hour gap in the darkness. Amazing how fast the radishes grew. Music by Roland White - Gaieté Acadienne [CD-Trying to Get to You]. Hope you enjoy.
