YEAAH BUDDYYY!! My first harvest! :mrgreen:

I woke up 7 am and went straight to my garden of eden to pick my sprouts. They taste really good and they're HUGE! 2 inch sprouts in both fenugreek and mung beans as you can see:

Also, more coming already: sunflower seeds, alfalfa and fava beans! I think chick peas and black-eyed peas are ready tomorrow.

How long can you keep sprouts?

Lean and Green · **Posted:** Fri Mar 06, 2009 7:27 pm

I've had them last as long as about 2 - 2 1/2 weeks in the fridge if they're beans. Slightly less for grains and grasses way less. The tails start to wither after a week or so but they're still good. Once they start smelling bad, time to ditch em.

For optimal taste and use i'd try to keep them for no longer than 7-10 days, personally but i don't throw away extra

Congrats on the sprouts. They look great.
