Guest guest Posted May 1, 2011 Report Share Posted May 1, 2011 Hi there fellow sprouter. Welcome to our sprouting universe. I only sprout brassica (alfalfa, broccoli, radish) and I sprout feugreek and mung beans. I have had major health issues over the years. I'm diabetic and I love the way sprouting has impacted my health (in a most positive way). Do you do videos? I make them and I have my own youtube channel. After my signature you'll see a link to my sprout channel on youtube. Again, welcome!!!

What a great way to fill enhance meals from my organic garden (also new to growing veggies and winter gardening) and fill in between the old and new. I have chronic health issues and I can feel a big difference in my energy and pain levels - yay!!!!!! I'm happy with the sprouts I've produced so far with the exception of red cabbage. I get maybe 25% of what I get from the same amounts of broccoli or kale seeds. A lot of it is the low germination rate but it is also not growing anywhere as much as the other seeds either. I love the color and taste of them but I may not bother getting them again. I didn't get them from Sprout People as I didn't hear about this company/group until I read a book on sprouting - there's a couple in my area who are gardening coaches and they sell seeds for sprouting too. I'm not sure who supplies their seeds but they order them in bulk and then sell them. They're a great couple and I know they wouldn't knowingly sell an inferior seed - I'll let them know once I figure out it's not a 'user' issue. Thanks.

Guest guest Posted May 2, 2011 Report Share Posted May 2, 2011 Thanks for the welcome Melody. I've got tons of silly health problems due to auto-immune - so also pre diabetic. Your reply gives me hope - actually the doctor today said she can see a shift especially energy. She was a little taken aback when I said I was now sprouting in addition to organic gardening. I'll keep you in my prayers and let's get healthy together :-) > > =========================================== > > Hi, I'm new to sprouting but so far loving, loving, loving it.
