Lentils.


I like Lentils, I mainly buy the split red ones and add them to lots of things that I cook.  They are cheap and healthy and though Hubby is not as keen on them he eats stuff I make for me that has them in.  So I figure...If I eat them I should grow them.

So, I'm going to try and grow some Lentils.  Has anyone here done that?  Any tips please?

 I had mentioned wanting to sprout some to the daughter, she said she had some whole ones, I only had the split ones and of cause they wont sprout.  Silly me! 
Now I have enough to try sprouting and growing them. 
How cool would that be, to be able to grow your own...


My daughter gifted me them yesterday, along with lotsa other cool stuff so I have no excuse and will find a jar and start on the sprouting today.

  2. I figure if anything will sprout, it will grow. After all, germinating (sprouting) is the first step. (Aren't I making brilliant statements today?) lol at me.
