This looks like a very good product. Can you sprout the seeds in this directly? Is it reusable?

The product is too course to sprout seeds. It is reusable, however, the root system will be too entangled with the product to be removed completely without a sigificant amount of time and effort.

It can be reused however I would not start seeds in it I would use growdan. Cubes to start my seeds or root riot blocks and then once they are rooted I would use the coco chips

I haven't tried seeds yet, I did my starts separately or bought them at the store but I think it will be reusable. I am only three weeks into my hydro garden but so far I like the product.

Since these hemp seeds are already shelled, I'm guessing that they will not sprout. I would look for raw, fresh unshelled hemp seeds if you are wanting to sprout. I would also google "profitable organic hemp seeds.

I don't know if you can grow chia seeds in the sprout bag, but I'd be very surprised if you could not as it is designed to handle all kinds of seeds. For a definitive answer, I suggest you contact the Rita, the Sprout Lady, at 1-800-777-6887. I have spoken with Rita numerous times, and she is most helpful. However, she is somewhat difficult to get hold of so you will need to be persistent.

Yes I suppose you could, but I only use the lid until the seeds sprout then they are in the open air.

I don't know about that because I've never entertained the idea of dehydrating sprouted grains. I just looked at my Clean-A-Screen tray and I don't think they would fall through because they have puffed up a bit. I don't do any sprouting myself but am going to give it a try after the holidays. Sorry I couldn't be of more help.

Thanks Sherri. The answer certainly is not easy to locate Another user posted this: http://www.sprouthouse.com/Sprout_Master_Triple_Sprouter_p/smtriple.htm . Do you see a number stamped into the plastic anywhere #478?

These are viable seeds that sprout in water. There should be no reason why they should not sprout in soil if watered and cared for properly.

Hi Kathryn:I just rinse the seeds off before the initial soaking. I believe they are organic, so they should be fine.But contact The Sprout House if you are worried.Best,Sarah

Yes, it's reusable. They sell refills, but it's cheaper just to buy your own potting soil and organic whole grain seeds from your grocery store or health market.

I expect you can, but haven't tried it myself. I use these in my soymilk maker. In the past, I have tried sprouting soybeans, and I just used soybeans from the bulk bins at Whole Foods, and it worked fine.

No! You turn the top & add seed, it's not complicated. That is for cleaning purposes.

I reuse mine all the time. It is a plastic material so it doesnt retain the moisture. Perfect for starting your seeds indoors.

Yes. Only sprout the amount that you want to at a time. I keep the rest in a cool, dry place in my pantry. BTW, I've had very good results--Yum!

I've used all types of seeds available to purchase. Get organic seeds. Follow the directions from the company you buy from.Sprouting is amazingly good food! Good in salads and good in sandwiches.

Yes, I have reused it many, many times now. Keep the plastic planting liners to actually plant in, though. The wooden planter is more for decoration and sturdiness. I keep grass growing all the time for my furry crew.

With these broccoli seeds, I would say "no." With sunflower spouts, the sprout emerges with the seed still exposed. I don't know if it can be used again. The Sprout House has a question and answer page and would cheerfully answer this for you. But if you are wondering about collecting seeds from sprouts, I believe the answer is "no."
