I get absolutely no sunlight in my apartment. Can I still grow this sprout?

Sure. They only need light if you are trying to grow them for a long time... Sprouts live on the carbs in their seed for long enough for us to eat them
1722748
yes of course sprouts will grow anywhere it will just take a couple days longer. for example in the sun it could take 1-3 days and without sun it will take 3-5 days.

You need to grow them in the dark until the last day. Then for 1 day you need to put it in the sun to turn them green & then put the in the fridge to keep them fresh.If you have absolutely no sun then cover them & put it in your car where it can get sun for the 1 day....careful not to spill the water....

Yes, it actually says not to put it in direct sunlight. I grow mine in a shaded corner of my counter.

Yes, we just put it on the counter, where it gets no sunlight. Good luck. These are very easy to grow. Hope you enjoy.

I'm in Northern Michigan where it is sub zero temps so I purchased it to be a year round indoor plant. I haven't transplanted it.

I put them in the dark for three days then put in light. don't need direct sunlight. Have had good luck growing them.

If your hood is open and not a tube you could do that BUT cooling the light allies you to keep light at a closer level to plants, more lumens equals less stretch and more growth, also add a carbon filter or it will reek

Depends on your zone. Check the plants zone and your zone in udsa website. But I would assume that you wouldn't have any issue in any climate if you left it in a pot and only placed it outside during the sumner. Remember no direct sun light or at the least very little.

It seems to be happy in an area that receives only a few hours of sunlight.I have placed the plant in a large pot,and placed it in a few different spots, it looks happiest in the mostly shaded location.I plan on getting it out of the pot and into a permanent home ( mostly shade ) next spring.I am curious about whether it will retain its red or green color when I bring it in for the winter.

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 recommend you pickup one of the great books out there on Herb gardens or Urban Self Sufficiency. Starter pots/Beds and and transfer to 4" pots once they are 2" high. There are a lot of other ways to do it, just remember to provide adequate watering and drainage plus indirect sunlight while sprouting the seeds. Pay attention to them daily to have a high suitability rate. Not all seed will germinate and not all plants will survive, THIS IS NORMAL. Older seeds tend to germinate less. Seeds poorly stored also germinate less. Harvest herbs before they flower, unless you are going to harvest the seeds. Have fun!

Yes! My plant is not near a window and it only receives light from a lamp. No issues at all and looks very healthy.

I would use it inside. The ambient soil temp needs to be in the 70;s to sprout and grow plants such as herbs. Assuming that your sunroom is heated. If not you might try it with a seedling mat.

Don't know about Cal. weather, however, I planted seeds 7 month ago, and very slow growth, still no sprouts. Used the Grow Box system here in south Fla. Out of 15 seeds planted, only 3 sprouted. Easier to buy frozen when need of sprouts comes along. Too bad, I was disappointed with results.

I planted in a place where it gets no sun. It has leaves but is still only about 12 inches high, so it's growing very slowly. I'm giving it one more summer before I move it.

I don't know, but it seems like you could. They are live seeds, so why not? I know you cant use seed packaged to plant for sprouts because they put 'treatments' on those seeds, like to keep it from molding, etc. I would think that you could get seeds to plant cheaper though.

Hello, I used this product for indoor where there is not much sunlight. I am sorry that I cannot provide you informative detail.

We have two beds located in an area with close to 100% sunlight throughout the day, and didn't have any issues with this. Grew a pretty wide range of plants this year and they all turned out fine.

Yes. I put one in front of a south facing window and it grew like crazy until I could plant outside.

Zero sunlight to sprout them. I tried two different ways one of which i sprout em in my closet in darkness and the second did absolutly nothing special just threw themon some dirt and wet them both ways work just as good.
