    A query

    Hi. I want to grow beans, I thought provisionally sugar beans, but I would like to sprout on a plate or in a jar first them first in order to show my 5 year old son the root and leaves as they appear. Any recommendations as to the setup Would be greatly appreciated.

    I used to sprout my seeds on damp kitchen paper in one of those foil containers that take aways use. Pop them in a poly bag and put them in the airing cupboard.

    That way I could keep them all separate with less likelyhood of damaging them when I potted them up.
    I am certain that the day my boat comes in, I'll be at the airport.

      What's a sugar bean?

      (I just googled ... it's a butter bean)

      Just soak it overnight in cold water, and then leave it on damp kitchen paper until it sprouts. You can then plant it into a clear drinks cup if you want to see the roots n all.
