Then you can place the seeds in a well-lit environment to dry for a day, and then sow them on absorbent cotton cloth. After the mung beans show signs of germination, you can sow them.

After planting, you can water them thoroughly. If there is no rain, you need to continue watering until the transplanted seedlings sprout new roots or grow new green leaves.
