Selecting beans

The beans commonly used to grow bean sprouts are soybeans, mung beans, and black beans. When selecting, choose new beans, as the germination rate of aged beans is lower. When selecting beans, choose those with uniform particle size. Beans with wrinkled or broken skin will reduce the germination rate.

Soaking the beans

Soak the selected beans in warm water overnight. If you find beans floating on the water, just throw them away. These beans are not mature or have gone bad and are difficult to germinate.

After soaking the beans in warm water, you can clearly see that the beans have expanded.

Plastic bottle processing

Cut off the upper part of the plastic, as shown in the picture, leaving only the lower half. This makes it easier to put the beans in and also facilitates ventilation.

Then use an awl to poke a few holes in the bottom of the plastic bottle to facilitate drainage. If moisture accumulates at the bottom of the bottle, it can easily cause the beans to rot.

Put beans into plastic bottles

Put the soaked beans into the bottle. Be careful not to put too many beans in the bottle, and leave some space for the beans to grow. Pour warm water in from the top so that all the beans can pass through the water flow.

Then cover the bottle with an opaque plastic bag or rag to prevent the beans from being exposed to light. (The beans will change color when exposed to light and will also taste bitter)

Maintenance

Place the plastic bottle in a cool place and water it at least once a day in the morning and evening. Make sure it is watered thoroughly. After a period of time, you will see long roots sprouting from one end of the bean.
