Why a Sprout Bag?People often assume sprouts are best grown in jars. Indeed, in the hands of a diligent gardener, jars can successfully grow several varieties of sprouts but jars were never designed for sprouting. Their popularity has more to do with their wide availability and free cost than with their merits as a gardening tool. Any serious sprout grower will soon run into the many limitations of jars as sprouting devices. While there are other types of sprouters available with different features, the sprout bag is a perfect substitution for the jar, with several advantages. A little sprout history lesson follows.
The Dark Ages of Sprouting - THE JAR * Never designed for sprouting.
* Poor air circulation. Small opening limits air.
* Incomplete drainage. Stagnant air & water promotes mould growth.
* Open end requires cheesecloth, rubber bands, screens, or lids.
* Cheesecloth over mouth collects bacteria.
* Unsuitable for sprouting many vegetables, beans and gelatinous seeds.
* Prone to breakage. Difficult to transport. Accidents ruin crop.
* Take up valuable kitchen space.
* Time consuming 4 steps. Fill up, pour out, tilt at an angle, drain.
* Cumbersome to handle multiple jars. Difficult to get hands in and out.
* Takes up precious refrigerator space and shelf space. Fixed size.
The Modern Age - THE SPROUT BAG* Designed for sprouting. Saves time. Very convenient.
* All sprouts get air. Good circulation prevents mould.
* 100% drainage without tilting or waiting. Water never collects.
* Will sprout all varieties. All grains, all beans, even gelatinous seeds.

* Wide opening for easy handling. Holds equivalent to 3/4 gallon jar.
* Hemp & Flax fabric won't shrink or mould, like cotton, burlap or cheesecloth.
