Guest guest Posted July 25, 2012 Report Share Posted July 25, 2012 Are you talking about the Sproutman's hemp bags?? Sure, that was the first thing I used BEFORE mason jars. I had 3 of them. I did not do brassicas in them. I did mung beans and lentils. I just dunked them in a bowl in my kitchen sink, and then hung them up on a counter knob directly over the kitchen sink. Worked like a charm. But when you have as many trays as I have, I would need 17 bags and I read that brassicas don't do as well in these bags but mung beans, any kind of beans, and lentils do just fine. My lentils sprouted like crazy when I used these bags. Haven't done this in 4 years or so since then. I use the sprout garden and other trays. Melody > > Does anyone here use sprouting bags?

Guest guest Posted July 25, 2012 Report Share Posted July 25, 2012 Yes, THAT'S what I remember about the hemp bag. DRIP DRIP DRIP!! into my sink. I remember having 3 bags over the sink. Thought I was THE BOMB, with 3 hemp bags over the link. Little did I know that 4 years later I would have a sprout garden with shelves in my living room and a sign that says " Melody's Sprouthouse " hanging on the wall. A sprout cooler with 7 trays in my kitchen and mats and coir. How fun!! Melody > > > > Does anyone here use sprouting bags?
