The seed sprouters as used by many in kitchens for producing edible alfalfa and mung sprouts are also very good for MG seeds...

Most of the most common MG species seeds will usually sprout rather easily...watching the results of your germination methods should yield some clues as to how to make some adjustments in the environment(s) that you are applying...

The MG's usually respond very well to bottom heat...

TTY,...
