Tools/materials: mung beans, water, gauze, boxes, dark cloth, plates.
1, first wash the mung beans several times to get rid of dirt. Pour out the dirty water and soak the mung beans in drinking water at room temperature. Don't use warm water or cold tap water. Soak for about 6 hours, until the mung bean swells and spreads the mung bean skin.
2. Prepare a clean gauze and soak it in water, then prepare a box, then spread the prepared gauze on the bottom of the box, remember to spread it flat, then put the freshly soaked mung bean on the gauze, and finally cover the whole gauze on the mung bean, wrap it, and cover it with a dark cloth to prevent the beans from being excessively exposed to sunlight. Just put it in a cool place at home.
3. Find a plate with the same size and press it on it, so that the bean sprouts will grow particularly beautiful under pressure. After that, we water it once every morning and evening, about 3-5 days, and we will find that the plate pressed on it is jacked up, and the bean sprouts can be harvested in about a week.
Selection skills of mung bean sprouts

There are many mung bean sprouts in the market that have no or very short bud roots, and most of these mung bean sprouts are planted by soaking in chemical fertilizer, which has low nutritional value.
