Mung bean sprout growing techniques: maintaining a reasonable temperature is very important!

We have all eaten mung bean sprouts, and they are fairly common in daily life. You can basically buy them in markets big and small, and they are a fresh and nutritious green vegetable. Because their growing cycle is relatively short, more and more people are growing mung bean sprouts. You are not limited by time pressure, and the preliminary materials you need to prepare are simple. So, are you familiar with mung bean sprout growing techniques? Let's take a look together.

Mung Bean Sprout Growing Techniques

1. Choosing the bean seed

For purchasing mung bean seeds, we generally go to a specialized market (that is, a pesticide shop), where the prices are cheaper. Then, before sprouting, we need to carry out seed selection. Seed selection is basically choosing plump seeds free of pests and diseases, which also helps with the later germination rate. After seed selection is completed, everyone should wash the mung bean seeds once, and pick out the mung beans floating on the water surface, as these are bad seeds. Finally, after washing them several times, they are ready.

2. Soaking the seeds

After seed selection, you should also check the appearance of the seeds. To avoid inferior seeds still being mixed in, keep the larger, plump seeds, while the smaller seeds should not be kept even if they have no flaws, so as not to affect the germination rate and also affect the other seeds. Soak the seeds you have selected at a ratio of 1:1 clear water to seeds. The water temperature should not be too high; around 20 degrees is fine. Soak them at night, and you can pour off the water the next morning.

3. Sowing

Sowing is a very key step for mung bean sprouts. When all the mung bean sprouts rely on moisture to maintain growth, we need to understand the importance of the environment. Cover the surface of the mung bean sprouts with a thin layer of soil, and definitely do not use too much. Then, because of the planting area, they are generally grown in containers, and you can choose a suitable container size. If it is too large or too small, it is not good for later management work.

4. Temperature regulation

Friends who have grown mung bean sprouts should all know that temperature control is the key point related to their survival. If you want the mung bean sprouts you grow to have good quality and high yield, temperature control must be precise. If the weather changes and gradually turns cold, we should promptly put the mung bean sprouts into a greenhouse environment, so that they can always feel secure. If the temperature is too high, also ventilate them promptly. In short, remember one point: create a relatively constant-temperature environment for the mung bean sprouts. In the early sprouting stage and the growth stage, too large a temperature difference is not good for their growth and also affects moisture.

That is where Tudiuwang has summarized the growing techniques for mung bean sprouts today. We hope the above tips can be helpful to your cultivation.
