Alfalfa, Organic, Heirloom, Non-Gmo B250 Count: 250+ 4-6 Days. Medicago sativa. High Germination. Organic. Non-GMO. An ancient field crop that has continued to shine in this modern era, organic alfalfa has since become arguably the most popular sprouting seed on the planet. Found in nearly any restaurant, deli, or grocery store, organic alfalfa sprouts are one of the most delicious and diverse varieties of seed sprouts available. Whether sprouting at home or for commercial use, non-GMO organic alfalfa sprout seeds are simple to grow, full of raw vitamins and nutrients, and ready to harvest in just 5-6 days. Organic Alfalfa Sprouting Seeds Alfalfa is one of the most reliable and effortless sprouting seeds and its worldwide success has helped introduce sprouting to a new generation. Technically a legume, alfalfa is best treated as a salad sprout because of its similar growth habits to broccoli, cabbage, and radish. Alfalfa seed is small, soft-shelled, and only requires a quick 4-6 hour soak. Like salad sprouts, keep alfalfa away from light until the final 12-24 hours before harvest. How to Sprout Organic Alfalfa Sprouting Seeds Alfalfa is one of the cleanest and most hygienic sprouting seeds, only requiring 2-3 daily rinses while keeping sprouts protected from light. Rinse thoroughly with cold water to keep sprouts free of organic decomposition and metabolic waste from sprouting. Although seeding rate may seem light, alfalfa sprouts will expand in about 6 days, quickly filling the tray or jar to capacity. In the final 12-24 hours of sprouting, allow alfalfa lighting to develop green chlorophyll. Sprouts may grow entirely in the dark for sweeter, white alfalfa sprouts. Sprouting Tray: Sprouting trays conveniently stack on the kitchen counter, providing a wide and shallow all-in-one place for seeds to soak, rinse, drain, germinate, and grow. Except for true mucilaginous seeds like chia, flax, and arugula, sprouting trays are the preferred method for nearly every type of seed. Sprouting Jar: Sprouting jars are the most popular and appealing method today for compact and portable 2-6 day sprouts. At home, work, or on the road, jars provide a decorative all-in-one place for seeds to soak, rinse, drain, germinate, and grow. Harvesting Organic Alfalfa Sprouts Nearly identical to its legume relative clover in flavor, appearance, and days to harvest, alfalfa is one of the sweetest and mildest sprouts. Like clover in both subtlety and sweetness, alfalfa also boasts a kick of chlorophyll that adds a welcomed touch of wheatgrass. Alfalfa is clean and fragrant, not requiring much rinsing before serving. Alfalfa sprouts are best harvested 2-3" long or at about 5-6 days with or without chlorophyll production. About Organic Alfalfa Sprout Seeds Medicago sativa, or more commonly known as alfalfa, is an ancient legume and one of the most diverse crops ever domesticated. First believed to have been cultivated in Iran thousands of years ago, alfalfa seeds have been traditionally sown exclusively as a foraging crop for livestock feed and fodder. Only recently though has non-GMO organic alfalfa been celebrated as a beneficial cover crop legume, grown among commercial farms and home gardens for its ability to replenish depleted soils with atmospheric nitrogen, then tilled back into the soil as an all-natural and organic "green manure" garden mulch. And even more recently has the alfalfa seed been elevated for worldwide human consumption. It may have taken millennia, but organic alfalfa seeds have worked their way out of the farm and field and into many international gourmet delicacies. http://springsofeden.myshopify.com/products/alfalfa-organic-heirloom-non-gmo-b250

Even more more fruitbugs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Spelt Wheat, he's an Ontario Cereal Leaf Beetle. An Alien-like fruitbug who has the incredible ability to make things come true for a few seconds- but as intangible illusions. He simply has to say something to have his ability activate- even from across the world. Unfortunately for everyone, he uses it to spread lies and hoaxes alike. Spelt usually makes unbelievable creatures and flying objects appear, since that's what entertains him the most. People tend to believe his illusions since they usually don't get close enough to touch the creatures. If you can get somehow past the hoaxes and give him some earnest love, Spelt can actually be bashful and clingy.
Caillette Olive, he's a Mediterranean Banded Centipede. A sunshine type of guy who owns a few orchards by mountains in the Medit level. He's always ready to share his fields' results, for very little money. Caillette is somewhat superstitious (hence the evil eye jewelry), but not unhealthily so, and doesn't force his beliefs on anyone. People tend to be surprised to meet a nice centipede, for once (Cherry, Pumpkin, Habanero and Saskatoon gives centipedes a bad reputation unfortunately).
Rhino Horn Banana, he's a Motyxia Sequoiae (Sierra Luminous Millipede). He's essentially a living neon sign, who can twist his body in almost any way he wants. He generally uses his flexibility to create fake signs in front of businesses and buildings he doesn't like- he for example takes the shape of a thumbs down in front of Grape Coco's casino/mafia headquarters. Unfortunately, Rhino Horn does this kind of thing with smaller, nicer shops- usually because he dislikes whoever owns them for petty reasons. You can touch Rhino Horn's body (if he lets you do so that is), but doing so for extended periods of time will give frostbite...
Candy Coralberry, he's a Red and White Bird-Eater Tarantula. Despite the 'bird-eater' name, Candy wouldn't hurt anyone or anything- he's a nurse, so healing you is his job! He's good at what he does and very kind and understanding- he's honestly appalled by rudeness as a whole. However he has a strange passion for a nurse: poison. He would NEVER give any to his patients or to himself, but Candy likes making his own poisons and pretending to be a bad nurse when he's all alone. Manchineel and his music are entirely to blame for this, Candy is a big fan of his.
Soursop, he's an Arthropleura- yes fruitbugs can be extinct arthropods too! In their world they're not extinct, the fruitbugs world is essentially a place where arthropods took over the world with little to no extinction. In any case Soursop is an adventurous guy, who lives in a jungle- he wants to explore it all! Not out of scientific interest, but rather because the jungle is his home, and he wants to know it like the back of his hand. Soursop is no stranger to dangerous situations, but he fearlessly goes through them- usually in a hotheaded way. To get close to him, you have to be as adventurous as he is...
Xinomavro Grape, he's a Mediterranean Hyalomma Marginatum Tick. He's the fruitbugs god of beauty, much to many, many fruitbugs' jealousy. He lives in the Medit level and holds festivals in his own honor. He can make people in a second state of mind with his power, which he uses to make people worship him. If you can get past his godly ego and mind bending power... He's still very full of himself and will consider you a 'mere mortal' but will have a relationship with you that he'll deem 'temporary'. In the lifetime sense. Also note that his body type might change...
It's Simka again! but with a new outfit for a new, swamp/'black lagoon' boyfriend... Who could it be? Wait don't click this link noooooo!!!!!!!
Velutina Banana, he's a Picasso Moth. Velutina is a rich man who makes his duty to uplift and financially support artists, regardless of 'skill' (there's no such thing to him). He very often holds expositions and auctions to make his artists known. Velutina also goes to small markets and the like to find new artists to support. If you're an artist it's very easy to get close to him, and he'll be very supportive, both financially and emotionally- Velutina wants all artists to believe in themselves. He loves all art... Except Kiwano's. Velutina hates him.
Autumn Royal Grape, he's a Micaria Jumping Spider, specifically this one. He's a star who got so famous that he got god-like powers. He still performs and creates music like a normal person, but his fans worship and pray to him like a true idol. Unfortunately, outside the stage, Autumn dislikes that! He loves attention and praise but even this is too much for him- and he can't escape his fame, paparazzis and fans always find him, and his godly powers won't go away. He needs a relationship where someone views him as a person first and foremost...
Zea Mays Everta Corn, he's a Flatid Planthopper. A famous actor who attends all showings of films he was on- even 5 seconds cameos. He was once a common popcorn seller, but a company noticed his acting talents on a play, and quickly made him a star. He kinda acts like everything is a act, it's hard to get close to him. But Zea Mays loves interacting with fellow actors, and he'd love to have a partner to act with- he's actually pretty lonely.
Snakehead, he's a Snakefly (unsurprisingly). A sly individual who tries to wiggle his way into important events just for entertainment. For example, if a king were to need an assistant for important decisions, Snakehead would try to be the one to do it. He just loves being mischievous and causing problems. Though one thing about him is that he develops crushes easily and might do bad things and get away with it to impress whoever he likes.
Bungulan Banana, he's a Green-banded Urania Moth. A man who loves radiation so much, he soaks it like one would with sunbeams- making him radioactive while he's at it. He's always looking to absorb more radiation, but in the fruitbugs world, radiation is found only in suspicious labs- so Bungulan breaks into them and steals things from there. He's actually Manchineel's best friend.
Rio Star Grapefruit, he's a Pink Ladybeetle Spider. A beach goer with slight fire power- slight as in he can make only small flames, unlike pepper fruitbugs who can create more or less important fires. He's always seen during sunsets on the beach, making him a special character to interact with- he disappears at any other hours. Rio Star is pretty nice but also has a temper. Also, don't tell him he has a bunny face- he is painfully aware of that.
Oregon Grape Holly, he's a Common Blue Damselfly. A guardian of a sunken city deep in the sea, he generally stays underwater or above water in the high seas, but occasionally you can see him on wild beaches. He has a legend going on around his existence- not about his sunken city surprisingly, but rather that he is connected to Carolina Reaper Pepper and Blackthorn Sloe. Oregon Grape Holly IS a mix of the two in some ways, so in-universe fruitbugs fans and players have a lot of theories about him. He is unfortunately aware of that and dislikes it greatly.
Chanion Kritis Orange, he's a Orange-tailed Marsh Dart (Damselfly). A powerful entity that used to be a god for an ancient culture, but when the latter was lost to time and lacked scripture, his title was gone as well and he faded to obscurity. In the fruitbugs game, Chanion Kritis is hidden in the code, much like Olive is (but the latter doesn't remember Chanion Kritis), so only hackers get to befriend him. He tends to act like he's above everyone and that you're not worth his time, but if you listen to him talk about his culture, you might get a chance to get close to him.

The germination of physiologically mature seeds on the mother plant is known as preharvest sprouting and is characteristic of some grain crops when they mature in wet weather (Figure 18.4A). (...) In maize, viviparous (vp) mutants have been selected in which the embryos germinate directly on the cob while still attached to the parent plant, referred to as precocious germination (Figure 18.4B).
