🪴 How to start soaking

Rinse one tablespoon of the seed mix per two birds under running water until the water runs mostly clear. Soak the seeds in plenty of water for 8–12 hours, ensuring there’s at least an inch of water above the seeds to allow for expansion. It’s normal for the water to appear cloudy or dirty as nutrients are released during soaking.

After soaking, rinse the seeds again until the water is mostly clear. Drain thoroughly and serve immediately. Don’t worry if you’re delayed in draining the seeds; they can safely soak for up to 24 hours. Properly soaked seeds will have a fresh, earthy smell. Offer them right away and discard any uneaten portions after 2–3 hours. If leftovers are an issue, reduce the portion size to ensure it’s fully consumed.

Don’t throw away the soaking water—it’s packed with nutrients! Use it to water your garden and give your plants a natural boost.

When preparing soaked seeds, always check for signs of mould or contamination. For added safety, you can include a few drops of a bird-safe water additive, like organic apple cider vinegar, during the soaking process.

🛠️ Tools you will need

It can be soaked in any clean container, but you will require a fine strainer as some seeds are very small. Our Beginner Sprouting Jar works best. Soak out of direct sunlight in a cool dark place.
