Abstract
Disclosed is a system for seed sprouting. An example system may include a jar having a top opening and a bottom opening, a seal lid, and a perforated lid. The system may include a seed packet containing seeds. A quantity of the seeds is calibrated based on a volume of the jar. The system may include a stand to support the jar vertically when the seeds are placed into the jar and moistened with water after the seal lid is secured at the bottom opening. The perforated lid includes holes to allow draining of the water after the perforated lid is secured at the top opening and the jar is positioned with the top opening down. The system may include a further perforated lid to be secured at the bottom opening after the jar is positioned with the top opening down to allow air to flow through the jar.
