The growing environment and local conditions of bean sprouts

The growing environment and conditions of bean sprouts

Bean sprouts grow at the roots of bean seeds. They prefer an environment that is warm in winter and cool in summer and are not resistant to low temperatures. They require sufficient water during their growth process and the air in the maintenance environment must be clean. They must also be produced under sterile conditions. They are widely distributed in China.

Bean sprout growing conditions

Bean sprouts prefer a warm environment, preferably 20-25 degrees Celsius. The maintenance temperature in winter should be 27-30 degrees Celsius. They like a humid growing environment and need to be watered frequently. In addition, the maintenance environment must have good ventilation so that the waste gas generated by the bean sprouts can be discharged in time. The environment must also be kept tidy and clean, and disinfected and sterilized in time.

Bean sprout growth temperature

Soybeans and mung beans used to produce bean sprouts are vegetable seeds that prefer a warm environment. The minimum temperature for bean seeds to germinate is 10 degrees, and the maximum temperature is 28-30 degrees, but not more than 32 degrees.

The growth process of bean sprouts

During the growth period of bean sprouts, a dark environment should be provided without visible light, especially when the bean sprouts are more than 1.5 cm long. Special attention should be paid to avoiding light. The doors and windows must be closed and the curtains drawn to dim the light in the bean sprout production room. This will improve the quality of the bean sprouts. When selling in the market, attention should also be paid to avoiding light, and the bean sprouts with light on the upper part should be sold as soon as possible to prevent the bean sprouts from turning green.

Bean sprout planting time and method

Bean sprouts can be planted at any time. You can wash the beans, remove the beans floating on the water, and then soak them in warm water for a day and a night. After they expand, rinse them with clean water and drain them. Put them in a clean basin, wrap them with a wet cloth, and rinse the sprouts with clean water at least 3 times a day. When the bean sprouts are about one inch long, they can be eaten.
