These mung beans are more like potential food than actual food when they are at this stage.
I sprout mung beans a couple of times a week and eat them almost the minute they are long enough. This photo shows you the amount of mung beans I start with before I wash them and start soaking them to get going on their growing. You will be shocked to see the result after a few days of action.
This tiny handful of mung beans came out of a 500 mg package that costs about 1 usd in my Bangkok Thailand Tesco. At the rate I am using them, these mung beans will be with me for many months, and maybe even a year. That’s okay because I love eating them after they sprout.
Thanks to steemit, I now know to take a picture and use that to find the "bad" beans. The brownish ones and broken ones are not going to sprout and it's best to remove them before sprouting the good ones. My bad eyes cannot see these too well in person. They are so much larger and easier to see here on this photo! Thank you steemit for helping me get a better plan.
Here is the next photo for this mung bean event. If you like to watch grass grow, you are in for a real treat!

I’m using a Canon ELPH160 point and shoot camera.
After losing “half my size” with natural methods, I find myself in all kinds of places I never dreamed of. Losing weight was the best thing that ever happened to me. Anyone can get over obesity and live their dreams if I can.
