Question

To make sprouts at home, we soak the seeds overnight and then drain

the excess water. Why do we drain the excess water?

Answer 1

It is essential that sprouts be drained thoroughly after rinsing. Sitting in a puddle is the most common cause of crop failure.

Step-by-step explanation:

Draining is one of THE two most critical aspects of sprouting!

Given proper moisture a seed will germinate.

Rinsing is the process by which we add moisture to our sprouts. Draining is the process by which we regulate the amount of moisture our sprouts have available - until their next Rinse.

Answer 2

Answer: Draining the excess water is essential to make sprouts. So we drain off the excess water because at a particular time, the surroundings of the seeds becomes isotonic. We can say that the osmotic concentration of both inside and outside the seeds becomes equal. This results in swelling up of the seeds.
