For garlic lovers! An easy 10-14 day sprout (slow start) with a wonderful fresh garlic flavor. Great mixed with other seeds.

  • Days to Sprout: 12-14 days
  • Soak Time: 4-6 hours
  • Yield: 1 tbsp of dry seed yields approx. 2-3 cups of sprouts
  • Storage: Must be stored in cold conditions or will lose it’s germ. Keep stored in either your fridge or freezer. We guarantee our seeds for one year from purchase date.

Sprouting Directions 

Soak: Put 1-2 Tbsp. seed in a wide mouth jar with a sprouting lid. Add water, swirl, and drain. Refill jar with water and soak 4-12 hours. Drain well and invert jar at an angle on a sprouting or draining rack, or in a bowl or drain rack.

Rinse: Twice a day, refill jar with cold water, swirl, and drain well.

Enjoy! Ready to eat in 10-13 days. The herb hulls are good tasting so you can harvest earlier if you like the flavor and texture of the hulls. Refrigerate to store. (Sprouts store best when they are fairly dry.)

 

Helpful tips:

  • Some sprouts tend to clump together as they grow. To separate, fill the jar with water, remove the screen and stir gently with a fork during the regular rinse. Remove hulls if desired. Drain well as usual.
  • The drier they are the better sprouts keep. Be sure to let sprouts grow another half day after the final sorting rinse before storing in the fridge. Optional: put folded paper towel on top of the sprouts in the jar. Put lid on and refrigerate turned upside down. This removes excess moisture.
  • If your home is very warm during the summer months, it may help to rinse the sprouts three times a day with cold water. Stir gently if clumping.

  1. Charles the sprouter

    This product is extremely easy to sprout. i use a big glass jar and the onlly thing you need is a little bit of patience, it will take longer than easy sprout like mung beans but the result is very tasty.

  2. Mike

    Si tu aime l’ail, c’est le produit qu’il te faut. La germination complète prend jusqu’à 10 jours, mais déjà après 4 jours les germes commencent a produire cette odeur d’ail si délicieux. Excellent produit pour passer un hiver tranquille, sans infection.

  3. ASprout

    These are some of the best tasting sprouts we bought. Great on/in everything

  4. Ken Stewart

    These usually take a little longer in the jar and are smaller than most sprouts. They make up for it in flavour and punch. Extremely tasty, I always want to have some on the go!

    I’ve only sprouted one batch but I really liked them. They didn’t germinate for 2 days so I was worried, but they were fine, just taking their time. I used baby blanket but I think I’ll just use do without it for the second batch.
    I thought they’d be hot & spicy but they’re actually quite mild tasting. Very nice on a sandwich and as a garnish for salmon.

    Garlic chive sprouts are so worth the 10 day waiting time! The only thing I had trouble with was the water method of removing the hulls… I was left with a bowl of water with what was essentially grass floating on it. I was nearly driven mad as I was picking each chive off the surface of the water water. I wanted a fish bowl skimming net or something 🙂 Delicious. I ate the rest with the hulls attached.

    These are some hardy little sprouts. As clearly outlined in the product description, these do take a bit longer to grow than some of the other varieties, but boy are they worth it. I’ve never had any luck growing a crop of full grown garlic chives, but once these sprouts get going they grow very well. They taste delicious, and the black seed hulls make them really pretty on sandwiches and in salads. The 75g bag is perfect for a do-it-yourselfer like me.

    Retired chef here. I am new to this and took to it like a duck to water. It takes soups, salads, sauces, on burgers and sandwiches with other sprouts to a new level. Lightly chop it just once or you bruise it. Wonderful colour, superb aroma-a feast for the eyes. I am just beginning to experiment with it as a garnish. I could go on. Seems to me to be a very hardy sprout. Keeps very well. One choice for a ‘pros’ is not enough.

  9. Neeci

    Garlic Chives… My sister started me on sprouts… she ordered Brocoli sprouts and a mix of some kind… I started to look on the internet and found you guys!… lucky day… the different kinds of sprouts arrived within a few days… great… all nicely packaged… I tried the jar method and the 4 tier tray… your seeds are terrific… the garlic chives sprout very fast and are so delicious… my favorite thing right now ( for breakfast) : peel one clove of garlic… rub the raw garlic on a piece of toast just out of the toaster… butter the toast… top with slices of tomato and then top with garlic chives sprouts or brocoli sprouts or kale sprouts … serve opened faced… add lots of sprouts, yum yum…

    Garlic chives are hard to find in stores. This is the ultimate go-to sprout when you’re whipping together a meal. Great in soups and salads. There’s a nice kick to them with little effort on your part. They really are the ultimate meal-enhancer, particularly when you don’t feel like peeling garlic and cutting an onion.

  11. attuhboy

    hi this is a fantastic sprout and a fantastic addition to salad sprouts, as a garnish or alone on almost anything, very prolific and tasty

  12. Merikanova

    My first attempt at growing the garlic chives smelled great but failed and I ended up throwing away the seeds on day 5, which was the day indicated on the bag as when I should be harvesting. I checked the website and learned that it’s a slow grower so I tried again but now on day 7 there isn’t much going on at all. Just a few seeds have little white tails (1mm long). My review is to say that perhaps these seeds are harder to grow than the few others I have tried already (broccoli, red clover, crunchy bean, mung).

  13. fibrefan

    Wonderful! tasty, good looking and well worth the price and wait while sprouting. A little goes a very long way so not really expensive after all.

  14. tiquinou

    Je ne m’attendais pas du tout à une qualité de goût si intense…L’apparence,l’odeur,le goût et la facilité de digestion,j’ai tout simplement adoré ce produit.

  15. Laurie Wyatt

    These sprouts are by far my favourite. They are so brilliantly striking in colour of lime green contrasted by the black seeds! The aroma is unmistakably garlic. Such a beautiful garnish to any fancy dish but particularly with seafood.

  16. Home Sprouter

    Sprouted Very Well
    Very nice garlic taste without being overwhelming
    Will be buying more as they are available

  17. BearMayor

    These are the best. We always have a batch on the go as they add so much to salads and sandwiches. You don’t need much to get that great pop of flavour. The black seeds are still a bit crunchy but you shouldn’t notice if it’s in addition to a nice bed of spicy lentil crunch.

  18. Chippie

    These are my favourite sprouts. You can use them on anything. The flavour is amazing and they’re healthy. Although they are slower to sprout, they are worth the wait.
