I had 3 potatoes that started to sprout so I left them in the wicker basket where I keep my potatoes, onions and garlic. These were red potatoes and they started developing leaves instead of the regular root sprouts that I am accustom to seeing in regular potatoes. So I let the new growth develop for a coupe of weeks. Finally I could wait no longer and put them into soil in a container from a shrub I purchased last year. I guess I get a brownie point for recycling that container. After 2 weeks my potato plant looks like this.

Growing Sprouts at Home

The cost of sprouting your own seeds cost substantially less than buying them fully grown from a store. Prices on fully grown alfalfa sprouts at a supermarket can cost anywhere from $1.69 to $2.99 for a plastic pint container. Alfalfa seeds are lightweight and an 8 oz bag of organic alfalfa seeds only costs $5. Non organic alfalfa seeds cost $5 for about 16 oz.
