Sprouted grain has tons of nutrition. Any grain can sprout, everyone has there favorites. You can start small and easy with a bag of Western Family Lintels...
All you need is a jar and a cover with holes for drainage. I had a roll of screen for repairing my screen door that I never used (I ended up just replacing the door) tooling works, an old nylon stocking could work. I put an inch of grain in a jar, cover with a square of drainage material and a rubber band to secure it, and let it soak 8 hrs or overnight. Drain well- real well. Tip the jar on its side into a small dish. Rinse and drain twice a day for a few days till the growth is at least two to three times as long as the starting grain (or more). The picture below is wheat. Google and Utube had a ton of tutorials. The below link has lots of good info. You will have so much fun!
