<Li> Contaminated water source </Li> <Li> Poor germination rate </Li> <P> Mung beans can be sprouted either in light or dark conditions . Those sprouted in the dark will be crisper in texture and whiter, as in the case of commercially available Chinese Bean Sprouts, but these have less nutritional content than those grown in partial sunlight . Growing in full sunlight is not recommended, because it can cause the beans to overheat or dry out . Subjecting the sprouts to pressure, for example, by placing a weight on top of them in their sprouting container, will result in larger, crunchier sprouts similar to those sold in grocery stores . </P> <P> A very effective way to sprout beans like lentils or azuki is in colanders . Soak the beans in water for about 8 hours then place in the colander . Wash twice a day . The sprouted beans can be eaten raw or cooked . </P>
