How it works
Water sprays out of the blue star at top just like a fountain. Don't worry, a lid (shown below) keeps your countertop dry. The automatic timer sprays the young plants for 1 minute every 15 minutes. Just add water and let the sprouter do all the work. Even a child can do it - in fact, they insist upon it! Become an instant organic gardener. Grow your garden anywhere from Perth to Melbourne and from Cairns to Hobart and every where in between. It's one week from seed to salad, every week of the year.
This sprouter grows approximately 450g of sprouts or wheatgrass.
Need More Greens?
Just add a second growing level to double your output and maintain a continuous supply of home-grown greens.
Expandable to Grow More
FreshLife Sprouter is expandable to allow you to grow two times the sprouts! Just purchase a second sprout barrel from us to double your sprouting area. No other tools are necessary; just add the second barrel on top, place the seeds and plug it in...it's that simple! The expansion kit includes an extra barrel, top and bottom seed trays, the water tube assembly, and three stainless steel clips for support.
Parts of the Fresh Life Automatic Sprouter and Wheatgrass Grower
From the top down:
- Cover: Promotes warmth and humidity for rapid growth.
- Sprinkler: Sprinkles water intermittently several times per hour. Extra one is included.
- 2 Sprouter Trays: Two identical black trays. The seeds sit on the lower tray and are covered by the upper tray. Both should be facing smooth side up.
- Water Tube: The blue tube is actually comprised of two sections that connect. It channels the water to the sprinkler head.
- Sprouter Barrel: This is the big barrel in which the sprouts grow. You can buy a second barrel to double your capacity. Grow up to 900g of sprouts.
- Water Barrel: This is the bottom section that holds the reservoir of water. You can add nutrients or other solutions to the water here, although it is optional.
- Water Pressure Tube: This is the tube with the disk on bottom. It sits inside the water barrel and controls the water pressure. Turning it counterclockwise (to the left) slightly increases water pressure.
- Motor Chamber: Holds a specially designed pump with a temperature sensor. Do not place this part in the sink or immerse it in water.
Helpful Growing Tips
- Soaking your seeds overnight before placing them in the sprouter will help the sprouts grow faster.
- We recommend using organically grown seeds for better results. For more information about seeds, please inquire with a customer department at Bondi Wheatgrass.
- Old seeds (more than a year old) may produce rotten sprouts or may delay their growth.
- If the water does not sprinkle within 30 seconds after the machine is turned on, reassemble the water pressure control tubes.
- We recommend minimizing the exposure of the sprouts to light by covering the lid with a dark colored cloth, especially for yellow sprouts,such as soybean sprout. In green sprouts, this will yield a more tender taste. Just remove the cloth cover a few hours before harvesting in order to activate the chlorophyll in the sprouts.
- If fatter sprouts are desired, add some weight on top of the upper seed tray (example: pebbles). Make sure that what you use for weight is clean.
- We recommend changing the water in the water barrel every 1-2 days. If using a solution of 35% Food Grade Hydrogen Peroxide (1 table spoon to a barrel of water), this may not be necessary. It is normal and natural to have some foam floating on the water in the water barrel during cultivation.
