Sprouting lentils

Back in first grade we all did the sprouting experiment, right?
Well, I decided to sprout some lentils, that I could then plant on a pot.

Day 1: I put the lentils on a glass of water and let them soak for the night.

Day 2: I took them out of the water, placed some wet cotton on the bottom of a glass, and put the lentils on top of it.

Day 3: Some lentils started sprouting. I made sure the cotton was still wet (added a couple of drops, just in case).

Day 4: Took the glass outside to the sun. The sprouts are getting bigger and greener!
