25 - Chia seeds
I have sprouted these myself! :)
These will sprout quickly if you put them on a damp paper towel, in a clear plastic container with a lid , like you get veggies and fruit in in the grocery store.
Then you can transplant them when they get
about 2 or 3 inches high. Once they mature,
you collect the seeds and use some to grow
more and some to sprout and eat the sprouts! :)
