Food Storage Experiment: Will Old Food Storage Beans Germinate?
Correctly stored dry beans can remain edible for 25 to 30 years, but will they sprout? The ability to grow a new crop of dry beans from stored beans would substantially increase our self-reliance. We decided to conduct an experiment to see which of our old beans will sprout.
The germination rate of dry beans decreases significantly with age and is impacted by storage conditions. Our research study demonstrated that it is possible for 29-year-old beans to sprout, but the germination rate of newer beans is significantly higher.
In this video, we will share the results of our bean sprouting experiment. We took a random sampling of 23 different dry beans. Variables include variety, age, storage conditions, storage containers, and sprouting methods. The results proved to be quite interesting.
