On the other hand, if you can still get blotting paper, I have no idea.

I think it’s mung bean but don’t actually know why I think that!
You're right @Daikat they are mung beans
Thanks for confirming RRB.You're right @Daikat they are mung beans

Agree,coffee filters,paper towel and paper napkins also work well.Ive used those plastic clamshell trays with 'blotter',works well for the alfalfa and broccoli and radish types very well.Then I put clamshell in a tray to keep bottom moist with frequent water changes (2-3 times a day) after day 4,until then I only spray misted with water.And its cheap,only need to buy seeds.
On day 7... I removed the blotter,rinsed under running water to remove unsprouted seeds and back into clamshell without blotter,Day ten was amazing.Included is a lovely mung bean/alfalfa/avocado salad,also you can make an antipasto style with meat,but not included to not ruin it for the veggie folks here,but it makes a great salad!
Very impressive, learning a lot today
Would rolls of cotton wool be an alternative? I think I've seen it suggested for fun sprouting kits for children?@Mr_Pot - Thank you. I know where I can get blotting paper. I'll have to order slightly more than I might want, but it's available from office supplies on-line stationers (one of our chaps always had some on his desk, in one of those blotter things that go over a large area of desk. He took his leftovers with him when he retired but I still use the same stationer).
Kitchen towel is probably a good alternative to blotting paper, TP as @Antje77 suggested is designed to dissolve in water so not so good. I am deciding which sprouting jar to get to try that method, the avocado salad picture convinced me.Would rolls of cotton wool be an alternative?
