What is a young shoot?
Is a young shoot the same as a sprout? I was reading that the young shoots of plants are edible and wanted to know what a shoot was before I eat the wrong part.  get 6 month of FREE RENT in Northern Pennsyvania http://www.dclassifieds.com/ad/3716647.html |

A more important point is that *not all* young shoots are edible. -- Stewart Robert Hinsley |

"A more important point is that *not all* young shoots are edible." Yes, good point. The plants I am considering, according to my source, all have edible young shoots. So, they should be sproutable(?) Anyone know if there is a master list somewhere that contains what is and what is not sproutable? I know toms are not. I cant find anything but the same common sproutables. Mung beans and alfalfa and so on. get 6 month of FREE RENT in Northern Pennsyvania http://www.dclassifieds.com/ad/3716647.html |
