Default mung beans

Having great success sprouting these on a sunny windowsill to eat as
beansprouts. Much nicer flavour than the shop-bought ones too, as well as
cheaper. Question - is it possible/feasible to grow these to adult plant &
harvest a crop in the UK?

Why not try it and report back? I guess it needs warmer climes to
give any useful crop, as with soya beans: maybe in a polytunnel?
