Those sprouts you have in water are living on the tissue of the seed and will soon starve to death if you don't get them into some soil. Lentils are generally planted in the winter and harvested in late summer so you are okay in that respect. They will tolerate a little more cold than their cousins, peas and beans. I am not sure exactly how much one plant produces but commercially the harvest is a little over two thousand pounds of dried lentils per acre. I expect you may figure roughly a half pound yield per plant.
