Monggo seeds planted with different types of soil for an investigatory project?

You may not find an observation chart, but I can tell you what the stages of the growing of the seed are. Firstly, mongo seeds are soaked in water for eight hours. This causes them to swell, and those that do not swell after these hours should be removed. The second stage, the seeds should be removed from the water, drained, and then placed into a whole new container so that they can germinate. These swollen seeds will eventually germinate, and tops of the new sprouts will begin to break through the seed wall. In stage three, the seeds will germinate properly, and the sprouts will grow to between 1 and 2 cm. This will occur either two or three days after stage one has occurred. These new sprouts can be eaten, or they can be left to continue to sprout. The fourth stage will happen between three and four days after the first stage. The length of the sprouts will increase to between 2 and 3 cm. In the penultimate stage, which is four or five days after soaking, the sprouts will begin reaching the length of about 5 cm. Within the world of commercial sprout production, this is the standard length for sale. Depending on the preference of the consumer, these can be left to continue to sprouts. In the final stage, the sprouts will actually be left to soak for another couple of days - and during these days, they will reach nearly 10 cm. After being soaked and reaching the right height, the seeds are harvested. They must be removed from the sprouting container and then washed. They need to be washed between three and four times so that the seed coat is removed. These sprouts can be eaten raw, or cooked.
