Question

To make sprouts at home we soak the seeds overnight and then drain the excess water why do we drain the excess water?

Draining the excess water is essential to make sprouts. So we drain off the excess water because at a particular time, the surroundings of the seeds becomes isotonic. We can say that the osmotic concentration of both inside and outside the seeds becomes equal. This results in swelling up of the seeds.
