i presume you and your ward are just planting for the fun of it. Try planting mongo bean seeds instead. Just sprinkle the seeds over good loam soil (reddish loose soil, not the clay type) and in a few days, your ward will be thrilled to see some beansprouts grow. Use the sprouts for salad or oriental veggies dish. By the way, place the pot facing the morning sun and just see to it the soil is moist all the time. Have fun.

Seeds are very hard to work with. It is much better to buy young plants. You will have a better chance of success. These plants might live though. Give them sunshine and don't over water.

I think they'll grow; leave them.
