Answers:
As long as the lentils (yellow, green, black, red, etc!.!.!.) and seeds (e!.g!. mustard, soy, beansprouts, watercress, etc!.!.!.) are dried and WHOLE - not split- you can sprout them!.
Make sure they are freshly bought (do not use them if they have already been ages in your pantry), dried, whole and wash them before use!.
Use filtered or boiled water to avoid contamination!.
You can buy hard plastic sprouting "boxes": one box has like 3 to 4 different levels to allow you to either make your seeds sprout at different times so that you will always have some sprouts available for consumption or you can use each compartment for a different seed or lentil!.
tip : check out Indian grocery stores, they have a lot of veggies' seeds you can use for sprouting!.

You need to make sure that what you have is intended for sprouting!. This means that they are not processed (ie split or something) or heated in any way that would keep them from sprouting, and they are not sprayed with chemicals and such!.
