slimy buckwheat

After soaking the buckwheat overnight, when I rinsed it this morning it was super slimy. I want to sprout it but everytime I look at it or rinse it it’s still really slimy and weirding me out. I’ve never used buckwheat before so is this normal?

    slimy buckwheat is normal, just rinse it until the water is clear..i only soak my buckwheat for about 6hrs and then rinse it. it’s ready to make bread(which i use it for)in a day and half..

    I use a giant strainer and a big bowl to rinse and then sprout the buckwheat. I put a plate over the top to sprout.
