Abstract. Sprout graphs are finite directed graphs matured over a finite subset of the non-negative time line. A simple undirected connected graph on at least two vertices is required initially to construct an infant graph to mature from. The maxi-max arc-weight principle and the maxi-min arc-weight principle are introduced in this paper to determine the maximum and minimum maturity weight of a sprout graph. These principles demand more mathematical debates for logical closure. Since complete graphs, paths, stars and possibly cycles form part of the skeleton of all graphs, the introduction of results for these family of sprout graphs is expected to lay a good research foundation.
