A while back I bought a juicer and one of my intentions was to grow and juice my own wheat grass. Some how I just never got around to it it till now. Yesterday Nicole and went shopping at Sprouts and found in their bulk food section Hard Red Wheat Berries. So I bought 3 pounds to take a stab at growing our own wheat grass.
Wheat Berries
One of the things I am trying out is sprouting the wheat berries before planting them. As I was investigating how to grow wheat grass I came across some this piece of advice. We’ll see how it works out. Here are the wheat berries soaking:
Tomorrow morning I will drain the water and rinse the wheat berries. Then I will lay the sprouting jar on it’s side on an angle so any moisture can drain. I will also cover it with a towel so the berries sprout in the dark. I will need to rinse and drain the berries every 8-12 hours.
My plan is to let the wheat berries sprout for 2 days then “plant” them in shallow trays. I will post the daily progress of this little experiment.

this is one experiment i’m interested in following for sure…i hope it works out as much as you do.
Very interesting.
I likely would have just ground the berries into flour and baked some bread.
