Growing Wheatgrass:
At this time I have wheatgrass growing in a long trough on
the center of the table. Everyone who comes through notices and
comments on it.green beauty. One friend whose father was
a wheat farmer with acres and acres growing comment that it would do
better if I put it outside where it could get some
cold weather No sooner said than done. Now there are
pots of it growing all about the patio and coming up the
entrance to the back door. It is sort of like a harbinger of
spring for me and seems to give the same feeling to our guests.
Type wheatgrass in Google and all kinds of information about it will
come up along with places you can buy the juice. This seems to be
the best way because there is a mold that grows on it and this cannot
not be washed off and actually becomes a part of the grass. I
suppose this is the reason my friend warned me to put it outside.
From what I've read this kind of growing does better than
inside; I did start the seeds inside because it was fun for the
children to watch it grow, andI like I
mentioned, everyone enjoyed looking at it as a living growing thing.
What I won't do to take away winter
blues. Even a promise of spring is wonderful. One other thing,
wheatgrass is high in cloraphyll and very good for those who have
diabetes
