Wheatgrass

This is a great micro green which is super nutritional and very easy to grow for making your own health shakes or just to chew on raw.

HOW TO START WHEATGRASS

STEP 1 - Soak in warm water for approx. 12 hours.

STEP 2 - Rinse seeds thoroughly through a sieve. Leave in sieve but rinse several times a day to keep them moist and rinsed.

STEP 3 - After doing this for around 3 days the seeds will have begun to germinate. Once each seed has a little white root coming out, transfer to a seedling tray that has been lined with a 2cm layer of soil and spread seeds evenly over the surface.

STEP 4- Cover the seeds either with more soil or place tray in a dark cupboard with no light. Keep moist at all times (use a spray bottle for ease)

STEP 5- After another two or so days the seedlings will be around 2cm tall and can now be transferred to a partly sunny position. Either on a bench indoors or outside. Continue to water every day and ensure they are always moist but not overly wet.

STEP 6 - After about a week the shoots will be bright green and ready to cut. Simply cut about 1-2cm from the base with scissors and use the shoots. Allow the cut shoots to regrow so you can cut again but best to restart after two cuttings.
