Wheat Seed Grows Scrawny Wheatgrass
by Ron
I have been growing wheatgrass but I ran out so I grabbed some wheat seeds at the store. The wheatgrass grown from these wheat seeds was thinner, with shorter shafts and a lighter green color. The wheatgrass seemed to yield more juice but did not smell as strong. Do you have any thoughts on this difference?  Ideally, you would like your wheatgrass to take on a nice rich toned darker wheatgrass color. The fresher the seed, the stronger its living force and germinating ability. If the wheat seed had been on the shelf for awhile, perhaps its germinating vitality and growing abilities had been compromised. I remember Ann Wigmore wanted to determine the best grass to grow that could be consumed. There are over 11,000 kinds of grasses on the planet. She planted probably hundreds of different kinds of grasses to select the best one for growing to obtain its nourishment. Grass certainly is nutritious and it is the only vegetation that can in a healthy way support an animal throughout its life. Ann Wigmore discovered one grain that grew very tall, thick, and had wonderful vitality. That was the wheat grain. She also found the fast growing wheatgrass to be one of the richest in vitamins, minerals, and amino acids. You can tell the health of a wheat seed by looking at it. Healhy soil, receiving ample rain, and experiencing favorable growing conditions produces a more beautiful looking full bodied seed versus a dried out and shriveled looking seed. I know there are different classifications of wheat seed quality. Food manufacturers have preferences for wheat seeds with lower or higher protein and starch content based upon the use of that wheat seed. So sounds like the wheat seed you purchased would not receive a high rating for its ability to grow into luscious wheatgrass. However, even though the wheat seed you found does not sound like "prime" wheatgrass growing seed, you can be sure you are consuming a highly nutritious beverage when juicing that wheatgrass. I am sure you will have fun experimenting with planting and growing different wheatgrass seeds to find one that grows beautifully for you and that looks like it is just bursting with vitality. Your body will appreciate even more consuming this wheatgrass that is just bursting with this extra life and energy. You will most likely be able to feel the additional positive difference when drinking the juice from wheatgrass in its prime state. If you are looking to order excellent wheatgrass seed on-line, this wheatgrass seed to the left is great. If you get real daring, go ahead and grow yourself some wonderfully nutritious barley grass too. Isn't this cereal grass growing business fun!
