Growing Wheatgrass
What you need
1) A tray 1-1.5″ depth and at least 9″ long x 6″ wide
2) Cocopeat 500g
3) Whole wheat (preferably organic)
4) Water
5) Water spray pump (optional)
6) A pair of scissors
Steps
– Fill the tray with cocopeat to 2/3rd its depth.
– Spray water on it to soak but not soggy.
– Sprinkle wheat on the surface of cocopeat to cover entirely.
– Spray water again to wet the seeds.
– Spread cocopeat thinly on the seeds to just cover them and spry water lightly again.
– Keep it on a windowsill or on the fridge or on your desk or just anywhere convenient.
– Frequently spray water to ensure cocopeat doesn’t dry up
– The seeds will start germinating by about the third day.
– Bring the tray to just a couple of hours of morning Sun every day.
– Regularly spray close to the cocopeat surface to keep it moist but not soggy.
– Harvest using a pair of scissors no later than 7th or 8th day to enjoy it tender and fresh!
