How To Grow Your Wheatgrass Properly

By Gisey James

Wheatgrass juice is catching the interest of health enthusiasts because of the numerous health advantages it boasts of. Also, it is possible for you to grow your own wheatgrass from your own home because it is very easy to take care of. We will list down the steps on growing wheatgrass properly so that you will be able to prevent the destruction of molds.

Most gardening stores don't usually sell high-quality wheatgrass and it might also be hard to buy one from them. They can be bought online or through specialist health stores that surely know high-quality wheatgrass. If you already have your seeds, you should start learning everything about growing wheatgrass.

To begin growing them, you must first soak your wheatgrass seeds in water for around eight hours. Before the soaking time ends, prepare a 10x20 inch seed tray with around 2 inches in depth. Then, you can proceed to add moist compost, peat moss, and we also recommend that you use an organic grower that will optimize your planting progress.

Now that your seeds have been soaked, you must start to drain, rinse, and repeat. Disperse the seeds in the soil, let them stay close but do not let them remain on top of each other. Don't let your peat moss be too wet because too much moisture cripples and could eventually stop your growing wheatgrass.

Shower your seeds equally to initiate the growth process between the peat moss and the seeds. Continuously check if your seed is too moist or too wet and make sure that the moisture is just right. These factors are essential in monitoring the proper growth of your grass.

Next, the tray should be covered with another tray or if possible, a bubble wrap or a moist used newspaper to keep it protected from outer harmful particles. Shedding your tray seals the moisture necessary to grow your grass well and prevents it from completely drying up or from growing unnecessary molds. Normally, the grass are already inches in height after three days.

Your continuously growing wheatgrass requires indirect sun exposure to boost its development with the right amount of nutrition it provides for the plant. If you use direct sunlight on your grass, it will dry up the moist soil bed quickly and hinder it from continuously growing therefore destroying the whole process. Sunlight boosts the growth of chlorophyll in the plant as it makes it greener and fills in for more than half of its benefits compared to its initial yellowish look when it first sprouted.

Once your wheatgrass grows at around 7 inches, you may harvest it because that is their optimum stage when it comes to their health contents. Use an ordinary scissors or kitchen knife in doing this to ensure the continuity of your growing wheatgrass and after this, cut and clean your harvest well before you start juicing so that you will have a fulfilling glass of wheatgrass juice in no time.
