Yeah, people mean LGMO these days when they say GMO (L meaning Lab), or so I think. It's just like most people use the word "chemicals" to mean "bad chemicals." Water is a chemical, after all (and it can kill you). I like the term GE for "genetically engineered." You see it on various...

We've had this discussion before, but depending on how we define GMO, you and I are GMO's! In the past our ancestors influenced directly and indirectly the people their children would marry, which modifies genes. A lot of people say that GMO means only modern, lab-modified organisms, but...

I've grown 2 small patches of wheat from wheat berries that I buy in bulk from a store called Sprouts - not organic. And we've harvested it and made bread out of it, so yes, it should sprout. We've also used these wheat seeds to grow (in pots) "wheat grass" to grind up for juice (that tastes...

Watch using nasty water to make sprouts (I recall a sprout-caused case of human deaths in Europe a few years ago). An earlier post said it all when they mentioned a medium. When we plant seeds in soil or a medium, they're not saturated with water, and there's a chance for all sorts of bacteria...

I'm curious. Wheat is about 12 cents a pound this year (wheat is about $7 a bushel, and a bushel of wheat has about 60 lbs). The cheapest I can find wheat berries in my area is 99 cents a pound, about 8 times what the farmer gets. I do realize that 99 cent a pound wheat has been graded...

Thanks JenEric! I'm on the other side of the country, but I hope I can still find good prices like that - I will check link to see if they ship. Someone said Wal-Mart.com has hard white wheat berries at $14 per 26 lb - they do' plus shipping unless you get several.. Thanks for posting this...

JenEric, hey - you are rly paying that little for wheat?? You are in Maine? Are the grains locally grown? May I ask if it's food grade or feed grade? Even if feed, man, that's LOW! If food grade, wow. Now, that said , wheat is usually what, $5 a bushel - unless a drought year - and a bushel...

Dang, internet sites want stupid money for wheat berries - way more than my local Sprouts store - or Whole Paycheck.

Dang that is cheap tor grain. In LA I can only find red wheat seeds in some grocery stores - dollar a Pound! :hit I need to find a farmer coop or market - but we might not have one. I have grown small batches of wheat grass in pots with soil . Very easy - no molding - very forgiving. If you...

In so cal this is our green season - no freeze - rain. But I have grown wheat grass in pots - in dirt. Maybe I'm missing something, but you seem to be growing on trays with no dirt (low weight?). What about putting your soaked seeds in dirt? In big garden flats with some dirt in them? Dirt...
