Fodder

[chickenman111]

I bought a 50 lb. bag of feed grade wheat and a 50lb. bag of feed grade field peas and am using it for fodder. Is there any way to increase yield per lb. I'm only getting 4 lbs. per 1 lb. any ideas.

Thanks

what are the conditions you are growing in? I know that 4lbs. isn't the best yield, but it's still four times better then what you started with.

I'm growing it inside with temps during the day around 70-76 degrees during the day and a little below 70 at night. I rinse it twice a day. Also I have holes punched in the containers to drain excess water.

Thanks

Well that sounds like it ought to....I wonder how much more you'd yield if you were to let it go another day or two?

I'll probably try that. Thanks
