How many days from the initial soak is this?Summer wheat I sprouted for the girls, i used dirt and those furit and veggie trays you get from the market. Oh I drilled holes in the bottoms to drain the water. I have more going. It smells so good I actually have a pretty planter on the kitchen table with some growing just for me. I did let grandson MOW the wheat because it was so long so the grils would not get impacted crops, They loved it after they got over being frightened of it.

I intended to use wheat only, but sometimes my bags of wheat from the mill include other grains or a few peas or beans unexpectedly. It is about 90% wheat, but there are a few oats and some type of pea mixed in. They are growing beautifully! Because they're doing so well, I added more oats and peas to the batch I put to soak today.
Ann - I used a very small screwdriver to burn the holes. I have a gas stove and used the flame from the burner to heat my screwdriver every few holes. It was very quick and the handle kept my hand from getting hot.
This is a pic from this morning (day 5 in the to-go container).
This is the production line...days 1-5. It just doesn't show the soaking container.
Just wanted to update you all on my fodder system--it's almost completely up and running with the rotation offering my 17 chickens 1/2 tray daily.
:Yes, I'd give fermenting a try with that batch.Well hit a snag with fodder this weekend. We were almost out of wheat and barley so I went to a mill we usually get our pellets from. Well I had my son go since I was working all day Wednesday. Got home and the bags had tiny holes in them I asked my son he said he mentioned it to the guy loading the suburban but he said they werent holes. Well got one bag out and bugs were EVERYWHERE in my suburban on these bags!!! I am so ticked. I really hope the feed store makes it right. We were out of town all weekend so today he is taking the wheat and our receipt to the store to see if they will refund it. We found a feed store closer that will sell us wheat in bulk by the 55 gallon drum. We just have to supply the 55 gallon drum. We have 4 of those so that is easy. It will be much cheaper to buy it that way. He will go get some today in the drum.
If we can't get the feed store to make right on the buggy wheat can I ferment it? I don't like the idea of giving them feed that has bugs in it. I know it won't sprout because the bugs have been eating the wheat you can tell when we opened one bag.
