How to grow WheatGrass - Information about growing and juicing wheat grass

1. Rinse and pour about ½ pound of our natural wheatgrass into the empty jar. Soak the seeds, filling up the jar with 80% of water.
		2. Pour the sprouted wheatgrass seeds on the tray and spread them out evenly covering the soil. Ideally, one seed should touch another on all sides, but should not have any others piled on top of it. (Pick out the un-sprouted seeds)
3. Once the sprouting wheatgrass seeds are set out in the light, they will need to be watered every day or every other day depending on the weather, humidity, and the indoor temperature. When wheatgrass has grown up to 5 inches, it is ready for juicing! This normally takes one to two weeks, depending on the climate and growing conditions. In order to maintain freshness, the wheatgrass should be juiced and used immediately after cutting.
		4. To harvest wheatgrass, cut as close to the soil as possible; many nutrients are concentrated close to the soil mat. If you pull up some soil the plants, merely rinse the root ends with plain water before juicing or eating the wheatgrass.
5. Use our wheatgrass juicer to extract the wheatgrass juice

Although the cut wheatgrass can be stored for up to seven days in plastic bags in the refrigerator, once juiced it will begin to go bad in a half hour, and be completely spoiled in twelve hours. If wheatgrass juice is not used right away, it should be discarded.

DO NOT rinse the wheatgrass if you are going to store it in the refrigerator.

How to Juice the Wheatgrass?

We recommend having a slow-turning juicer made especially for juicing sprouts, greens, soft vegetables, and wheatgrass. Unlike high-speed vegetable juicers, which grind fresh foods and separate the juice form them, a wheatgrass juicer squeezes the juice out slowly. In this way it is able to extract 50 to 98 percent more juice from wheatgrass, greens, sprouts, or soft vegetables than any high-speed machine can. A wheatgrass juicer will be used in extracting fruit and vegetable juices and “green drinks” made from sprouts, greens, and wheatgrass fast. You can get a manual wheatgrass juicer here.

We recommend 2 oz. of wheatgrass juice daily, 20 minutes before the first meal (breakfast) in an empty stomach for best result.
