wheatgrass

so i’ve been wanting some wheatgrass centerpieces for a while now and have decided to grow my own. seems pretty inexpensive and easy. you can dress them up or keep it simple and use all kinds of containers.

1. choose a container that is at least 3-4″ deep.

2. fill it to about 1″ below the top of the rim with pre-moistened soil, compost, or potting mix.

3. sprinkle the top of your container with wheat
seed.

4. press the seed into the soil and then cover lightly
with more potting mix or soil and water lightly.

5. cover the container with clear plastic wrap,
and place it in a warm spot. remove the plastic
after seeds sprout.

6. move to sunny location.

7. grow for about a week and trim to desired
height.

perhaps my bella cat would even prefer nibbling on it rather than shredding our plants and karate chopping my orchids. you could even whip up some wheatgrass juice for a super nutritious treat.
