Growing up to the splitting stage is HYPE......Yound and vibrant is the best deal....splitting grass is going INTO the seed cycle...YOUNGER is better..think about it.
I sell a grow kit with 8 trays...4 pounds of food grade sea kelp....12 pounds of Certifed Organic Hard Red Spring wheat Berries(seeds...+_ a 2.8 cu ft Bag of the Soiless custom grow Mix I use here ...for the past nine years....Cost $39.95......+ S&H- Drelichwheatgrass.com Send me your zip and I can let you know the UPS ground shipping charges...Use the Private mail feature.
The "kit" ships out of here at about 65 pounds!.....With the price of EVERYTHING today...It will be as much as the kit costs you to ship it more than likely.
Gas ..food ..medication...health care...and extended warrenties...WHERE are we anyhow??? Prices////! My zip here is 32820 check it out your self...I do not mark up the ups charges....But add in about $5.oo for the box and bubble wrap.

No idea what you mean about splitting stage. Yeah, that sounds like a good deal. However I live in MA where the sun doesn't come out much and it's usually Winter 9 months a year. Do I grow this in my basement or does it have to be in the sun? I know nothing about growing anything, especially wheatgrass. As an experiment, I bought some winter wheat seeds at a local nut and berry tree hugger shop
Not that I'm against tree huggers, I'm starting to become one myself. Anyhow, I bought this seed and put it in a jar with some spring water with a piece of sea kelp and 1/4 tsp mineral salt. I let it soak 8 hours, rinsed and repeated. I bought some organic compost dirt and a long window flower pot. I'm going to put the seed in there when it starts to sprout in the jar. If this is correct. Anyhow, your stuff sounds good as well. How much grass will that yeild before I have to reorder? What is appealing about the automatic sprouter is that it's pain free as far as the work you have to do. But if the manual method yeilds a better crop, and I can do it inside, I'd rather go that route.
Thanks, Kevin
