Hi,
I am using Hard Red Winter wheat. I have stopped oversoaking my seeds and use more soil, actually soiless from a local garden center. I doubled the amount of soil bring it to the top of the tray, which makes it about 2" deep. I have three trays growing with these changes and have some of the most beautiful organic grass yet. The blades are twice the size they were in half the amount of soil. I got the soil that has a small amount of pine bark in it and the mold is much better. I spray the grass 3 or 4 times a day with the Sea Magic and it is a beautiful green and about 5 inches tall and still growing in front of my large windows in the living room. No grow lights and still get plenty of green color. How happy can you get with this kind of success.
