Price....

Let's compare.....A 2.8 cu ft. bag of the mix I use costs about $11.00and buy 200 at a time! The Food Grade Sea Kelp Meal, just bought 10 more bags at $50.00 each bag. The deep well water I use was $5,000.ooo to purify and filter the water. And the Certified HARD RED SPRING wheat berries are now up to about $27.00 a bag and I buy 50 at a time.....Oh yeah lets throw in the ventalation 5...two hp. TURBO fans Cost $2,000.oo each.(baldor motors) fans are by Breezemaker.(they do TWISTER at Universal Studios. Not counting the grow trays....And Paying the help...ohyea(again) I just replaced my precoolers again(did that three years ago) 3...brand new units...over $5,000.oo. NEXT consider the growing is LABOR intensive...Also the fact that VERY FEW people are willing to grow for the public....running the fans is like running a 12 ton aircinditioner....but I am sure you know wheatgrass growers get their electric for FREE> Even the Organic growers ass. recommends that people switch to a "soiless medium" But then I would guess...saving money ...YOU do not worry about salminela or ecoli. We are proud of the way we produce our wheatgras here in florida. And do not SKIMP on anything we use in our process of the wheatgrass....The four "secret ingridients" are on EVERYONE of our label...plus the CUT DATE>>>>>When we start doing this to make the :big bucks" I will send you the POST>Soon we will be starting our 8th YEAR! ps. If you can find BETTER ingridients to grow wheatgrass with...Please let me know. By the way...I donot want to be your minister...I PAY taxes...and I donot want to massage you...I have a Panasonic massage chair...OR be your doctor with a 35 hour degree for $480.oo from some "college in South Carolina.....I AM JUST A SIMPLE FARMER OF THE BEST FOOD YOU CAN PUT INTO YOUR BODY>>>>>make sense....? Stay Green and BE Healthy!
