I have posted some pictures of our nursery(we grow one thing>>>FRESH wheatgrass) in the picture galery...seeing is beleaving. This year we had better sucess with the high heat and humidity here in Florida. Because we spaced our trays about 8 inches apart(I think it allowed better air circulation ands kept the roots cooler.Our ventalation CONSISTS OF five - TWO HORSE POWER turbo FANS..COST $10.OOO.OO>>Breezemaker Fans, Tampa Florida
Still in the hot summer weather anywherer...try not to overwater...adding more is easy....preventing the ROOTS from rotting is not. Soak LESS time in the warmer weather....12 hour soaking can make the berries mushy and invite mold problems....and IF your are using a TRUE sprouting seed therer will never be a neeed to cover the seeds....just keep the moist for the first TWO days....then check your trays for wettness...if you are growing in a full 2 inches of grow mix(I prefer soiless with no wetting agent(chemical) and NO commercial start up fertalizer...Fafard from Canada does our custom mix.) You may have to give your crop a little bit more water and just let it do it's thing. After the first two days is when most first time growers mess up and drench the bottom of the trays. We are small and I only grow 200 pounds of seeds a week right now.
Been selling out most weeks for the past two years....and am putting the SSL Certificate BACK on Drelichwheatgrass.com by December 1st. Adding a few more tables and will be able to take on a few more customers.
MAYBE 50 people in the entire country grow commercially. It is labor intensive.(We do not sit at a computor all day)..PLUS Mother Nature is really in charge of what you do....
Lost Two of my three greenhouses to hurricaine Charley......We regrouped and now we are starting our 9th year! There are so many different methods and systems that may be used to grow GOOD fresh wheatgrass. The amount of sunlight you have ...or don't have(Canada). They have aot of sunlight but do to the curve of the earth it is not very strong all year.
Grow lights...Forget it! The "CHI" or so called energy of the fresh wheatgrass just is not there. MOTHER NATURE>>>BABY!>>>That is where it's at.

EAT well....and Stay GREEN and BE Healthy! We grow fresh wheatgrass because we WANT to...NOT because we HAVE to!
