Just to say Hi !

Hello everyone, didn't know this exsisted !

I am a grower of wheatgrass here in Manitoba Canada , I sell to all , juice bars , local markets and just regular walk-in customers ! Saw this Forum and desided to pop in , if anyody needed any help , been doing it for 8-9 years now and have some experience in this world as you say ! talk to you all soon!

Hey its great to know that there are other wheatgrass enthusiasts!
I wish I discovered wheatgrass 8-9 years ago, o well at least I found it now

Do you grow in soil or Hydro?

I do both here , depending on the customer that purchases it from me ,
but generally just use a reputable soilless mix and grow them in propagation flats for shipping to customers but those trays are placed into hydro tables !

All grown under a sellection of lights , from 400w , 600w and 1000w bulbs and both metal halide and high presure sodium !

Growth is fast ! and produce any where from 150 - 200 trays a month ! in a fully monitored indoor greenhouse !

Thats definitely quiet a setup you've got there! Metal halide and high pressure lights sound like the way to go if growing under lights when compared to fluorescents.

That is a lot of grass I feel overwhelmed when I have more than 3 trays for myself.

Have just found out about w/g and think its amazing - just grown my first batch under 200w warm spectrum eco lite and will continue the set up into the summer....................outside. growth seems ok and use liquid seaweed to soak the grain then more with each watering (v small amount used).



I have been experimenting with B+Q organic grow bag compost and mixing that with coco coir , or just the coir only, while mixing the seed into the soil or sometimes spreading over the surface but not yet found the average seed quantity to container size ratio thing etc


Anyone wanna give me some tips and advise!!!

cheers

Well shrew it sounds like your on the right track with the seaweed extra and warm 200 watt. I'm not sure what size container your growing in? i.e black trays?? That is what I use. For seed quanitity I usually do about 1 & 1/2 cup to 2 cups wheatgrass seed per tray. My trays are about 11 x 21inches.

Hope this helps a little!

I have beeen growing for the public now for 9 years....Orlando Florida.

It is good to hear from one of "us"!

Do you use the Food Grade Sea Kelp Meal from N.S. Canada?

of sunlight ...But it is not very intense.

Unfortunately you will not atain the "chi" level the DEFUSED sunlight provides the fresh wheatgrass.

A grower from Calvery ...a Mr. Fox called me years ago and discussed the way and what I use to grow with. Of course Florida is HOT and HUMID...so I get the opposite problems.

One way or the other FRESH is FRESH!

Hi, I am a new member of forum. Would a newcomer be warmly welcome here? Good day you guys!!!
