  • Should use your voice for TV shows. Hehe "24 Hours Later" Love that soundbyte.

  • Thanks for the great video! Very helpful and I love it!!!

  • What a great instructional video! Very informative and just amazing to watch the seeds sprout and grow. Thank you so much for sharing this video with us. I am going to get some wheat seeds to grow now. I'll try some other seeds just for variety. Take care and best wishes to you.

  • am i the only one saying holy SHIT when he shows the day by day growth? lol

  • This is a GREAT 'how to' video!!! Thank you so much. My neighbor taught me how to do it but your video gives me a lot of pointers that I can improve with! Thank you!

  • You have a great voice.

  • And 24hours later....

  • sounds so annoying

  • great video and very helpful thanks

  • If i re-harvest wheatgrass over and over again, will i be able to juice the same amount and the same number of nutrients as with the 1st harvest?

  • @popoymotmot it's recommend getting 2 harvests. further tries will have slightly different shades and it probably won't be as tender, also i don't think you will get the same volume as the 1st time. so i'm guessing you will have exhausted the seeds and nutrient levels will have dropped drastically.

  • hmm i didnt know all that, so i just soaked the seeds in water 24hr, hn then dumped them into a pot with soil, coverded them with a lil bit of it , and in ~2days they sprouted n grew very nice ever since , should i grow em in soil?i think its a miracle grow or a soilles mix im using for some of my herbs and do you have 2 give it any nutrients?thx

  • For anyone looking for seeds and growing medium - I got 1 lb of wheat seeds (it said about 15,000 seeds) and 4oz of water crystals (supposed to make 2 gallons of crystals once hydrated) for about $20 for everything on eBay.

  • 24 hours later... I am now properly educated :) THANK YOU for making this video! I actually did enjoy it, and I like how you added in the dry humor there :)

  • hey.... how do you know if that water in your sink doenst have flouride in it?

  • hey.... how do you know that wheat isnt GMO?

  • barley excellent what about rye grass?

  • Thanks buddy

  • how can i order seeds?

  • where can i get a wheatgrass seed in the philippines?

  • @BlackLoveBlackPride It doesn't, wheat grass are just wheat seedlings... Wheat is a crop and has to be grown on open soil, it takes several months before the seeds start even showing on the plants, and quite a while for them to ripen. You're best off buying a small sack each time unless you have the land to grow the actual crop.

  • I have a question... Can one re-use the baby blanket after harvesting once or twice? I mean can you clean the roots off and just use it again?

  • Oh shutup fools, stop complaining over the video. Show some intelligence morons, use the slider to skip to the point if you're impatient! The guy just gave you a comprehensive guide to growing wheatgrass, what else d'you want...

  • @MrSpiky47 its utube, what did u expect ;)

  • This is a fantastic resource! Thank you so much and forget the naysayers, I'm notoriously bad at remembering to follow up on my sproutings in 24 hour increments and this worked for me.

  • @scribblemania Awesome! I just chalked it up to dry humor, and yes, as a memorable reminder :)

  • 24 hrs later and MARVEL....really......... jeeze this guy is worse than the clear eyes for dry eyes guy!!!!!!!... more like 24 hrs later and i killed myself. Not to inspirational there chief.

  • 24hrs later i have ramped my finger into my brain thru my eye socket!!! i cant believe i watched that whole thing!!!!

  • When does the grass start to make it's own seeds or whatever to grow more grass?

  • CAN I USE EPSOM SALT?

  • I had a wheatgrass growing experience and i got some mold both growing on soil and baby blanket.(very frustrating after waiting 2 weeks!!) Any tips anyone as far as how many times do you water it so moisture doesn't accumulate after the sprouts are on the mediums in order to avoid mold? I dont know if its the weather in Fl that might not be helping...

    thanks! all the help is appreciated!

  • @rafapknight add a few drops of hydrogen peroxide to your water and you won't get mold. I had better luck using growing crystals instead of the other items (and they can be washed and reused for years)

  • @rafapknight Try using a small fan blowing across grass .

  • Awesome video, i look forward to growing my own grass.

  • fuck that, im buying the powder i aint got time for all this bullshit.

  • clean up ur language this is not a therapy session

  • @dav00ss You`re a punk jerk!!!

  • if you grow it without soil won't it lose the minerals and other nutrients that it would normally get from the soil?

  • oh my God!!! I love the time warp dancing sprouts!!!

  • Is the baby blanket stuff, coco coir mat? Also, what is the average height of harvestable wheatgrass 6"-10" ? You have taught me how to properly do sprouts and now wheatgrass! Thanks for the great vids, keep'm coming!

  • were do you get the seed from?

  • I just grew a large amount of it and was wondering what the white stuff growing in the grass was and if it is something I should worry about.

  • @Seyahhsod

    There is no gluten in the actual grass, so don't avoid it. Embrace it

  • How do you get the wheatgrass to flower so you can save the seeds?

  • Fantastic! thank you nd you speak quite well ;)

  • When Health Food People tell you to AVOID Wheat/Gluten/Flour

    Do they mean Wheat Grass too?

  • Wheat can i get the baby blankets from, does anybody know?

  • Great video dude... 2 thumbs up!! :D

  • what kind of light do you need?

  • DID YOU KNOW YOU ARE ABSOLUTELY ANNOYING??? Why do you enunciate every damn word?

  • Great video! Can you tell me where I can get the tray and baby blankets for this?

  • 24 hours later...lol funny, im going to have to use that

  • Ye my sentiments exactly, as I'm new to growing this I just Wana say great video very helpful and so a big thank you guys

  • PERFECT instructional video, just the right amount of redundancy. Nothing left to wonder, everything explained. Good job sprout person.

  • Mr. Anderson...

  • Great video! very informative! thank you, now I see what I was doing wrong the first time I tried to grow this for my cats!

  • Man your voice gets annoying (24 hours later)

    Helpful video though

  • It's wheatgrass not only for kittens search it up it's amazing what it does to ur health. ! Thx for the video I'm deff gonna start ground my own paying about 15 $ a tray of wheatgrass right now. Again thx a lot Awsome video

  • Umm is this the kind of grass kitties eat?

  • How many cuttings can each tray produce?

    What do you fertilize with?

  • This grass will grow just fine without all your steps, just add some water daily, as needed...PERIOD. Nobody would want to grow it using all your silly steps. It's a dis service to helping people be healthy. GEEEEEESUS

  • LOVELY video, thankyou!!! :D

  • What does it say on your hand? Something "fridge"?

  • thrying to do this as a science project with the kiddos and yours is the only video they watched till the end without compaining that it is boring LOL. '24 hours later' and the timelapse at the end did it ;))) Thank you!!!!

    Wish somebody would answer all the questions in the comments,because I have tons also! Like.. can I juice the whole thing (roots and all), can I just blend it in my smoothie, can I regrow or discard these seeds? Thank you!

  • Comment removed

  • OMG, thoroughest videos ever for sprouting--thankyou!!!

    I've got to say, I think half the reason I enjoy these videos so much is because the narrator's voice sounds so much like Robert Downey Jr.'s voice in Sherlock Holmes. Haha. :)

  • Awesome video, 11/10

  • could you use this grass on your lawn and cut it like regular grass

  • @darionwilliam Yeah, that was my thought. Then you have wheat grass for juice any time.

  • i wish my dog would eat this

  • 24 hours later............{i know how to grow wheat grass now}

  • if you soak your wheat longer it becomes rejuvalak not sure on the spelling,but it's extremely good for you.

  • Awesome video would like to know where i could purchase the mats. Have checked the area there do not have any here and they have no clue what i am talking about.

  • Aww great video. its looks so easy to grow the wheatgrass. I found this facebook page good reading. `Live fresh greens. wheatgrass juice, super greens & alkaline foods`

  • Wheatgrass is hard to grow. How do you get it to not mold? Also I would suggest a high quality wheatgrass press, I purchased one from Amazon.com and it is worthless. It takes almost a whole tray of wheatgrass to press out a shot. For me I guess its easier to go to the Coop and get a shot..;)

  • I used to grow indoors until I tested for mold & bacteria. Now I only use dried cereal grass in glass bottles, which is tested, is much greener & grown naturally in cold Kansas winters in its proper climate. It's also a whole food, so my colon gets the chlorophyll-rich roughage that produced the amazing results in the research. Warm indoor conditions & crowded seeds are perfect for growing mold & bacteria, but not for cereal grass. Sprout e.coli that is killing people in Europe is also scary.

  • Video is too long, down to brass taxes!

  • @ronbobathon As a prior farmer yes. They do pull nutrients. As soon as you see the roots they are capable of pulling nutrients. I was raised around only one medium, dirt. Its what's worked for the last few million years. I don't get starving them of light for the first few days. Other than to slow down growth or saturate the blades. Take it from me you are doing it right. The proof is in the color.

  • yea! this is great! i've just run out the back to fill a glass baking tray with compost + planted my seeds + watered good-o; now i realise that i should, ideally, have sprouted them first. So, i'll just have to climb out of bed + set aside a handful of wheat grass seeds + try your version. Also today, i made elder flower cordial or elixir - 10 pints of the stuff at the cost of 68c [that's euro cents] per pint; not bad eh? also used limes + did a ginger/mint version - all with natural fruit sugar

  • When i got my wheatgrass juice From a store (they sell it :P) it tasted like Wet grass

  • After I germinate the wheat berries, I place them on starter soil or perlite/ vermiculite/ peat moss combo, both with loose soil below. I have been told this is unnecessary, as the tap root that forms (when the grass spits, I am assuming) later pulls the nutrients from the soil, and the sprout gets it from the berry. But I notice that soil mix = greener, robust grass that tastes better by 7-8" tall? I am hallucinating, or does the grass really start pulling nutrients at 4-5"?

  • Where do you buy the baby Blankets? What store

  • Comment removed

  • @touchmyfire2 you can buy them at there website sprout people.org just look for mediums in the sprouting supply category, but right now their out of stock

  • 8:11 It's alive!

  • I'd like to grow wheatgrass for my juicing needs but it seems i would need a government grant to stay home and do nothing but deal with my wheatgrass crops

  • Triticale is a real grain, not just from Star Trek? I had no idea. Thanks for the tutorial!

  • Amazing video! Thanks!

  • Couldn't you just use a washcloth instead of a baby blankent?

  • @dfrisable not the same thing its a growers term not an actual blanket section

  • What kind of store can I get those black trays from? I bought some online, but they are huge and I think the crop will be bad before I go through the whole thing.

    With that said, also- how long is it good for? Should it be refrigerated at any point?

  • lol @ squirrels.

  • Love the videos man, keep up the good work

  • I cant believe it does not require soil at all !

  • Can anyone guess the first word written on his hand at 4:03 ? I have " ______ FRIDGE"

  • Comment removed

  • wish my hair grew like that

  • Can you benifet all the good stuff about wheatgrass if you don't use soil. also, can you grow them in the dark or in a room with no sunlight and still be ok?

  • Thank you so much for taking the time to make this video. It was really nice. I will plan some to give to my mother.

  • Fantastic video, thank you very much !! :-))

  • will the grass keep, growing back after each time you cut?

  • will the grass keep, growing back after each time you cut?

  • In case people want to use this for larger areas, use 2.5ml of wheat per square inch. So a 10x10" tray is 250ml=1 cup

  • Anyone knows why you dont let them in the sun immediately!

  • I  love taking nutritional wisdom from someone who is overweight and unfit.

  • thanks soo much >I am currently at the stage where its grown quite a bit...one more day and then I will let the sun take over...many thanks..

    too your health:)

  • So after i grow one tray, do i just cut it above the root to juice, or actually use the roots as well? After i cut it, will it grow back, or do i need to keep planting new crops?

  • "look at that grass" lmao

  • MUCHAS GRACIAS

  • Thanks!!

  • How many CM does the grass need to grow before I give it sunlight?

    Great video!

  • THANK YOU

  • hiii, what type of grass is?? what is your name??... or is grass seed only??

  • very well done - thank you

  • I chew it. 

  • I love growing grass its my fav past time

  • what is the writing on the hand at 4:27? xxxxx FRIDGE. So is it true the grass grows faster if you sprout it for longer like 3 days?

  • wow you wasted lots of water.

  • @molinobeer worry more about the ROOT CAUSE of problems, like there not being enough water- Endless Growth Economics and the overpopulation it demands.

  • i toooootttttttttttally enjoyed this video. thanks for sharing.

  • thank you for making me believe i can do it too lol great Video, thanks for sharing

  • Do i need a "specialist" type of juicer for juicing wheatgrass.

  • @HarmonicaWarrior a special juicer is nice, but i make it in my blender and a lil water and then strain it in a nutmilk bag. it's the ghetto way but it works!

  • Thank you.

  • 24 hours laterr

  • too awesome! I can't wait to start, thanks!

  • too much work to do!!

    do you have other easy way~~~

  • Can you please inform me on how long you need to grow to get more seeds to sow???

  • how do you figure.? If wheat grass picks up everything in the soil and tap water has been found to contain many harmfull elements such as flouride arsenic lead cadmium mercury perclaurate chlorine amonia disinfection byproducts acid rain pesticide fertilizers insecticides fungicides. Just sayin you might want to check the total disolved solids on your water. I'm betting the grass would appreciate being fed super filtered remineralized alkaline water. I'll post a video

  • tap water is filthy I would neve water my plants with that

  • @heatrockhurler tap is fine

  • @heatrockhurler

    Can If you have the fortune of your very own deep well out back.

    Drawing the coolest cleanest sweetest best fresh untreated water ever tasted!

  • What is that baby blanket. What is it made of and where do you buy them.

    How much do they cost?

  • Wear did you buy you seeds for sprouts?

  • Why gress not grean?

  • I just started growing wheatgrass tonight from a kit I bought online... why can I not use the same tray to yeild countless amounts of wheatgrass? It tells me to throw up the tray dirt and roots after one harvest?

  • i actually want to try this now! looks really cool also very healthy, but i CONNOT believe its actually GRASSS!!!!! imagine what my parents would say to me eating grass haha... but awesome vid- gets to the point .... thank you

  • Upcoming video, you were right the first time! Forthcoming video would have been a chatty video willing to share it's secrets!! Enjoyed watching you and thanks for the info.

  • Amazing and very informative video.

  • I know what I am doing this summer thanks for the awsome vid :)

  • very interesting and very usefuland amazingone. All will like it sure.

    Not only this interest I am going to become a wheat farmer in my area (Kerala,India)

    thank you

  • If I don't have sunlight, what kind of affordable light can I buy and how much it needs a day? Also I heard many have trouble with fungus, is there anything more to do to prevent this? Someone recommended Citricide? Lastly, the box you made, if juiced, how many ounces would it give of wheat grass juice, lets say people drink 2-4 ounces a day? So you would have wheat grass available several days a week, how many you need in rotation? P.S. Whats an affordable juicer you recommend? Thanks.

  • 24 hours later.

  • Very useful video!

  • Gracias!

  • i hate u

  • wow...what a smooth and calming voice. U should record yourself reading childrens books and sell them, they would be a smash hit.

  • i am wondering why my wheat had white sticky stuff popping out... i mean i remember when i was little i used to chew wheat and that when it used to become gum like texture...

    Am i not using right kind of wheat grain

  • Where can i find baby blanket? can i find it at home hardware store?

  • where to buy easy sprouter and baby blanket...

  • i have seen lots of wheatgrass growing videos i havent seen one talking about the fungus growth problem that can develop on my wheat grass any sugestions? someone said a fan when i put a fan it dries up the newspaper on top of trays very fast, i decided to look deeper in the problem ended up worry for i read a ton of bad reactions to toxic fungus if you have any suggestions or experience with such i appreciate it, this is my first batch.

  • HELL YES!!!!

  • thanks brother, great video... much appriciated c('o,')o

  • cool, thanks, now for a newbie Q:

    How many times can you harvest this grass? Is it possible to keep it growing continuously for multiple harvests?

  • Sorry to criticize but I'd like if you could add some text saying how long has passed every time you do the rather irritating 't w e n t y f o u r h o u r s l a t e r' thing.

    I could go back and count them but I'm sure you want your info to be as helpful as possible. I must say, yours is the most complete instruction I have found. You answer all the questions.

    Thank you.

  • This is SUCH an excellent video. THANK YOU! I teach a growing grass unit in my Algebra class and this video is going to be such a great addition to the unit.

  • where do i buy the seeds  i thought it would be in the info box but nopers

  • where do i get that baby blanket thing? I don't want to use a soil or soilless medium. can I do that?

  • After youve cut the wheatgrass, if u water it, will it grow back?

  • I would like to know how to grow organic nutrient dense wheat grass. This stuff has to be toxic from the tap water and plastic tray. Also isn't better to just eat the whole plant instead of juicing?

  • more info wheatgrassjuice.co.cc

  • This wheatgrass is uselss, wheatgrass is so good because it sucks up all the nutrients on the soil,sun,water, and makes the wheatgrass soo dense in nutrition , if you just make a seed grow out of thin our its useless.

  • @Ambushcrysis Its far from 'useless' ,the seed itself contains all the nutrients it really needs and also juicing wheatgrass is about alot more than simply getting nutrients - its the elixor of life!

  • @Ambushcrysis I agree. I'd heard that the seed only has enough energy and nutrients to last the first several days. After that point, you had to had your wheatgrass planted in good soil. As it's been said...if it isn't in the soil (nutrients), it isn't in the grass. If you're not using any soil at all...I think you can do the math on that one.
