Triticum aestivum

Wheatgrass is an easy-to-grow cereal grass prized for its tender young shoots and crisp sprouts. It can be grown in trays for harvesting as fresh wheatgrass or sprouted in a jar for crunchy shoots to add to salads, sandwiches and wraps. Wheatgrass regrows after cutting, allowing multiple harvests from a single sowing. Both growing methods are quick, simple and suitable for year-round indoor production.

Approximately 25–35 seeds per gram

When to Plant (Australia)

Suitable for year-round indoor sprouting and wheatgrass production.

Planting / Sowing

For wheatgrass, soak 1 cup of seed overnight, then spread evenly over moist seed-raising mix in a tray, shallow container or basket. Keep evenly moist but avoid overwatering, as this may cause the seed to rot. Harvest when shoots reach 10–15 cm tall by cutting just above the soil surface. Plants will typically regrow, allowing 2–3 harvests.

For sprouts, soak ½ cup of seed overnight, then drain and rinse well. Place in a sprouting jar or sprouter, rinsing and draining twice daily until the sprouts reach 5–10 cm, usually in 10–14 days. Remove floating hulls during the final rinses to reduce spoilage. Fresh sprouts can be refrigerated for up to 3 days.
