It is so hard to find wheat kernals. I was so happy to find them here.21/01/2019, By GaynorHappy to find this - for some reason it is really hard to find whole wheat grains!20/12/2018, By MargieSprouts and grows quickly. I keep a pot of wheatgrass going for my dogs. They love it too.21/09/2016, By FayeI bought these to sprout - even though they are not specifically labelled as such. They sprouted up in a jar in 3 days. Then I chucked them on some potting soil and they grew about 20cm high into delicious wheatgrass (this took about 2 weeks in Cape Town winter). They also cook up well and are super tasty in salads.14/11/2015, By MaureenI use this to make rejuvelac. It is not difficult to make, just a little time consuming, but I get 100% success every time using these Kernels. I keep the unused portions of the package in the freezer so no waste.
