1) First of all, this wheat grain has excellent baking quality: bread from your own garden.

5) Finally: sown in a pot of soil, cat grass is created, purringly delicious for your cat!

This variety is cultivated as a sprout vegetable (for the white sprout) or as a microgreen (for the young plant with cotyledon or first true leaf). Sprout cultivation is done in the dark and warmth; the sprouts can stay fresh in the refrigerator for a week, provided they are well-drained. Microgreens are grown on moisture-retaining material (paper towel, cotton wool, soil). For germination, dark and warm; after germination, light and cooler.
