    Wheatgrass is one of those things that doesn’t seem like it should cost a ton of money, but the price when you go to a health food store or smoothie place is always shockingly high. If you want to be able to enjoy wheatgrass at your home, Thunder Acres has a solution for you — our wheatgrass seed! 


    Keep reading to learn how to easily grow this wonderful plant, then head on over to our online store to find Kansas-grown wheatgrass seeds that could soon be sprouting up at your place!

    Start With Non-GMO Wheatgrass Seeds and Organic Fertilizer

    If you had to pick between something that had been tampered with and something that hadn’t been messed with, you would always choose the untouched item, right? That should especially be true when you are talking about things that you eat. When you get your wheatgrass somewhere else, there’s no knowing where it came from and how it has been grown. But when you buy wheatgrass seed from Thunder Acres, you’re starting as fresh as possible with our non-GMO seeds! Add some of our organic crab meal fertilizer to speed up the process without chemicals.

    Use Coco Coir

    While a lot of wheatgrass growing guides suggest using peat moss as the base for your wheat grass, we have a more environmentally friendly way to get your grass growing — coco coir! Coco coir is a fiber that is harvested from the outer shell of a coconut. There’s tons of this stuff to go around and it doesn’t disturb any delicate peat bogs.

    Be Patient (Don’t Worry — It Won’t Be Long)

    Once you’ve got everything you need (hint: check out our online store to find seeds, fertilizer, coco coir, and growing trays), mix it together, water it regularly, and you’ll have fresh wheatgrass in about 10 days!

    Enjoy Having Wheatgrass at Home!

    After the grass has grown, just clip it, grind it, and add it to your food or smoothies! Wheatgrass is also good for cats — it can help aid their digestion and it can stop them from eating other houseplants, some of which can be poisonous to kitties.
