Delicate and nutritious: Soft White Wheat sprouting seeds yield tender, mild-flavored sprouts that are perfect for adding a subtle, nutty taste to your favorite dishes. These sprouts are an excellent source of fiber, essential vitamins, and minerals, making them a healthful addition to a balanced diet. Soft White Wheat is also commonly grown for wheatgrass, prized for its detoxifying and energizing properties when juiced.

How to Grow: Begin by soaking the seeds in water for 8–12 hours to initiate the germination process. After soaking, drain and rinse the seeds thoroughly, then spread them evenly in a sprouting jar or tray. Rinse and drain the seeds twice daily, ensuring they remain moist but not waterlogged. Keep the sprouting container in a warm, ventilated area out of direct sunlight. In 2–4 days, you’ll see vibrant sprouts emerging.

Harvesting: The sprouts are ready to harvest when they are 1–2 inches long, usually within 2–4 days of starting. Rinse them well and enjoy their fresh, mild taste in salads, sandwiches, or wraps. For wheatgrass, allow the shoots to grow longer until they reach 6–8 inches, then cut and juice for a nutrient-packed drink.
