Wheatgrass newsletter- "The Grassy Report"

SECOND EDITION, SPRING 2005

Hi all and welcome to the Grassy Report.
The weather has been warming up here in "sunny" Melbourne as we rapidly approach the Christmas silly season.

For all of you wheatgrass growers out there we are coming into the season of mould, so I thought it might be a good idea to give you a few tips and ideas on how to help combat it.

We have also introduced a brand new product to our range Dr Wheatgrass Supershots, as well as a fantastic special for November. If you are planning to order a wheatgrass growing kit or juicer as a Christmas present make sure that you get in early as the postal system gets very busy as we approach the end of the year.

Dr Wheatgrass Supershots

A new way to take wheatgrass!

  • 30 shots in one bottle
  • Convenient
  • Tasty citrus flavour
  • Cost effective (83 cents per shot)
  • 2 year shelf life
  • Organically Grown and gluten free
  • Safe for kids and the elderly
Here's a great wheatgrass alternative for those with very busy lifestyles and that find the taste of wheatgrass a little hard to swallow.

Dr Wheatgrass Supershots contain a natural, specifically formulated antioxidant-rich extract derived from organically grown fresh wheatgrass sprouts.

The extract includes a number of biological actives that have the power to restore and maintain energy and boost the immune system.

Here is a product which will especially benefit those who have very busy lifestyles and who don't have time to grow and juice wheatgrass every day but would still like to continue their daily shot of wheatgrass. It will also be good for those who struggle with the taste of wheatgrass as it tastes pretty good (mandarin flavour).
It will be well worth having a bottle in the cupboard for when you go travelling, or don't have time to make a juice, and it will last for up to 2 years.

Wheatgrass And Mould

Mould growth is very common when growing wheatgrass.  Because the shoots are grown very close together the moist conditions at the base of the shoots are the perfect environment for mould to grow, especially in the warmer times of the year. As annoying as it may be, mould that grows on wheatgrass has been found to be harmless to humans and when you are ready to juice you can cut above the affected areas.
  • One method you can use to reduce mould growth is to use the best wheat grain. Sprout Organic Wheatgrass is constantly testing new varieties of certified organic and biodynamic wheats which are less prone to mould.
  • Keep your wheatgrass in a well ventilated position.
  • On the hotter days i.e. temperatures over 30ºc, perhaps move the tray of wheatgrass inside or to the coolest place available.
  • Avoid soaking the wheatgrass seed for too long during hotter days.
  • Avoid over watering your wheatgrass.
