Grow Wheatgrass at Home and Take its Advantages
This lockdown has taught us the importance of our health and
body. We in this era have dwelled ourselves into making money, high profiled
jobs and posh living styles. Thus, the need of healthy eating has become the
need of the hour. Today in this blog, I will tell you some amazing benefits of
Wheatgrass and how we can easily grow it at our homes, without using any organic
or chemical fertiliser.
Wheatgrass as its name suggests is the roots and shoots
grown from the general wheat (gehu) which we eat and have at our homes.
Health Benefits of Wheat Grass:
- · Wheatgrass is proven to have many different vitamins and minerals. Wheatgrass is high in vitamins A, C and E, as well as iron, magnesium, calcium and amino acids. Due to these it helps us protect against heart diseases, cancer, arthritis and neurodegenerative diseases.
- · Wheatgrass has also been proven to help in lowering of cholesterol level.
- · It also regulates High blood sugar that can cause an array of symptoms, including headaches, frequent urination, thirst and fatigue.
- · Weight loss is very prevalent in humans of today era; this magical grass also helps in regulating weight loss.
Step by step process of growing wheatgrass easily at our
homes:
· We will first need some wheat
· take the normal whole grain wheat and soak it in
water for whole night
· After the night you will see the size difference
in wheat, also some sprouting will also start, this will boost process of
germination
· This soaked wheat can be grown in both water and
soil, we will today see the process in water
· For growing wheatgrass in water take basket
that has small holes, Keep in mind that the holes should be very small
· Spread all the seeds and make a
proper and even layer of it
· After that take a wet cotton cloth and cover the
seeds from the cloth. Make sure that the cloth is always moist, just spray some
water on it regularly. If cloth will not be moist then seeds will stop the
process of sprouting.
· Further we will need a base pot in which we
will fill water
· Take a pot and place the basket above it. When
roots will grow from basket, they will take nutrition from the water of pot
· For the initial process we will cover the wheat
with cloth till sprouting is there, after that we will remove the cloth
· Water level is the next most important thing. Water
should be till the rim of the basket, it should only touch the base. If water
will cover the basket then seeds will start rotting.
· Keep spraying water in every two hours
· Keep it in shade area and leave for two days
· After two days you will find small roots and
shoots
· Keep changing the water in every 24 hours, then
you will not need any fertiliser and also you will get healthy wheatgrass.
· After 6 or 7 days wheatgrass will become 6
inches long after that you can harvest it and enjoy the nutritious value of amazing
wheatgrass.
