Help! Wheatgrass -- Growing and Juicing Questions
Hello All Wheatgrass Lovers!
After the wonderful inspiration from the folks on the sprouting and fasting threads, I decided to try my hand at growing wheatgrass.
It was a marginal success. Marginal because it did grow, but.... There's always a "but" when something doesn't turn out the way I expected it, lol!
It took about 10 days, that was okay. But it didn't stand up straight, it fell over. Is that normal? In other words, it doesn't look like all of the pictures I've seen, nor the "professional" wheatgrass I've seen.
Also, although I haven't been consuming it on a regular basis, I remember wheatgrass tasting pretty good... green, but good. Rather pleasant. Well, my crop tasted so bitter! It tasted so bad I was actually afraid to drink it! My friend, however, says it tastes like any wheatgrass she's ever had.
One last question. In the event that you report, that bitter is normal, do you have any suggestions for make it more paletable? Lemon, perhaps?
Thanks in advance for your thoughts and suggestions.
