Did someone tell you that coconut sprout information was inappropriate

here? If so, I missed that post.

While I, personally, am not likely to grow coconut sprouts, I don't

see what's inappropriate about discussing it.

I must have missed that post, too! I saw nothing complaining or

forbidding. Shoot, we talk about all kinds of stuff here, and no one has

complained that I know of!

I doubt I'd ever put that much effort into doing it, but it was fascinating

to learn about!

My sprouting experiment is coming along fine. So far I have sprouted alfalfa,

red clover, chia, and now my latest sprout is wheat. I have been cracking

whole oats, wheat, and brown rice for breakfast porridge with them along with

some ground flax seed and toasted walnuts. I do it all in with the dry grain

container. I chop the nuts with a knife though. I had some extra wheat goats

so I thought I would try to sprout them and they sprouted just as easily as the

rest.

I can't say overly fond of the taste of any of them so far but they health

benefit of them drives me to find the right combination to mask the potent

flavor.

I am kind of perplexed about wheatgrass. Some claim you have to juice and some

say blending them is ok. The ones that are preaching juicing say the grass is

indigestible. I am not sure I follow this logic because what is difference

between wheatgrass and other insoluble fiber? Another thing I am not sure of

either is when I see people harvest wheatgrass all they do is cut it with

scissors like mowing the grass. Does anyone know how many times if any you can

harvest wheat grass?

My thoughts on the matter of "Can You Put Wheat Grass In A Green Smoothie" at the link by the same title here:/linksI think that two cuttings is all most people do…
