Guest guest Posted November 12, 2008 Report Share Posted November 12, 2008 have you tyhought sprouting and growing young buckwheat greens to eat, grown in just couple days, add it to salads. And for the bugs, DE is the best thing ever! It is totally safe and natural and does kill mechanically every insects and bad bacterias, not earthworms, and we can even consume it to health improvement or kill parasites. http://wolfcreekranch1.tripod.com/diatomaceous_earth_mites.html --- En date de : Mer, 12.11.08, haecklers <haecklers@...> a écrit : De: haecklers <haecklers@...> Objet: Re: problem: buckwheat with hulls À: Date: mercredi 12 Novembre 2008, 7 h 00 Have you thought about returning it to the store?
