Pesticides are applies in an oil base so that the rain doesn't wash them off consequently rinsing with water doesn't wash them off so I put a couple drops of natural dish soap from the health food store on a brush and scrub the veggies with cold water and rinse thouroughly. Wallahh, that's all those expensive veggie washes are but soap to cut the oily pesticide residues.

I like to juice fresh wheat grass with a handful of fresh parsley which is much gives a more accepable favoror. Also you could add fresh kale leaves which to me are horrible cooked.

You need to let them grow longer till ALL the hulls fall off. When growing buckwheat they sprout unevenly so even though they might appear green and bright in 7 days, when you spread the leaves apart you will see maybe half the crop still has seed hulls that haven't bloomed so wait maybe 3-6 days more and all the hulls usually are spent by then and so much easier to clean and eat upon harvesting

Alha Diana, What a cool idea although I am not sure you have the bright light needed, although you could feed, keep them from freezing, above 65 degrees that is, and water and grow them tall. What sort of sun lighting source do you have? They like tons of water and fertilizer and compost even capable of growing in standing water unlike most plants. It takes 1 1/2 years to grow a bunch and o

About problems with growing your own sprouts. Garbonzo is sometimes difficult - First off it is counterproductive to keep rinsing the beans because logically that seems to make sence, but just because something appears logical that is not always the best thing to do because it actually increases the funking out effect. Vibrantly fresh dry garbonzos are actually very easy to sprou

Now I don't have children and I am not knowlagable about when to start feeding what types of food to very young babies but I am very knowlagable in diet and nutrition and have studied it on my own for about 30 years now and am vegetarian so what I liked that I read here was most of the advice but what struck a cord was 1 - Don't worry if your child doesn't eat anything for a day. I see so many
