I've experimented with just water vs water and Hydroponic nutrients. Adding nutrients tripled the yield. I grow mine in an aeroponic system but I've grown it in plastic sprout trays. The best way in a tray is to fill the tray about half way with perlite. Top the perlite with paper towels and spinkle a cup and a half of wheat berries on top. Add water and nutrients if you want. Cover the tray until the grass is about an inch tall. Put a fan on it to prevent mold.

does anyone know of ways to get higher yielding grass that does not involve being a peckhead like these guys??

I am sure we don't need to go to extreme RAW or VEGAN diets. Just cut out excess sugar and other carbohydrates will do the trick. Go back some 30 years to what our grandparents ate. Sure there were junk food then, but NO Macers or KFC etc. Fast foods were not affordable, so we ate home cooked simple meat and veg meals.

wheatgrass is very healthy you can grow your own and juice it. you can get a sprouter tray. rather have fresh then the dried

Same here.

no sunlight or soil = empty green shoots that only look like real grass. nutrients come from the soil. it disgusts me when factories go completely against nature by taking everything that is good and real away from something perfect and beautiful to package it and make a fortune. It's ridiculous.

Aeroponic is a way of high yield growth.

This way of growing "food" is just another atempt to make farms into factories, to eradicate the dependance of humans on "unclean", uncontrollable nature and make other beings, like plants into factory products. I would never eat any of it.

If you feed your plants with a watery chemical soup, that's what they will have to offer for you. Good food needs good earth. It's a shame they call that organic.

Hard to believe that artificialy growing anything could be better than nature. Allot of the nutrients absorbed into the grass comes from good soil for most plants. I'd assume the same for wheat grass.
