If you are having difficulties with fungus when trying to grow sprouts, the problem may lie in the equipment rather than the seeds that you are using.  Try sterilizing your sprouter.  Actually, that is something that should be scheduled every so often between crops.

Also, make sure you are actually seeing fungus.  The tiny, fuzzy looking, root hairs that sometimes appear may give you the wrong impression.

For persistent problems check with the experts.  There are lots of sprouting forums on line, with a lot of good advice available.  There you will find those who are willing and able to address specific concerns.

If you’re a health buff then you should know about wheat grass.  It is a term used for young Agropyron or grass plants.  It is known to have a number of beneficial qualities.  Wheat grass can be cultivated at home quite effortlessly.  Wheat grass kits come with wheat grass seeds and everything you need to grow your own crop at home.

Wheat grass is most commonly made into juice.  The juice is said to contain a high level of chlorophyll.  When chlorophyll is induced, it helps stop the growth of harmful bacteria in the body.  It also helps revitalize the bloodstream making it beneficial to one’s health.  In addition, because wheat grass is high in chlorophyll, your body is bombarded with oxygen which increases mental and physical performance.
