Wheatgrass question

[Guest guest]

I have been growing wheatgrass successfully but on occasion I get a fuzzy growth

toward the bottom of the grass. I assume this to be a mold or fungus. I grow

with medium vermeculite, kelp fertilizer and in trays with no drainage holes. I

don't over water or swamp the grass. Please help!!!

Also is this the best cost prohibitive way to grow.

Drainage holes may help although if you don't overwater it should be ok without

them. I almost always have mold when I do wheatgrass. Others have said good air

circulation is essential-have you tried using a fan? I've grown when it was

relatively cool and almost always developed mold. Others have said, as long as

it is washed well before juicing, it shouldn't be an issue. I've pretty much

given up on growing mold free wheatgrass. I've emailed the wheatgrass

trucker-see youtube, re mold issues and he has none. He uses small amounts of

soil on cookie sheets so the roots get a lot of air. I've also used peroxide and

citricide in my water, and still have mold. It's also very dependent on the

location/ room/ furnishings where you grow the grass. Best of luck.
