Here at Hippocrates we are frequently asked by our guests how many sprouts they should plan to grow at home. The chart below will help you determine how many trays of wheatgrass and sprouts to grow each week. Your results will vary based upon several variables that will affect your yield. Everything from the quality of your seeds, tray type, dirt, water, drainage, temperature, humidity, lighting, ventilation, pH, type of juicer, music, intention, energy, stage of harvest, length of time storing cut grass, etc. The closer you grow to the way we grow here at Hippocrates the closer your results will be to what we get here.
