In Reply to: Growing Wheat, How?? posted by Bryce Frazier on February 16, 2014 at 18:42:31:
Well, water isn't a problem, the chicken coop is 10 feet away and we have it completely plumbed. We have a HUGE garden that we already grow everything in, carrots, potatoes, beans, 5 berries, flowers, lettuce and a lot more. (which is also right next to where I am planting) We don't however have a way to produce wheat, or grain for that matter. I am at least going to try it, my only fertilizer will be Horse Manure. I will put it out very heavy before the rototiller, and that will be it for the year. Last year we had a small crop of Barley IN the manure pile... I think only about 15 plants, but the only think I can figure is that it must have been fed to the horse, and then the manure was given to us!
I used my sickle a lot around the house, mainly just foolin around in some grass, but I put a nice edge on it, and it works good.
When I am drying the grain, I need to leave it outside right? When it comes time to thresh it, could I do it on the concrete floor in the shop? I would lay a trap down on top of it, but it would be nice and hard!
