Does this come with everything you need to grow wheatgrass? I have heard of something called azomite. Is it necessary?

It comes with everything that's needed! It's easy and stress free, and in 8 days you have your grass. FYI...my first batch was great, I cut it, and left the pan sitting there, and I got 2 batches, although, the directions tell you to throw away, and start over.

Yes, comes with everything. If you follow the instructions exactly, grows well and continues to grow as you cut off what you need. Very sweet and awesome.

You can sprinkle the Azomite over the soil or seeds if you like, you just don't want the Azomite to get into any of the tubes or they can become clogged. thank you.

You will have to drill holes yourself, as I will need to do when mine arrive Monday. I grow wheat grass and the roots need to reach the bottom tray for daily uptake of nutrient rich water. Pre-punched black trays are no longer available in my region and the blank standard trays are too flimsy to take drilling the same number of holes--they just crack and split!

If you only want to juice wheatgrass, I recommend getting a juicer designed specifically for wheatgrass. Since they only do one thing well, they are often much less expensive, too.

Azomite adds minerals to the soil; for general house plants is best to divide the plant to evade overgrowth in the pot, transplant it, or if pot is big enough add more soil with nutrients along with some natural fertilizer,

I have not tried wheatgrass in it. From everything I've read about juicers, the masticating kind are best for grasses and greens.

Many people use the Freshlife to grow wheatgrass. There are many factors that effect the growth rate and the yield. The average growth time is about 7 days. When it is 5-7 inches tall it should yield about 5 - 6 ounces of juice.

The grass will look the same, or very similar. You can grow wheatgrass with either, however the nutrition will be better in the hard red wheat. That is the one we recommend for growing wheatgrass.

Yes, it does work with wheatgrass. However, this machine makes the juicing process awkward and laborious as the suction cup feet continually loses gripping power, causing the machine to move around quite a bit. Also, on a scale of 1-10 (with 10 being the best and 1 being poor), I would rate the amount of juice extraction a 2.

go to "Pramitol 5ps, 2 Lbs" on Amazon. It gives directions/ sq ft and also has some reviews you'd be interested in. I had to double the application for a rock covered area that didn't really have a lot of weeds at all. It was early season so weeds hadn't come yet. I cannot stress enough that a complete water right after is essential.

yes, it does a good job with wheat grass. i also have a wheat grass only juicer and it works as well as that one.

You will need other fertilizer as well. This is just micro-nutrients. I use it instead of the kelp meal/azomite in this formula: http://www.motherearthnews.com/organic-gardening/complete-organic-fertilizer-zebz1309znsp.aspx?PageId=2#ArticleContent

No, this the only fertilzer you need, but you can use other minerals if you like. I would add mushroom compost mix with ground carbon carcoal if you like.

It comes with everything needed to set up immediately. Works great! We've been using it everyday since we received the grow light! No complaints at all.

When I have juiced wheatgrass, I had to push it through over multiple passes to get the juice fully extracted. Yes, it is possible, but you do want to run the wheatgrass through a few times.
