They put pot on sand and they put ragi in the sandRagi grass also looks similar to the wheat grass. Marie,

I've wanted to try growing wheatgrass for a long time, but haven't really known how to start. Now that I know it's so easy, I'll go for it! What kinds of things can you use wheatgrass for? (Besides it looking beautiful, of course.) What a fun idea! I’ve wanted to try growing wheatgrass for a long time, but haven’t really known how to start. Now that I know it’s so easy, I’ll go for it!

I've done 100 cups of wheat grass for a party at church. I used plastic cups & poked drainage holes in them by using a nail (held with pliers) heated over my gas burner. (Electric burners work even easier.) You could even grow your own mung sprouts or something more exotic. Instead of "watering" mine, I sprayed them with a water bottle. OH! And I didn't use any soil, just the pre-soaked wheat berries. Thanks for showing us how cute this project can be! White wheat will work (in fact, probably any inexpensive seed will).
