Rather than being harvested shortly after germination as whole-oat sprouts, this crop is grown on a growing medium, exposed to light and allowed to develop into upright green blades before cutting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOat grass grows in a similar style to wheatgrass and barley grass. The large grains are soaked before sowing, spread densely across the tray and kept covered briefly while roots establish. Once moved into light, the shoots develop rapidly and can generally be harvested in approximately \u003cstrong\u003e8–12 days\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFresh Oat Grass for Cutting \u0026amp; Juicing\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eYoung oat grass has a mild, fresh and slightly sweet grassy flavour. Unlike tender leafy microgreens such as broccoli or mizuna, cereal grasses become increasingly fibrous as they grow and are generally better suited to cutting and juicing than eating whole as a salad green.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eHarvest when the blades are bright green, upright and approximately \u003cstrong\u003e10–15cm tall\u003c\/strong\u003e. Cut immediately before use where practical for the freshest flavour and texture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eDense Tray-Grown Cereal Grass\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWhole oat grains are much larger than most microgreen seeds, so they are sown at a comparatively high rate to create a dense stand of grass. For a standard 25 × 50cm tray, approximately \u003cstrong\u003e180–220g of dry seed\u003c\/strong\u003e provides a useful starting density.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor tray growing, use a well-drained medium such as \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/ozsprout.com.au\/products\/coco-fibre-growing-medium\"\u003eCoco Fibre Growing Medium\u003c\/a\u003e in a \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/ozsprout.com.au\/products\/microgreen-wheatgrass-grow-tray\"\u003eMicrogreen \u0026amp; Wheatgrass Grow Tray\u003c\/a\u003e. Even sowing, good drainage and consistent airflow help prevent excessive moisture from collecting around the soaked grain.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eGrown Differently from Whole-Oat Sprouts\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOat grass and oat sprouts begin with the same type of viable whole grain but are grown for different harvest stages. Oat grass is sown onto a growing medium, allowed to root into the tray and grown under light until long green blades develop.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe finished crop is harvested by \u003cstrong\u003ecutting the grass above the growing medium\u003c\/strong\u003e, leaving the grain and root mat behind. This listing is specifically intended for growers wanting fresh tray-grown oat grass rather than short germinated oat sprouts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFast-Growing Indoor Grass Crop\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOnce established, oat grass develops quickly into a dense green canopy. Bright light encourages strong upright blades, while bottom watering helps keep the grain layer and foliage drier as the root mat develops.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eUnder suitable conditions, most trays are ready for their first cut in approximately \u003cstrong\u003e8–12 days from sowing\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ozsprout","offers":[{"title":"500g","offer_id":42801966153971,"sku":"OATSUNHULLED-500G","price":5.9,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1kg","offer_id":42801966186739,"sku":"OATSUNHULLED-1KG","price":10.9,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"2kg","offer_id":42801966219507,"sku":"OATSUNHULLED-2KG","price":19.9,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"3kg","offer_id":42801966252275,"sku":"OATSUNHULLED-3KG","price":27.9,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"4kg","offer_id":42801966285043,"sku":"OATSUNHULLED-4KG","price":35.9,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"5kg","offer_id":42801966317811,"sku":"OATSUNHULLED-5KG","price":43.9,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"10kg","offer_id":42801966350579,"sku":"OATSUNHULLED-10KG","price":65.9,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"20kg","offer_id":42801966383347,"sku":"OATSUNHULLED-20KG","price":125.9,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0646\/1446\/5779\/files\/organic-oat-grass-sprouting-seeds.webp?v=1759579537","url":"https:\/\/ozsprout.com.au\/products\/organic-oat-grass-microgreen-seeds","provider":"OzSprout","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
