My Buckwheat

Just wanted to show off my first homegrown buckwheat groats. I have quite a bit growing, so hopefully should get quite a bit from it. By the end of this year I want to have made a nearly, if not fully free Gluten Free beer.

Thats awesome! If anything, you have some nice looking garden plants.

Thanks man. They look really good. Also, they help to attract honey bees which I have seen quite a lot come in, they eat the bad bugs so protect my hops and my spuds. I think next year, I will build a raised bed just for growing buckwheat. I am also going to try and save some groats from this lot, so I don't have to pay anything. I like free.

Just a thought, I have a little green house shelter type thing, I might try and grow some in the winter in there considering it originates in Russia, our winter would be like a warm summers day to it.
