Grow them in soil, and eat/juice the buckwheat sprouts. About 8 days from the initial soak and jar sprout to soil and eventual harvest. For me, pretty good for salad greens as an alterative to other sprouts. These will grow pretty hearty with 1" of soil in a tray and window light. Our local (Atl,GA,US) squirells will eagerly munch both sunflowers and buckwheat sprouts, amongst others, quite readily outdoors - some sort of protection, such as a cage or screen around the growing area may be needed, if outdoors. www.living-foods.com used to sell some automatic water based sprouters, but I see recently they are not selling anything but the plastic Biosta unit, a classic, but really not a sprouter for unhlulled buckwheat... Hulled buckwheat seeds are available, which *may* sprout ok, depending on quality, etc. These are the ones many raw recipe books refer to for some of the patee recipies, etc. What do you want to use them for ?
