Here are some testimonials about using Ocean Grown solution. I first heard about it from David Wolfe. I am going to use this in growing my wheatgrass. My latest tray is being harvested now and I don't have nearly as much mold as the last one. I used half the amount of seeds in the same tray.

Dear OceanGrown,
Over the last 15 years I have had great interest in the nutrition of myself, my family and those closest to me. In my lifelong quest for perfect nutrition, I have been introduced to OceanSolution. The first time I heard the Ocean Water concept, it immediately made perfect sense. We are constantly looking for the magic ‘supplement' or perfect ‘diet' for our bodies. We literally have to look no farther than our own back yard. Mother Nature is an amazing force, which provides us the resources in abundance – we just have to recognize and use what she has already given us so generously.
I have been an orchid grower for 15 years. Aside from the nutritional benefits of OceanSolution, I was anxious to try them on my plants. I reduced the solution to 600 ppm, as orchids are very sensitive to mineral build up. I am proud to say, that I have more blooming plants, plants in spike (bud) and the healthiest new growth I have ever had. My plants immediately responded to the OceanSolution, and have put on strong healthy growth over the last year. I have had plants bloom that I had given up on – they had not bloomed in the last 10+ years, and now have beautiful flowers.
OceanSolution is an amazing resource that everyone should be taking advantage of.
After all, you can't do any better than Mother Nature!
Sincerely,

Dear OceanGrown,
Dane and I wanted to personally thank you for giving us some valuable insight on plant physiology and nutrition. We, being among the brainwashed in traditional, conventional and commercial methodologies of plant health, have benefitted greatly from the knowledge you have generously shared with us. It is quite an amazing thing to be in the citrus business for over 30 years and not be aware of the quickest and healthiest way to grow a citrus tree. By taking your advice and following your instructions, we achieved some fantastic results.
Sincerely,
Dane and Kip Scofield

Dear OceanGrown,
I am excited about the potential for growth for OceanGrown. The "new growth" on those old YTD (young tree decline) sick trees represents a reversal at the tissue level. This is a positive sign for the citrus grower. Perhaps your treatment could be used just as well on other food crops, e.g., to retard insect infestation also. A vigorous tree or plant is definitely more resistant than less healthy plants.
Good nutrition = good thoughts = more peace.

Dear Enquirers,
I am the President and a stockholder in OceanGrown, LLC. I have always been impressed when testimonials came from top business executives and especially when they came from owners and senior management. They usually come across as sincere and genuine to me. It is in that spirit that I offer my own experiences with OceanGrown’s wheatgrass products.
For the last twenty odd years I have been on the hunt for the essential health factors, factors that in no nonsense ways actually affect health unequivocally. I met one of OceanGrown's founders in the spring of 2000, we talked late into the night about health, life, religion, food, farming, and many other subjects including "Sea Energy Agriculture". After I returned home we continued the dialogue. He would send OceanGrown wheatgrass to Connecticut, my home at the time, and so the journey began.
I’ve been drinking wheatgrass juice ever since and these are the results so far.
* Lost twenty pounds (198 to 178, the same weight as when I graduated high school) without effort or change in exercise habits. Simply the cravings went away and I never felt hungry anymore.
* From the age of eleven have suffered from a nail fungus that evidently is resident on most of the population, who have, fortunately enough immunity to keep at bay. Consequently had no toe nails from the age of 11 to 48. Now at 51 I have them, better late then never! Totally unexpected result.
* This ones more subtle but none the less appreciated, I need much less sleep and now feel rested and ready to go at the crack of dawn and can work late into the night
Dr. Murray always said that if you get all the proper minerals in organic form in your diet your immune system would be able to fight off anything. I’m a believer, especially since I felt in good health three and a half years ago, before all these things happened.
I hope you decide to give it a go. I did and joined the company.
Sincerely,
President, OceanGrown, LLC

Dear OceanGrown:
After first having met you and your partners, I have become more convinced each time I deal with your products that they are superior to anything I have experienced. As you know, I have built a business with Carmichael's Gourmet Restaurant in Sarasota as chef and co-owner over the past four years, and I have attended numerous national and international food shows. With continuous exposure to various qualities of food, and having won the National Gourmet Chef competition last year, I feel my evaluation of superior food products is of some merit. With many years in this business, I say without hesitation that your herbs and vegetables are the best in quality, taste, appearance and shelf life of any that I have ever seen. Your method of growing food in ocean water is so unique and ecologically sound.
Sincerely,
David M. Sproules
Carmichael's Restaurant
I have followed a vegan diet, and been a daily consumer of fresh vegetable/fruit juices for the last several years — but I had not been consuming wheatgrass juice. After growing, juicing, and consuming my own wheatgrass the last three weeks (4-8 oz. of juice daily), I have noticed a significant difference in three areas: weight control, appetite suppression, and energy. First, at age 55, even with eating right and exercising, I have noticed a tendency for my weight to creep up past my ideal of 170 lbs. But since drinking wheatgrass juice daily, my weight has stabilized at 170. Second, I don't eat as much, and have noticed an absence of cravings.
The wheatgrass juice seems to satisfy my nutritional demands. Third, I have noticed a welcome change in my energy level. I don't get drowsy during the day and seem to need a bit less sleep. When growing my wheatgrass for juicing, I have watered it with OceanSolution™, and can only theorize that the additional minerals in the OG Solution are 'empowering' the wheatgrass. I plan to make wheatgrass juice (grown with OG Solution) a regular part of my nutrition regimen.

- Wheatgrass...Mold..and Ocean Water by Lapis

A couple things.
The ocean grown solution is very powerful and can also be used as a solution for growing superior sprouts, vegetables, etc but wheatgrass really does well with it. The key to good physical health is high mineralization. Wheatgrass takes up the minerals in the ocean water and places them in a usable form in the matrix of the plant. When we juice the plant, we get those useable and highly potent minerals as well as "sun energy".
It must be noted that for superior wheatgrass it MUST be grown outdoors. It is better to grow for three seasons out doors and freeze juice for the 4th season than to try and grow anemic and moldy wheatgrass indoors.
Many people that think they are having a "detox" reaction to wheatgrass are actually having a reaction to mold.
If you think you MUST grow indoors then you can reduce your mold even more by spraying the sprouts with homemade colloidal silver daily and making sure you have excellent drainage. Wheatgrass is not a bog plant so water saturated roots will generate mold. They need to cycle between wet and dry. Also an expensive, full spectum lighting rig is needed and even then, due to poor circulariob, mold is still a possibility.
OUTDOORS IS SUPERIOR!!!

i have discovered thru personal experience that you are basically correct. it is hard to grow wheatgrass indoors without mold. and outdoor wild grass is the best. but when you live in the wintery north, outside grass just aint' gonna happen. silver is one option, tho i don't do colloidal silver myself anymore. i guess i am moving to another climate, yeah thats the ticket!

| Hi Lapis. I used half of the amount of seeds I used before. I also keept the tray near the window to get sun and I didn't water it as much. I watered it more on some days and less on others. I had a small quarter sized amount of white mold in one corner of the tray. Right now I can't grow wheatgrass outside but when I move, I'm going to grow wheatgrass outside. The light interests me but I'm trying to get away from using electrical appliances to save money and get a little more independent.

that is very interesting. when i was mega dosing wildcrafting wheatgrass i was getting it from the ocean side, as close to the ocean as i could. the grass close to the ocean always tasted better to me. you are in england? you really have to try finding a good source of wild grass somewhere in the spring. that grass kicks ass on anything you grow yourself. thanks for the info on this product, when i get my system up and running again i will try it.
btw, what medium do you grow your grass in, soil or perlite or ???

i dont know what ren thinks but i would do as many as you can. if you have a bad stomach reaction or someting then back off and then increase slowly. you have to increase slowly as wheatgrass is a very very powerful detoxer. you really cant do too much of it, i am a lving example. i have done more wheatgrass in a day than anyone else i have ever heard of.
so what do you think of the grass cubes? how much were they? did you order off a website?

| I concur. When I worked at Whole Foods, I wondered about frozen wheatgrass. After I finish with my last batch of homegrown, I'm going to try it. I'll have to look up something about it and post it here.
