What is dried wheat?

Wheat can be used a number of methods depending on the size of the operation, the nature of the harvest and the intended purpose for food. The wheat grain, which was harvested prematurely, is often subject to rapid drying to reduce its moisture content to the required 14 percent required for long -term storage. However, some are not interested in dried wheat as food, instead of dry wheat stems with natural or artificial media for use in long -term floral arrangements or wreaths. Several retailers are launching their wheat organization online as iconic symbols for reward and autumn.

For storing dried wheat in agricultural environment, two basic methods are used.

When dried wheat is not needed for food products, but instead its aesthetic potential, all drying methods are used together. The stems will be chopped on the stem and leave the cores of the head and beard intact and most of the stopwatch. These stems are tied in volumes of £ 2. (Nearly 1 kg) or more and suspended upside down from the hook, up to the air. The dried wheat production process often accelerates with various dryers such as Borax, corn starch, sawdust or sand.

The type of dried wheat used for decorative purposes could be any number of regional types. The varieties in tan are common, brown, green and almost black, with bearded or beard without beard. Several specialized specific specifics are also available as a coast and vertical wheat. AlthoughThey often leave natural, some can heal wheat and other elements of dried floral arrangement with shellac to keep their heads intact for a long time.

Some flower shops paint gold stems in several colors for rainbow effect or coordinate with other elements of the arrangement.
