  • A small patch of Tibetan Purple Hulless Barley is harvested & processed by hand. Threshing is done by stomping on the spikelets in a bin. Winnowing is done by pouring from bucket to bucket in a breeze, and finished in a shallow bowl by blowing.

    Thanks. Was reading Book of Ruth, and I wanted to get a visual image of the process. Thank you pastor Jesse

    I just love this. I am planting some black hulless for the very first time this year. I found your video very relaxing and I can see my focus will reduce stress just in doing this process. Thank you!

      Was your barley crop a success? How far apart did you plant each seed both ways?

    Thanks for the video! I really loved this barley harvest and processing. I was reading my Bible and I came across the word barley and I wanted to see how it looks like.

      I'm glad you appreciated the video! If you're interested in other plants from the Bible, there's some great resources out there. Here's one on flowers in the Bible: www.womanofnoblecharacter.com/flowers-in-the-bible-and-their-meanings/

    i usually eat barley or oatmeal for breakfast turns out most people dont. with food prices high might as well manufacture it myself.

    Does the seed need further processing to be consumed? From an apocolyptic survival perspective I am think thinking of harvesting wall barley and wild oat, but in survival calorithic enegy is everything. So we have to think least amount of energy for the meal. So if I can consume the seed by boiling/frying ect I will, but I know for bread the outer shell has to be removed or would you just grind the seed as it is even if the flour is a bit grainy. Thanks Aidan

      The great thing about this Barley variety is that it is hull-less and can be prepared for eating without further processing! There are also hull-less oats available through seed companies. Wild Oats have a hull, so they need to be threshed and winnowed, which adds more work.

      @@RadioFreeSunroot What about wall barley? I collected a load of wall barley and what I believed to be wild oats the other day, but because I wasn't sure I had a wild oat I threw them away. What is your knowledge of wild oats? I want to try send a photo to someone to absolutely confirm that is what I have and not false oat grass which is also very common around where i live. Thankyou Aidan

    Hey so I've got some barley that I planted in earlyish spring. I have a lady who is in charge of the community gardens telling me it's ready to harvest but it's def not dry yet like yours is. I also don't think she has any experience with grains. Is she wrong here? It's still green.

    hmm, not a very productive variety to start from. It looked decent enough though. I will see if I can find any accompanying content you may have. After a few years I hope that you have increased in both quantity and quality.
    Thank you for sharing your journey

      This was in New Mexico, which is really too hot for growing barley, so no it was not very productive. I grew this same kind in Oregon a few seasons and it did much much better there.

    for the winnowing, I wonder if a blowdryer would make it easier?

      He needs at least two people and a sheet. Keep grain in middle and bounce a few times in the air. Works the best and is the old way.

      yeah this is a solo method. With other people is more fun for sure, but not always possible.

    • @RadioFreeSunroot
      @RadioFreeSunroot  Рік тому

      I haven't tried a blow dryer but suspect it might be too forceful and blow away the seeds with the chaff. Worth trying, though. Just do it over a sheet or tarp for accidents. Also, set it for "no heat" as prolonged exposure to heat is bad for most seeds.
