Days to Maturity: 70 to 90

An heirloom variety, Organic Buckwheat is highly versatile, suitable for growing as a cover crop, a forage crop, or even as microgreens. Buckwheat produces edible "grain" (actually kernels) that are rich in fiber and typically ground into flour and used in a variety of foods.

A quick-growing, warm-season annual, buckwheat seeds germinate quickly, within 3 to 4 days, and thrive in nutrient deficient and uncultivated soils. Reaching a mature height of 24 to 36 inches, buckwheat is an attractive, well-branched plant with its heart-shaped green leaves growing along red stems. The plant flowers heavily and continuously for weeks, setting clusters of pinkish buds and white blossoms, and is suitable for use in flower beds and vegetable gardens. The wildflowers are not only beautiful and long-lasting in bouquets but also abundantly nectar rich. They attract and support a variety of beneficial insects, including honeybees and ladybugs, which increases yields of crops planted nearby.

A low-maintenance, warm-season cover crop, buckwheat improves crop diversity, water infiltration and availability, and soil health. Annual buckwheat is primarily grown for its rich nitrogen-fixing bacteria and is reported to make phosphorous more available as a soil nutrient through root-associated mycorrhizae. But it is also used as "green manure" when mowed before it goes to seed (about when 50% of crop has bloomed) and mulched back into garden soil at the end of the season, improving tilth and adding organic matter to the soil, feeding your soil for future harvests. Buckwheat is not winter hardy, which makes it easy to terminate and mulch back into the garden. Buckwheat also slows erosion, suppresses weeds, and helps control garden pests, such as thrips, mealybugs, and other leafhoppers.

Buckwheat is often used as forage for livestock. Although Buckwheat has a lower nutritional value than most forage grains. It is high in lysine (an amino acid), which is deficient in other grains; however, for forage, it should be grown with other grains, such as barley, corn, oats, rye, or wheat.

A Fagopyrum esculentum variety, Buckwheat is a broadleaf cultivar in the Polygonaceae family and is entirely unrelated to wheat. Open-pollinated, it produces seed that grows true to variety, ideal for seed saving.

Buckwheat can also be grown as microgreens. Mature and ready to harvest in 7 to 14 days, the shoots have leafy green tops and hints of red and yellow along the stem. They have a citrus-like flavor with tart and tangy notes and are high in vitamins B, C, and K as well as folic acid and fiber.

Perfect for Blind Dogs, Fun and Durable
Size: 2-pack, Style: Duo
My blind dog loves these Chuckit! sniff balls. She can easily sniff them out and plays fetch with them for 20 minutes a day, even running up and down the stairs. The balls are durable, bounce well, and the bacon and peanut butter scent keeps her engaged. I do wish Chuckit! would bring back the version with a tone so we could play fetch outside more easily. Overall, a fantastic toy for dogs that rely on scent and a fun way to keep them active.

My Golden Loves

My 8 month old Golden Retriever loves these. It is also one of the few products she cannot destroy. They smell as described and she loves to chew them and play fetch when. She can chew these easily without destroying them. Overall good value for the money for my Golden

If they squeaked, they would be the perfect ball!
Size: 2-pack, Style: Duo
I bought our 15 month old Coton several Chuck-It toys on an Amazon deal. He is incredibly playful, mischievous, and ball/toy obsessed, especially for anything that makes noise. He can also be very destructive so I love how durable most of their products are - they’re among our longest lasting toys and worth every penny. We have yet to take them to the dog park, but they’re a perfect size for sharing in plat time. And they are keeping him busy at home - that’s a good thing. The scent is subtle but strong enough for him I guess because he loves gnawing on them. If they had squeakers, they would be absolutely perfect. Hopefully Chuck-It will see an opportunity for that down the road!
