Hard Red Winter Wheat – The "Homestead Staple" for High-Protein Flour and Nutty Homemade Bread
Shop the highest quality Hard Red Winter Wheat seeds and take the ultimate step toward total food independence. When it comes to traditional milling, Hard Red Winter is the "Pantry Protector." This heirloom is famous for being planted in the autumn, braving the winter snows, and emerging in spring to produce a heavy harvest of dark, hard kernels. At The Seed Guy, we believe we aren't just selling seeds; we are planting a crop that stands strong through the winter snows, the unmatched aroma of a home-baked loaf, and the quiet confidence of a self-sufficient breadbasket.
In the garden, Hard Red Winter Wheat is a resilient survivor. This variety is the premier choice for anyone who wants to "get your knead on"—producing a high-protein flour with excellent "strength" for towering loaves of bread and chewy pizza crusts. Just visualize the steam rising off a fresh loaf of bread while the coffee is brewing; that is the reward for a winter's worth of patience. It is a fantastic companion plant for crimson clover, which helps protect the soil during the cold months. At The Seed Guy, our seeds are tested for elite germination, ensuring you get strong, golden stalks that deliver a "Prize-Winning Harvest" for your family’s table.

Hard Red Winter Wheat Planting Instructions:
1. When to Plant: Plant in the late summer or early fall (at least 6-8 weeks before the ground freezes). The wheat needs to grow about 4 inches tall before it goes dormant for the winter.
2. Preparation: Choose a sunny location. Winter wheat is great for reclaiming garden beds that just finished their summer vegetable production.
3. Sowing: Plant seeds 1 inch deep. For a homestead plot, you can "broadcast" the seeds evenly and lightly rake them into the soil.
4. Care: Once the spring thaw begins, your wheat will "wake up" and grow rapidly. Ensure it stays weed-free during this early spring growth spurt.
5. Pests and Diseases: Protect the ripening heads from birds in early summer. Harvest when the kernels are "rock hard" and the stalks have turned a beautiful golden straw color.
Triticum aestivum
