Old spring wheat variety from the Mexican state of Sonora. Drought & heat tolerant, very productive, performs well at high elevations. Sow 1/4 to 1/2" deep in early spring. Harvest in summer when plants have turned golden & seed shatters easily from heads. To thresh small quantities, put the heads in bags & stomp on them, sift out the large straws & winnow by throwing the harvest up in a gentle wind with a ground cloth below. Grind in a coffee mill or blender for flour. Makes great bread. (70 days)
