It is known as “farro” when hulled and cooked whole. Lucille is a spring planted variety, best planted around early April and harvested in about late June. Grains will need to be dehulled before they can be cooked or milled into flour. There are homestead-scale dehullers available, or with a little DIY ingenuity, you can retrofit a grain grinder with dehulling pads, like in this \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=MdoMJ9Hhaiw\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003einstructional video from Lehman’s\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e.
