Growing it is usually no problem provided you can find enough viable seed for your plot size. The real challenge for small plot gardening of any type of grain is the effort it takes to harvest. You’ll likely need to do it by hand which means, cutting it into bundles, then threshing and flailing it to knock the grain out of the hulls and then winnowing it to separate the grain from the chaff.
