Has anyone tried growing Amaranth grain in your back yard? I'd be interested

Me too. I'm having my first go at amaranth. I started seedlings
inside, but I suspect direct seeding would be a better way to go.

I'm as interested in the greens aspect as I am the grain. They are
very nutritious, they say.
