does it handle greens

YES! I load it with kale, carrots, beats, broccoli, cucumbers... Great juicer.

Yes, it does handle greens however, you will want to juice something a little less dense after. I do a handful of greens first and then add 3-4 celery stalks. Adding a juicy vegetable or fruit right after is the best way to extract the juice from the greens. Greens (normally kale or spinach) are always the base in very juice I make. This is an excellent juicer, great investment! It has a lot of power, juices almost anything easily. And it is very easy to clean.

Greens are no problem...we have juiced kale, carrots (not a green but...) parsley, chard and spinach...they are the most common greens used in juicing recipes. Go easy on the chard and parsley. The chard can impart the taste of dirt to your juice, which might I add, is not at all pleasant. Parsley is extremely overpowering and will kill the flavors of anything else in your juice and leave your taste buds in a state of absolute ruin.

Yea, it will do that running at low rpm. It is not super fast as the throat is not large enough to stuff large quantities quickly, but it will not have a problem with Green plant matter.

I would think it would sprout the wheat, but does not grow the greens very well, I would suspect the tray would be better, it has a growing medium for the roots.

It will work on leafy greens with something heavy behind it, like a carrot or something other wise you'll have more green in the grinder. It will juice them though so far I'm satisfied with the product, expected a little bit more from it but it's OK. Only complaint frozen strawberries didn't work very well, there was juice but I had to take the machine apart and clean it. It's excellent for the price range though.

Not sure, we use it for a green house during the summer and it works great.

The slots are narrow so it works best for shorter smaller plants. Greens and lettuces did great. I don't think it's big enough for tomatoes or green beans.

Sorry I can't help you there. My daughter and I both have one and we love it for smoothies and slushy drinks. It makes those as smooth as you want. We never tried greens in it.

Yes, and very well. I have juiced kale, and other leafy greens and it does great.

We have used it for berries, larger sliced fruits and vegitables- not greens.

No, it is not good for leafy greens. You should look into a masticating juicer for that. These types of juicers that have a grinding disk are ideal for firm, hard fruits and vegetables.

Neither do I, sorry. though the label says it does. But don't quote me on that. I would suggest the cutting be as green-stem as possible.

Un Sure. But I personally tested a few juicers and this is the best. It's a masticating juicer. Best for leafy greens etc.

It does handle kale it blends right through it for our smoothies; it gets the pieces very small, not liquid, but drinkable and yummy :)

Sorry, but I don't recall. I was following the advice of John Koler (not sure if spelling is correct) from Growing Your Greens on Youtube. He recommends Azomite highly, and has a lot of good videos on application. Good luck.

Hard to answer the question unless I've owned or operated both which I have not. Using the GreenWorks, however, is very easy and it does the job. More importantly, not only can I use it easily, but my wife can easily control it tilling her flower garden.

Yes if you feed too fast leafy greens or in seriatim leafy material, cucumbers and celery. It's easy not to jam though. You can also jam the feed with too many large hard chunks at once. Short of the Norwalk the Kuvings is awesome. It's also more user friendly than the Norwalk for small batches.
