Refining --> Threshing?

You've been using the term "Refining" in your cereal updates. Would "Threshing" be a better choice (separating grain from a plant)? Unless you prefer to use a term that generalizes over more than just grains.

Also, maybe move nutrient info to a Planting section of Usage (i.e., usage of seeds), and add info on growth times and an image of growth stages (like in Agriculture)?
