These natural beads are the seeds of a grain plant, much like a small, skinny corn, or a really robust rye. Job Tears most likely originated in India and were originally grown as a grain plant. These natural seeds have been used as a bead since at least 2,000 BC. Job tears have long been used in making rosaries and African shaker gourds.

Job Tears are surprisingly easy to grow. A grain plant, like a skinny corn or a robust rye grass, they grow 30-36" high. Drought tolerant and requiring little in the way of nutrients, I've found that it's best not to grow these natural beads in a very fertile vegetable garden space, and that they don't need very much water or looking after. I grow my Job Tears in the little strip of ground between my driveway and the neighbor's! Here's a step-by-step tutorial I wrote for how to grow these natural beads.
I've purchased Job Tears seeds from a bead supplier and they were terrible! All white, cracking, and even the shape was substandard compared to firm, rounded Job Tears seeds I grow in my own garden. Like with so many things, there's nothing like home grown, and once you hold your first handful of home-grown Job Tears seeds, you'll never go back!
