how my attempts are going with starting a starter from ground wheat berries 7/09/2011and trying to sprout flour from wheat berries

My ground wheat berry starter is becoming more active.  I don’t know when it will be ready or if it will ever be able to leaven a pizza with it, but it does smell good.  My wheat berries I was trying to sprout kept smelling so bad (think vomit), so I finally threw them away yesterday.  I washed some more wheat berries and put them into another clean Mason jar.  I think I was reading the instructions wrong on how to start to sprout wheat berries.  I kept placing water in the Mason jar with the wheat berries and rinsing them daily.  After I read over the instructions again, I think where I was making the mistake was I only needed to soak the wheat berries for 12 hrs., then rinse everyday and return them to a dark place.  I started to try and sprout another batch of wheat berries last evening.
