Good quiz. I only have been eating proso and the germ is lighter color and hulled seed more round and whitish yellow. No samples are pearl or finger. My guess is that the left and center are two varieties of foxtail and the right (blurry sample) is smaller seed and likely little millet. Thanks for the opportunity....Gary Wietgrefe
