Emmer or Barley?

Ok so some years ago i used straw as mulch and there was some seedlings which i saved to grow. The thing is, however, is that it has a tight husk, 6 rows, long and flat awns, the seedheads lean little or none, and a healthy plant should be over 3 feet in height. Only two grains have a tight husk and is over 3 feet tall, emmer and barley. I cant find good information as to how tall barley is, and the height is definitely right on with emmer. What could it be?

How many rows does emmer have?

3 ft and 6 row would suggest barley.

Well last year, the plants where all 3.5-4 feet tall. I made a mistake of planting it int the same place, so only some reach that height. The HEALTHY one are AT LEAST 3 feet tall. Oh by the way, they have 5 or 6 leaves each tiller, occasionally 4 or 7.

Oh they also take 5-5.5 months to grow.

Triticale?

Ok wait actually thats a possibility. How many rows does triticale have?

I don't know I haven't seen it in a very long time.
But it struck me as similar.

Did it take 5-5.5 months to grow and have a very tough hull?
