Dough from wheat and spelt – separating challah

Question

If I have dough weighing 2.4 kg, composed of half spelt flour and half wheat flour, do I need to separate challah?

Answer

Shalom u’veracha 

One separates challah with a blessing, since this is a mixed dough and not two separate doughs of two different species.
