Wow this product was easy to grow. I just filled a shallow container with some soil spread the seeds out on top covered the seeds with a little more soil and watered thoroughly but not enough to make it swampy. and these seeds took off! In just a few days I had 1 inch spoutings everywhere. In a couple more days they were around 4 inches. By the 10th day they were almost fully grown. The cats I grew this for thoroughly enjoy it. Heck I had to numerously protect the sproutings from the cats it was just so enticing to them. Just remember to keep the soil moist and not to let it dry out or the grass will wilt and fall over. But not to worry watering it should bring it back in a day or two.

This product exceded my exspectation. i have never really been able to grow much, i have killed countless plants, and many others never even grew. so i was exspecting a 50% chance they wouldnt grow. so imagine my surprise when the secound day they were already sprouting. My 3 cats love them, wich was surprising becuase only one had been eating my house plants. Althugh he sometimes will nibble on my other plants he sems to not enjoy it as much and mostly sticks to the cat grass. i would recomend this to anyone with cats why wants to protect the few plants they still have alive. It also has been fun for kids to watch and participate in planting the seeds and watching the cats enjoy them.

For the price I bought 10 packets to stock up. Big mistake. They all expire in 3 months! I planted half a packet and hardly any seeds sprouted. A big disappointment and a waste of my money. I would love to exchange the dead seed packets for some that may sprout with a better expiration date.
