House cats (and pet rabbits and birds) naturally crave and really enjoy eating greens. Satisfy this need by planting our extra-fancy blend of organically grown seeds for fresh rye, oats, barley and wheat greens. Our large bonus packet provides ample seed for 10-12 sowings of fresh greens that grow easily and quickly in pots, both indoors and out. This nutritious blend is tender, sweet and easy to digest, containing easily assimilated vitamins and enzymes that keep your pet healthy and beautiful. Fresh greens are a natural breath freshener and provide beneficial roughage that will aid your pet's digestion, prevent hair balls and deflect them from eating your houseplants.

GROWING INSTRUCTIONS
FOR BEST RESULTS
Fill a 6 inch diameter or larger pot with moistened planting mix. Sprinkle seeds 1/4 inch apart over the surface, cover 1/2 inch deep with mix, and water gently. Keep pot moist but not soggy, and be sure to provide a good light source. The pot of grasses can be kept indoors for pets to graze on at their leisure. Fertilize every 2 weeks using a non-chemical fertilizer, such as fish emulsion.
GROWING NOTES
This generous packet provides more than enough seed for 10 to 12 sowings for consistent fresh greens. The grasses are ready for pets to nibble when the blades are at least a few inches tall, normally in about 10 to 14 days after sowing.
If grasses get too tall and fall over, "mow" them down to 3-4 inches with a pair of scissors. For a constant supply, try sowing 1 pot a week for 2 weeks. Give your pet access to only one pot of grass at a time, and switch pots each week.
When grass does not re-grow vigorously after cutting down and fertilizing, discard and start again with more seeds and soil mix.
DINING IDEAS
Most cats will recognize the grass as a treat right away. To encourage finicky eaters, place the pot beside the kitty's food and spritz it with water. This usually does the trick and cats who newly discover this treat delight in it!
