🌱 Todd’s Seeds Cat Grass – Growing Instructions
✅ What’s Inside:
Todd’s Seeds Cat Grass is 100% chemical-free, non-GMO wheatgrass (Triticum aestivum) – safe for pets and packed with nutrients.
📦 You Will Need:
- Todd’s Seeds Cat Grass seeds – purchase at Todd’s Seeds Catgrass Seeds
- Shallow growing tray or container (with drainage holes recommended)
- Organic potting soil OR seed-starting mix
- Spray bottle or watering can
- Sunny windowsill or grow light
- Plastic wrap (optional for faster germination)
📆 STEP-BY-STEP INSTRUCTIONS:
Step 1: Soak the Seeds (Recommended but Optional)
- Soak seeds in a bowl of cool water for 8 to 12 hours.
- This helps speed up germination and improves overall sprouting success.
- After soaking, drain and rinse the seeds.
Step 2: Prepare the Container
- Fill your container with 1.5–2 inches of moist organic potting soil.
- Gently pat down the soil to even the surface.
- Avoid compacting it too much – roots need room to grow.
Step 3: Sow the Seeds
- Scatter seeds thickly and evenly over the top of the soil.
- You don’t need to bury them. Just press them lightly into the surface.
- Optionally, sprinkle a very light layer (1/8″) of soil on top.
Step 4: Water and Cover (for Germination)
- Mist the seeds with water or use a gentle spray from a watering can.
- Cover the tray with plastic wrap or a humidity dome for the first 2–3 days to retain moisture.
- Place the tray in a warm, dark location (around 65–75°F).
Step 5: Let It Grow
- Once seeds begin to sprout (usually within 2–4 days), remove the cover.
- Move the tray to a bright location — a windowsill with indirect sunlight or under grow lights.
- Keep the soil moist but not soggy by misting or light watering daily.
Step 6: Harvest Time
- Your cat grass will be ready to harvest in 7–10 days, when it’s about 4–6 inches tall.
- Cut with clean scissors just above the soil line.
- Serve fresh to your cat or store harvested grass in a sealed bag in the fridge for up to a week.
🌿 Tips for Success
- Avoid mold: Don’t overwater and ensure good airflow.
- Continuous supply: Sow new trays every 1–2 weeks for an ongoing harvest.
- Outdoor option: In spring/summer, you can grow cat grass outside in pots or garden beds.
