VARIEGATED CAT GRASS (Hordeum vulgare) Bring a touch of the outdoors inside with this bright white and green variety of barley grass. In as little as 4 days (if using a heat mat and grow light) to 2 weeks from sowing, cat grass reaches 6" tall. Organic, so grow in organic medium for a safe alternative to outdoor or indoor plants. Barley is so good for your pets (cats AND dogs AND chickens) ... it has some protein and a lot of vitamins and minerals, not to mention the fiber it provides. Cat grass also can be used like wheatgrass for health-conscious juicers. Grass continues to grow, so keep pots trimmed for a neat and attractive appearance, snipping the tip ends daily into your pet's food. Height: 8-24". 100 Seeds.
GROWING TIPS: Grow 25 seeds at a time or up to 100 seeds in a 4" pot, spread out on the surface of a clay pot that has been pre-soaked in lukewarm water. Then cover lightly with sterilized growing medium, press in firmly and keep away from cold drafts. Keep moist but not wet. As soon as one pot has sprouted, put in a draft-free window to continue growing. When 3"-4" growth has occurred it is ready for your kitty. The best way to maintain your greens and keep your kitty healthy is to clip the tops daily into their food. My dogs love this too!
