Wheatgrass

UPDATED Oct2022: After 8 bags in 8 years, this is still my go-to grass. Kitties love it, the grass germinates reliably even near the end of a bag open for a year, and a little goes a long way. I've finessed my growing technique (deeper, better quality soil in the container than my earlier pics) and the "old" grass now gets plopped down on bare spots in my yard to act as an annual to enrich those spots. This remains the best & most cost-effective way to grow small amounts of wheatgrass regularly at home. Highly Recommended. Orig review follows. -- An easy-to-grow wheatgrass to sate kitty's desire to nosh on greens. On a first try, it grew vigorously after germinating (no additives needed) despite the weak December sunlight, and has stayed green and upright longer than other brands I've tried (which seem to yellow and flop over much more quickly). Both of my 6-year old kitties like fresh grass, but only one of them will eat it indoors. That one seems to enjoy this wheatgrass as much as any other brand I've tried growing, and since the grass isn't yellowing or wilting, she's staying interested. My only concern? I'd be happier to have the seeds to be certified organic. But Todd's "no chemicals" pledge is a solid step in the right direction. The vendor provides a link for growing instructions, but it's straight-forward. The grass will do better in a deeper dish than I used (pictured) since it has long roots (stretched out, as long as the grass is tall). The shallow dish I used worked because I used a heavier top soil mix rather than a lightweight potting soil. Keep that soil moist (but not saturated, pour off excess water). If kitty's dining spot is poorly lit, make sure to return the dish to a well-lit location so the grass can photosynthesize and not turn yellow and wither. Pictured: 8+ days after germinating. For the amount I used, the one pound bag should let me grow at least 6, maybe 8 batches. It's a good value-- much cheaper than most cat-specific brands I've seen from pet companies. And much less packaging this way, too! Almost all of my (indoor-only) cats have enjoyed a little grass now and again, but escorted visits to the front yard are subject to the whims of weather, season, and lawnmowers (and only if you don't use any lawn chemicals). This is a great alternative for all seasons. Recommended.

Todd’s Seeds Cat Grass is hands-down the best I’ve ever used. From the moment I opened the bag, I could tell the seeds were fresh and high-quality. Growing the grass was so easy—just a few days later, we had lush, vibrant wheatgrass ready for my cats to enjoy. See the attached photos. The fact that it’s 100% chemical-free, non-GMO, and pet-safe gives me complete peace of mind. I planted some indoors and some outdoors, and both grew beautifully. My cats are obsessed—they nibble constantly and it’s clearly good for them. The 1-pound bag is a great value, giving me enough seeds for multiple trays (I only use 1 oz. at a time), and everything is sourced from the USA. If you want healthy, safe, and fast-growing cat grass that your pets will actually enjoy, this is the one to get. Highly recommend!

I been buying this cat grass from Todd’s Seeds for about two years, and now it’s a regular part of our spoiled cats’ lifestyle. I plant the seeds it in a little 6" pot with some basic soil, give them a splash of water, and boom — sprouts everywhere in just a few days. I also have a dedicated LED grow light about the pot of grass to stimulate growth. What really impressed me is how nearly every seed seems to sprout. No patchy spots, no sad clumps — just a thick, green jungle of grass our cats can’t get enough of. From their reactions, I’m guessing it’s delicious (at least to cats). And because it grows so fast and reliably, I just rotate pots so they always have fresh greens. Highly recommend this if you’ve got indoor cats who love to nibble. Easy, clean, and cat-approved. 🐾🌿

I recently bought the 1 Pound of Wheatgrass Seeds - Non-GMO Sprouting Seeds, and so far, they’ve been a solid purchase. The seeds are high-quality, easy to sprout, and grow quickly once they start. I’ve been using them to grow wheatgrass for smoothies and juicing, and it’s been great to have a fresh supply at home. The germination rate is pretty good, and the seeds sprout well when followed by the right steps (make sure to soak them first!). The only thing I’d mention is that it takes a little time and patience to get them to full growth, so don’t expect instant results. It’s worth the wait, though, for the fresh, nutrient-packed wheatgrass. Overall, a great option if you’re looking to grow your own wheatgrass for health benefits. Just be prepared for the time it takes to get them going!

Easy to start and grow. Great to be able to grow how much or little you want to

I'm using a grow lamp and the vitamins and minerals that came with said grow lamp to grow these seeds. I purchased organic seed starter with coir. I put them in the grow sponges and then 2 batches in some "to-go" disposable plastic food containers. they have a clear lid. I had sprouts in 2 days and now I'm not sure if it's okay to trim the height of the grass as they have grown over 6" tall and show no signs of stopping.

These are great seeds. They grow quickly everytime I've planted them. The cats love monchin on them.

I was hopeful about this cat grass since it’s advertised as premium, chemical-free, and easy to grow. The planting process itself was simple, and I liked that no special equipment was needed. It’s also reassuring that the seeds are non-GMO and marketed as pet-safe, which is important when growing something for cats. However, the germination rate was disappointing compared to what was advertised. Even after following the instructions carefully, only a portion of the seeds sprouted, and the growth was uneven and sparse. While some grass did grow and my cat was still interested in it, the results didn’t quite live up to the promise of fast, reliable germination in 5–7 days. Overall, it’s usable, but I expected better performance for the price and claims.
