Cat grass
Stock up on seed with confidence, as oat seeds will remain viable for years of kept in a cool, dry, dark spot.
Cat grass/oat is cheap and easy to grow! It'll take about 2 weeks to get it to a good height, but after that, it's a grass eating free-for-all!
Step 1: What you need:
- a small pot to grow in
- organic potting soil
- cat grass seeds
- plastic wrap
- water
Step 2: Planting
Fill your pot with soil, stopping 1-2 inches from the top. Scatter a handful of cat grass seed over the top of this - I like to do one thin, even layer.
Then add a couple of handfuls of soil over the top so the seeds are covered with about 1/4 inch of soil.

Step 3: Water and cover
Water the seeds with 1/2 cup of water or so - you want the soil to be nice and moist.
Once that's done, cover the pot with plastic wrap (not too tightly - you still want a little airflow!) and set in a warm and dark location
