......okay, here's the "grass in the bowl" story: five days ago I planted a little cup of oat seeds in potting soil and watered it; kept it in the dark for 4 days and it started to sprout! Now we are to day 5 (see above photo) and I cannot believe what my eyes are seeing! The instructions said to put it in sunlight and keep slightly moist; when it gets a few inches tall, we cut a bit off each day for the house cat, Baby Sister, to eat! Dear hubby put me up a long shelf in the kitchen and a "grow light" above it (for wintering outdoor potted plants) and this little bowl of oat grass must LOVE this light! Now I'm off to show you today's growth..........
