Composition :
- 1 terracotta bowl, diameter 15 cm, elegantly made in Europe, adding a touch of authenticity and durability to your interior.
- 4 rehydratable coco earth plates for quick and easy cultivation.
- 2 seed packets: nepeta cataria, known for its irresistible euphoric effect on cats, and barley, with its beneficial purgative properties.
Both varieties are extremely easy to grow and take only a few days to germinate.
Growing method:
- Substrate preparation: Place a plate of coco soil in a container and add around 150 ml of lukewarm water. Allow the coir to rehydrate for a few minutes, then mix gently to obtain a homogeneous texture. Transfer the rehydrated soil to the terracotta bowl, making sure it is well aerated.
- Sowing the seeds: Spread the seeds evenly over the surface of the substrate, without burying them deeply. Spray lightly with water to moisten the seeds without soaking the soil.
- Growing conditions: Place in a bright spot, but away from direct sunlight to avoid rapid drying out. Between 18 and 24°C. Keep the substrate moist by spraying a little water every day, but not too much.
- Germination and care: The first shoots appear within 3 to 5 days. When the young shoots reach 5 to 10 cm, your cat can start nibbling them. Renew the crop regularly, alternating seedlings to ensure your cat always has fresh grass.
- Additional tips: If your cat eats the grass quickly, sow several times, staggering the sowing, to avoid a period without growth; for denser regrowth, lightly prune the shoots once they reach 10 cm. Clean the bowl between each crop to prevent the development of mould.
With these tips, your cat can enjoy the benefits of fresh, tasty catnip!
