in my class i have to plant and grow grass seeds for 2 weeks. the group
who has the highest yeild of grass wins. i need help with this. can
someone please tell me the best fertilizer and othere chemicails i
should use. we are growing them in class in a inclosed enviorment.


Create a mini greenhouse. Put some regular potting soil in a plastic cup.
Add some water, enough to just make the soil damp. If you feel you need a
bit of fertilizer, just the weakest dose of miracle gro you can.

Put the seeds in, add another shallow layer of soil (about 1/4 inch.) Then
cover the cup with saran wrap. Poke a few holes in it the plastic with a
pencil. Then put near a light source, but not on a window sill.

Instant speedy grow.

And, when the project's done, give it to someone who's got an indoor cat.
They love to eat grass.
