Desert Tortoise Mix

I prepped and pre-fertilized my soil like I always do when planting tortoise mix. Watered each day. Waited. Waited. Waited some more. And after 3 weeks had some thin random scattering of 1/4" tall micro greens. I think that was already in my soil anyway. So, I re-tilled the whole area and planted some organic barley rye wheat seed mix from Amazon. Less than two weeks later I moved my tortoise into a lush grassy area. Sorry Native seeds. Something went wrong with your seed storage. These were DOA.

Unfortunately, the seeds did not grow/sprout.

I love these seeds! More importantly my tortoise loves them!

I have not yet sowed the seeds but I am very excited to have the seeds and to get them growing come spring. The seeds came in good time and look viable.I have also purchased other seeds and they have grown fabulously.

I haven't planted the seeds yet. I have to wait until they are in brumation or the resulting seedlings will be eaten before the plant has a chance to mature. I have bought them before though and the tortoises like the plants.
