Late reply but. Grass doesn't live forever.
Also it really likes sunlight. It doesn't grow well in shade. If you ever notice outside it doesn't grow well in shaded areas.
Also needs watered.
I cover mine with plastic wrap to help keep it hydrated.
But again. It doesn't live forever. So don't expect to keep it alive forever like a house plant .
Also cat grass is wheat grass.
Hella cheap to buy wheat grass seed and it turns into grass in about a week.
I grow my own.
I'll let you know if I ever figure it out
Are you tray watering ever other day and giving it lots of light?
It gets plenty of water, but more light isn't an option.
You can supplement light with growing lights. Grass requires both moisture and light to be successful.
I tried that last winter. It made no difference. I can grow indoor plants, just not grass for some reason. If I could persuade them to nibble on phalenopsis orchids, I wouldn't need the grass.
Are you letting the substrate fully dry between waterings? It’s really easy to overwater and get fungal issues.
It doesn't live long enough for that.
That’ll be your culprit then.
There's a really neat YouTube channel, Kill This Plant who explains a lot of indoor plant stuff
~~He~~A different YouTuber had a video about buying potted basil from a grocery store, and how they are always overcrowded to make them look fuller to sell better
I've been growing indoor plants for decades. It's just cat grass that doesn't seem to work for me. Heck, I even got one of those grocery store orchids to bloom again every winter.
No. My in-house grass dies under two weeks.
