I planted grass seeds and they’re starting to grow pretty good. These seeds had the blue coating. How long should o wait before putting my tortoises out?
Where did you buy the seeds? If it was at the hardware store, I would't let a tortoise have access to that or feed it to them. They are doing all sorts of weird stuff to grass seed nowadays. It is intended for lawns and to look pretty. They don't intend for people to feed it to their pets.
I only use seed intended for consumption, like pasture seeds for horses and cattle.
Would and OverSeed pasture seed mix work? Cattle, Sheep, and Goats. It produces a green lush pasture. Contains; Tetraploid Annual Ryegrass, Diploid Ryegrass, Orchard grass, White and Red Clover.
If its intended for pasture animals to eat, then it should be fine.
I've done side-by-side growing tests and nothing from any source comes close to outperforming this one:

I am in Ohio, planning to order this. Do you think they'd be ok for Sulcata?Thanks!! I started digging it up this morning. But I got distracted with my toddler running around and then the wild onions in the rest of my yard. And I’m pregnant so I work in batches. I Will go back out this afternoon hopefully.
I did look up and I bought Scott’s Turf Builder Grass Seeds.
