Great idea – if they last,
We got these cartridges along with our fountain and set the whole thing up at once. Very nice looking, very easy to attach and a very clever design overall.
We didn’t have the problem with the attachments coming off like some other reviewers, it seemed to clip on pretty firmly, but being made of plastic I can see how results may vary.
The only problem I’ve noticed with these is that the cats seem to tear the grass apart before it has a chance to really grow. Because of this I would recommend allowing the grass to start growing in a water bowl or something out of kitties reach before attaching it to their water dish.
There’s no disputing the fact that our cats (well the closet vegetarian at least) love the grass, but it’s just turned into a kind of shredded mess of green chunks all over the place rather than the nice growth that you see in the picture.
I’ll definitely keep getting them for the cats, it’s helped save some of our other house plants fram the terrible jaws of our vegetarian cat. But I think some experimentation and a bit more care is necessary to get the desired results out of these things.

|Pretty cool add on,
I bought this almost 2 weeks ago. it took a couple of days for the seeds to sprout but when they did it didnt take long for the grass to grow very tall. A couple of things i noticed though. First when the grass was tall enough my cat pulled out the seed pod and i found it on the ground. I dont know if i didnt push it down far enough so that it clipped but she did it a couple of times. Anyways i have pushed it down with the roots and it is holding. The next day i found a trail of red ants going for it. I guess wheat grass is just as appealing to bugs as it is to cats!. I cleaned the area with soap and moved the dish but im going to pay extra attention for bugs. The other thing is that you will be pulling out floating grass every now and then. All in all though my cat loves it which was the reason why i got it. Whenever i see her go by she munches on it and i think it should last hopefully another week. If the bugs find it again i might move it to the 2nd floor or just buy potted wheat grass. Not bad though and depending on how it ends up i might by it again.

|Nice idea, but…,
This did grow some blades of grass on the side of the water dish, but the water became foamy and needed to be totally changed more frequently. I think that the idea of having the Drinkwell Pet Fountain is to encourage your cat to drink, but my cat wasn’t drinking as often when the foam started to appear. As other reviewers have stated, the sides of the bowl get slimy as well. The grass also grows slowly and needs a light source (something I didn’t consider), which also would encourage algae to grow in your water dish. There aren’t a lot of seeds in the pods, so you’re really better off with a separate pot of grass for your cat than sticking it into his water dish – plus for the cost of the pods, you probably could buy a whole pot of grass instead of just a couple dozen strands of grass (and you don’t have to wait for the grass to grow).

|This is the best product for your garden,
I have been using Grass B Gone in and around my flower beds for years. What a time saver! The grass dies and the flowers bloom on. For some reason I have not been able to find it in stock in town, and I see that the shipping from Amazon is 1-3 months. Hmmm- I might not need it then, but I’ll order anyway for next year. Normally, I use organic products and no herbicides, but this is so great that I have to make an exception.

|I didn’t believe it would work!,
I bought a home with gardens that had been totally neglected for years. The grass was so bad, I thought I would have to tear out all the ground cover and perennials. Fortunately one of my new neighbors suggested I try Grass-B-Gon. I bought one bottle of this product, to try. I picked an area where the grass was especially bad. I was astounded at how nicely this cleaned up my ground cover. I went to buy more, and could not find it ANYWHERE! The area where I used this product is grass free. I wish I could say the same for the rest of my gardens! I was thrilled to find this product is once again available!

|Finally – no more pulling grass in flower beds.,
My “old” knees and back are making it increasingly difficult to pull grass in my flower beds, but I love my daylillies, dahlias, impatients and petunias. I called the County Extension Agent for a solution and he recommended Grass-B-Gone. I looked at the local big-box garden supply and was not able to find the product. I was very surprised that Amazon had this product listed as available. I ordered the package of 6 because it was cheaper this way. It was delivered promptly and in good condition. I love it and it has performed as advertized, kills the grass, with no visible harm to other plants. The only problem I have with it is that I had so much to spray, the hand and wrist got tired of the trigger sprayer.
