Default Nibble Grass?

Found this on Zooplus, but have a couple of questions! Great deals on rodent food at zooplus: Grow your own Rodent Grass

1) Is it ok for hamsters?
2) How do you grow it?
3) Once it's grown do you put the whole thing in the cage or just cut bits off?
4) Does it regrow? Like you cut it and it grows back or not?

1) One of the reviewers has used this for a hamster. I think it would be safe though. There's also some photos of hamsters eating it.
2) I'm sure it comes with instructions. I think you just sprinkle seeds over a pot or tray. I think it comes with the soil stuff it grows on. I would water it a couple of times and leave it on a windowsill.
3) Maybe try it out at playtime or in a playpen and see Sweep's reaction. If he's not too bothered, it would be fine in the cage. If he goes crazy for it, give it as a treat.
4) No idea! Maybe test it out for us .

Loads of people have used it for hams & it's perfectly safe.
It comes as grains mixed with the substrate & you just put it in the container & water it.
It will keep growing for a while if Sweep just nibbles the tops off, I find my hams will dig the grains out given half a chance.
You can either put the whole thing in the cage or cut pieces off, if you put it in the cage I wouldn't leave it in for long though.
