There is millet, I think it's okay to feed, but then there is also canary seed, hemp, linseed, nigerseed, safflower, buckwheat, sorgho, sunflower, paddy rice, oats, yellow panicum. Did you try to feed some of these plants? They love the grown millet, but I'm afraid to try the rest I've just spread it in a pod and it's growing very nicely, but if some of it is not okay to feed as a plant, I'll only grow the ones that are safe Link to comment

They will love you more Link to comment

Just make sure anything you grow you don't spray with pesticides (I know you won't but putting it out there). In our FAQ we have food links too. Link to comment
