Chia Pet Bob Ross with Seed Pack, Decorative Pottery Planter, Easy to Do and Fun to Grow, Novelty Gift, Perfect for Any Occasion

This Chia Pet was both hilarious and nostalgic. Watching Bob Ross’s iconic hair sprout was a fun experience, and it made a great conversation piece. Easy to set up and surprisingly satisfying to grow—perfect gift for fans or collectors.

This is such a great gift! It could work as well for a White Elephant gift as for a really heartfelt surprise for an admirer of Bob Ross and all he stood for. My husband admired Bob because he encouraged people to express themselves joyfully and be proud of what they created, leaving judgment behind.

I recently added the Ice Spice Chia Pet to my garden, and it has quickly become a favorite conversation starter among friends and family. This quirky and adorable chia pet has brought a touch of whimsy to my outdoor space. The packaging was secure, and the chia seeds were easy to apply. Within a week, I started to see sprouts emerging, and it was fascinating to watch the Ice Spice Chia Pet come to life. The chia seeds provided with the kit were of high quality, and the instructions were clear and easy to follow. Maintenance is a breeze; all it requires is a bit of water and sunlight. The chia sprouts are resilient and grow quickly, adding a vibrant green element to the overall aesthetic. I appreciate the durability of the chia pet, as it has weathered the elements without any issues. This Ice Spice Chia Pet has not only added character to my garden but has also brought joy to everyone who sees it. It's a fantastic gift idea for those who appreciate a mix of fun and gardening. I highly recommend the Ice Spice Chia Pet for anyone looking to add a touch of humor to their outdoor space!

This was a fun family project and the kid loved watching it grow. Bob never grew on the top and looked pretty ridiculous but we had some laughs and enjoyed it.

I've always wanted a chia pet and a bob ross chia pet was a dream come true to get on. So I got one for Christmas. It took me a while to start it but as it was snowing a week ago it was the perfect activity to do while your stuck at home. Now there are people who are saying the mix it too watery and wet not gel like. Apparently those people didn't read the tip on the instructions. (As a tip it says to add more seeds wait 10 minutes. And it helps the spread get thicker.) So first when your starting to spread the seeds. Spread it like your spreading icing. Cover the head with plenty of seeds. It says to water it every day. I actually water it one day wait another day then the third day you change the water. Put this head in a deep container. It didn't overflow. But get a deep container. And give it plenty of sunlight. On top of the head take a spray bottle and spray the top of the head. Now i did the beard. So far it looks amazing. So if you want the full look I recommend the hair and the beard. If you follow these instructions it will work. And its exciting to do. Its fun activity to do it takes time but its a plant so be patient and have fun watching the chia pet grow.

Never have done the Chia Pets before but when they came out with Bob Ross we had to try it. My mother was an avid fan of his. We’ve had fun watching it change through the days. It’s nice that the package of seeds are enough for more plantings. It’s a fun & easy indoor gardening project!

Great for gifts or on your mantle his afro starts growing pretty quickly!!!

I've always dreamed of having a chia pet since i saw them when i was little and now that I am over 30 I thought I finally deserved one. I received it as a gift on Christmas and was so eager to grow the iconic Ross Fro. How disappointing it was. All the other reviews are right. You have to water it constantly to keep it filled due to the porous terracotta pot, and gravity means water only stays filled at the bottom where there is no hair. The drip tray was not even close to enough to contain the water seeping out through the pot and it was too much work to constantly lift the heavy pot to empty the tray. I ended up using a dish for drip tray instead. The application is pretty difficult for the hair because it keeps sliding down. The best method I found is to mix the chia seeds with minimal water possible, and lay down the bob on his side (any) to apply on one side with a butter knife. Wait til it's dry, rotate to another side, rinse and repeat. After all that work, your cat smashes it by throwing it to the ground. After buying a second one and trying again, it grows great for about 2 seconds before molding and sliming. I tried putting the chia seeds on his bust instead and that worked much better for 2 seconds longer. I also just ended up putting the Bob figurine on the shelf without the seeds. Basically, the design of the hair/chia being on top of a terracotta pot makes it impossible for you to enjoy this chiapet. I look into his eyes and I no longer see joy in them, only insanity. I'm so sad. Bob would've told me that there are no mistakes in this world, only happy accidents. But he is gone and this was a mistake.

My chia seeds were duds, but the bust of Rose is hilarious, so I don't even mind that she didn't grow a green 'fro.

Gave it as a gift, the birthday girl loved it!

Richard is dead as he was broken :(

This was my first chia pet and I enjoyed watching this product grow. I used instructions from a blog that suggested after the planter and seeds had completely dried, use a spray bottle and a plastic bag to dampen the planter with water to allow the seeds to germinate and stick to the planter to help stop seeds from sliding off. Once the roots were long enough, remove the plastic bag and add water daily to allow the chia seeds to grow. I would also probably use a little less than 2 tsp of chia seeds (maybe 1.5 tsp) for this chia pet, as I had a lot of seeds left after I covered one layer of seeds on the entire head.

The guys at my husbands workplace screwed up the mixture and didn’t put it on evenly but it was an absolute hoot watching her grow hair and all the phases she went through. All in all it was a riot and good laughs.
