(100% Non-GMO, Heirloom)
Shop the highest quality Oats seeds and take control of your morning bowl. When it comes to nutrition and ease of use, Oats are the "Homestead Essential." Unlike traditional oats that require massive machinery to de-hull, these heirloom seeds naturally lose their hulls during harvest. At The Seed Guy, we believe we aren't just selling seeds; we are planting a connection to our ancestors, the golden beauty of a homegrown harvest waving in the wind, and the security of a self-sufficient pantry.
In the garden, Oats are a beautiful, cool-season crop that produces elegant, drooping seed heads. This variety is the premier choice for anyone who wants to "get your bake on"—providing a nutrient-dense grain that is world-class for fresh cookies, breads, and morning porridge. It is a fantastic companion plant for peas, as the oats provide a natural structure for the peas to climb. At The Seed Guy, our seeds are tested for elite germination, ensuring you get upright stalks that deliver a "Prize-Winning Harvest" of the freshest oats you’ve ever tasted.

Oats Planting Instructions:
1. When to Plant: Oats love the cool weather! Sow as early as the soil can be worked in the spring.
2. Preparation: Select a sunny spot with well-draining soil. Oats aren't overly demanding, but they do best in a clean, weed-free seedbed.
3. Sowing: Sow seeds 1 inch deep. You can plant in rows or "broadcast" the seeds for a more traditional field look.
4. Care: Once the oats are 6 inches tall, they are very competitive against weeds. Ensure they get consistent water while the heads are forming.
5. Pests and Diseases: Protect your ripening crop from birds! Harvest when the seeds are dry and hard, and the stalks have turned a golden straw color.
