Planting a little lawn in a coworker’s keyboard is a nice way to welcome him back from vacation.
You Will Need
- Two weeks
- A spray bottle filled with water
- Cat-grass seeds
Step 1: Wait for a good time
Find a time when a coworker is going to be out of the office for at least two weeks —maybe when he’s on that romantic honeymoon.
Step 2: Spray their keyboard
Spray his keyboard—or an old one you don’t mind ruining — with water.
Step 3: Sprinkle in seeds
Sprinkle cat-grass seeds in the cracks between the keys.
Cat-grass seeds are available at pet stores and in some grocery stores.
Step 4: Cover
Cover the keyboard with plastic wrap. You want things to get nice and moist.
Step 5: Light it
Place the keyboard by a window, where it will get plenty of sunlight.
Step 6: Enjoy!
Enjoy the look on your coworker’s face when he comes back from his holiday to find several inches of grass growing out of his keyboard!
Chia Pets sprout their “fur” when soaked chia seeds are planted in the grooves of a clay figure.

I just wanted to point out that both actors are the same person. Unless they are identical twins. THAT ADDS A WHOLE NOTHER LEVEL OF MEANING.

I didn't notice 'til you mentioned it. Good catch. The shadow on ";co-worker returning is the give-a-way. Just watch the shadows edge.

I love how he scrunches his face at the seeds at about 0:46.

I'd suggest posting a message on this user's profile page: http://www.howcast.com/users/Lessa_Millet
Since they are the video owner, they should have an idea of which track they used.

Though somewhat humorous, this is EXTEMELY DANGEROUS to do to a keyboard connected to computer. WATER AND ELECTRICITY DO NOT MIX!!!! Even when a computer isn't plugged in, many components hold an electrical charge. Spraying a keyboard that is connected to a computer runs the risk of short circuiting, serious equipment damage and possibly electrocution. I know you guys are in beta, but you better consult an attorney about disclaimers before some a--hole goes out does a ";jackass"; with this.

As this is a process that takes up to two weeks, needs plastic wrap, and lots of sunlight, I'm pretty sure most people would not keep it plugged into a computer.
