This is what I found on PetsMart's website:

Grow nutritious, 100% certified organic wheatgrass for your small pet.When grown, wheatgrass is a nutrient-dense natural food containing 16vitamins, 12 minerals, and 18 amino acids. Kit comes with container,growing medium (100% organic core that is harmless to pets if ingested)and 100% certified organic wheat seed--all you will need to do is addwater. Grass grows in 4-5 days. Once grown, clip and feed grass to yoursmall pets. Great for guinea pigs, rabbits, gerbils, and hamsters.


I think a big benefit of growing it would allow your bun to forage forfood. It is good for them, plus, fun to watch
