She covered the edges of the bathtub with chia seeds soaked in water. Next, she did the sink too by using her hands to spread the gooey chai seeds around the basin. Finally, she took many steps further by spreading chia seeds around the commode. Over seven days, Jessie Jacobson meticulously watered the chia seeds with a bottle of spray and waited to see the results.

Netizens Aghast At Bathroom Covered With Lush Green Sprouts

Interestingly, her entire bathroom turned into a chia wonderland. The seeds sprouted with green saplings. Lush green sprouts grew on her sink, her bathtub and even the toilet. When she started to notice her green theory actually work, she decided to add homemade accessories into the mix. She designed a Shrek headband with chia seeds to complement the theme of her bathroom. And that’s not all, she used it to make fake nails. Jessie Jacobson now calls herself the proud owner of a fully functional geo-spa, where she painstakingly grew the green sprouts herself over a week.

A commenter asked a very poignant question, wondering what would happen when the chia seeds sprout and start rotting.

Well, what do you think about Jessie Jacobson’s chia spa?
