NECA Nightmare Before Christmas Jack Skellington Chia Pet

I planted the seeds last Wednesday and tiny green shoots are already poking through Jack's head. The handmade planter really captures his expression perfectly, and watching the chia grow looks like his wild hair coming to life.

The instructions said full growth in 1-2 weeks and it honestly hit that timeline dead on—the chia sprouts make his head look hilariously wild. The planter itself is solid and hand-painted, so even before it grows it's a fun desk piece that gets a lot of comments.

I wasn’t sure a Chia Pet could look this good, but Jack’s planter is surprisingly detailed. The seeds sprouted in about 4 days, and the chia “hair” gave him that perfect creepy-cute vibe. Definitely a fun little desk buddy.
