I take different colors of field grass, hold them by a bunch at one end, and cut with sissors. I cut into different lengths in an upward direction, tapering off the bunch. Let it all fall into a plastic container. I gather it back in smaller bunches and plant it into a wet layer of dark earth colored celluclay (with water-based super glue and fine sand added to the mix). Let it sit for a bit, then use a toothpick to stand it up the way you like it. If you want it less even than that, come back to it a couple of days later with the sissors again, and hack away at it. It takes a while to cover a large area, but I'm pleased with the results. Good luck and have fun, Steve
