Being native to hot and dry climates, chia has develped this defense mechanism of forming mucus as a way to ensure consistent moisture during germination. In temperate climates chia needs less water than other plants, due to this. The \"mucus\" effect is also what makes it able to stick to terracotta objects. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSeeds per Package:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e4 oz - Approximately 88,400 seeds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1 lb - Approximately 353,000 seeds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e5 lb - Approximately 1,768,000 seeds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e25 lb - Approximately 8,840,000 seeds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c!--split--\u003e"}
