    There is one on my channel, either look through my Blender tutorials playlist or search "grass wind" in the search box.

    And one minute later you get a response, that's the most immediate you'll get :D
    Go into edit mode and in the toolbar to the left, click "flip normals" while all the faces are selected.

    Don't bring yourself down! It's always good to try things you suck at, or are afraid of trying. How can you get good at things if you don't give them a go?

    In the 'material' box in the render window of the particle settings tab you'll just need to set it to whatever colour matches the material you want.

    How can we sure which material affect the grass?
    now I can only change the color of the ground

    The reason that the shadows are BLUE is because shadows tend to be the *opposite* color of the light that is shining on the object/scene. - Just a fact for future reference

    Don't worry I saw your comment!
    Sadly I can't really answer your question ; Unity isn't really my strong point. I'm assuming that you would need to replicate the lighting settings within Unity as that will have light settings specifically to be rendered in real-time games. If you want Unity tutorials, I reccomend you head over to CGcookie.com - I know they have Unity tutorials over there. I can't tell you much more than that.
