Back to the Roots 12-Cell Greenhouse Germination Kit | Includes Biodegradable Pots & Vented Greenhouse Lid | Made from 75% Recycled Plastic

this item is a bit cheesy would not buy again

Perfect for my little project!

Is really flimsy so have handle carely but does the job of growing plants

We're taking gardening seriously this coming year, which is not something we've done recently. That means we need to be doing things like getting plants started inside, which is why I ordered this kit.One of the things I've really liked about all the Back to the Roots products I've owned previously is that they are educational. There is plenty of information for me to learn about what the kit involves, and there is material I can use with my kids as well. This product does contain some of the "why" but there is not much. The directions/learning are all on the back of the box, and all of the instructions assume you also have the Back to the Roots Seeds & Seed Starting Mix. I do not have that kit, so I am using soil and seeds I already have.The kit is quite basic, but it does what it is supposed to. It comes with the plantable tray inside the green germination tray, which sits inside the greenhouse lid, so it does not take up a lot of space. I do think that if you are careful with the greenhouse part, this could be reused a few times.I like this for getting some of the fussier plants started, but in general I don't love this kit.

Really good product! Works great! Easy to transfer to pots!

This germination kit is pretty cheap, and will only be a 1-time use. It’s not as described and the plastic is pretty flimsy and thin. I mainly ordered it because the cell tray is organic and plantable. I will probably just use one of my organic plastic egg cartons instead, or look for a better quality kit. The top cover doesn’t fit very well and is hard to snap on without breaking it. I’m disappointed in this kit as I have some organic herbs to start germinating. I would not recommend this kit.

Piece of crap! The plastic would not even hold the treys inside. It just fell over spilling everything. I was so hopeful. Very disappointed. Lost 12 seeds that i worked so hard to germinate! All because of cheap plastic. I knew i should have gone for a better product but I figured give it a try. Never again!

I'm always curious about how well seed starter greenhouses work. I have gone through many store bought ones over the years, none of them have lasted as claimed. I ended up just making my own out of Dixie cups, and the plastic to-go boxes from restaurants. So when this showed up, I was naturally curious if it will hold up as claimed.I found that the plastic tray is not as thick as the ones I have bought in the store, knowing how long they lasted, I do not expect this to last to long. The top is thin as well. I do see it working for at least one maybe two uses. It only holds the 12 seed pots. I have not been able to find replacements. So you may have to buy a full size one and cut it down to size, or go wild and not use any at all. It would work great for a school project for kids learning about how things grow, or a fun little project to do with your kids or grandchildren to get them interested in gardening.
