Gardenia Love
I live at 9000’ above sea level in the Rockies and I confess, I have struggled to care for the plants I love… but this gal… She’s so healthy and beautiful and I am happy to report that she is adapting to her surroundings brilliantly! I am on a budget but I will definitely be ordering more products from this seller!Thanks for the lovely addition to my greenhouse!

Save your money and DIY this yourself for basically free!
I set mine own DIY up before even seeing this was a thing lol. I highly suggest after reading all the bad reviews on these to just do it yourself! Mine are doing great now! The wilting stopped as soon as I made a cover out of a 2L bottle for them. My plants are now almost as tall as the bottle covers so I'll be transplanting all but one plant per container. I also started using gallon apple juice containers and 3.75" net pots cause those fit perfectly in the gallon and half gallon pickle jars. I just put a net pot upside-down on top of the apple juice container then trace around it with a marker then I use a razor blade and cut the top off the apple juice container so the net pots fit right inside. They work great! Plus it's food grade plastic so no need to worry there. They should last for years and are basically all free. For seeds I just take seeds out of store bought items which are also basically free! Save yourself a ton of money and just buy net pots and DIY. The gallon and half gallon pickle jars and apple juice containers I'm using also won't tip over nearly as easily! I did buy both of these items the tomatoes and peppers from Amazon only to be disappointed by the size of the jars and quality of the seeds. Sure they are bigger than normal Mason jars but so far the seeds provided haven't been producing anything but one plant out of the 10+ seeds I planted and I know my DIY aquaponics/ hydroponic system is obviously doing much better than just the soil like these are. So I say add some fish in the bottom and let your plants thrive! Obviously don't use any kind of growing chemicals if using fish! I'm using a bunch of Yellow Tiger Endlers as I have a huge abundance of them in my 8 aquariums I have going so just threw about 4 fish in each gallon container. I came up with the idea from my old Betta container I made about 20 years ago with the Peace Lilly on top of a vase with a Betta in the bottom back in the day when Citibank would allow those types of things on your desk at work lol. So far I'm extremely happy about the success I've been having with all my "free" grow your own food ideas over these store bought ones since I'm having much better luck with my DIY solutions. Not only with the quality of the seeds but also the size of the containers. Mine are bigger and won't tip over as easily along with won't have as many creepy crawly bugs cause I'm not using nearly as much soil and in some cases no soil at all now that I bought expanded clay balls also from Amazon. Oh and all the water I'm using on all my plants comes from my fish tanks. Hence the reason the front apple juice container water looks a little dark. I use a lot of botanicals in my tanks so the water always looks tinted yellow and I actually cleaned the bottom of one of my tanks while getting water for my new apple juice grow containers. Figured all the fish poo would be very beneficial to the plants so why waste good fertilizer!

Back to the Roots is a lovely company.
The Back to the Roots people are wonderful. When this kit first arrived it was missing the seeds and instructions. The lovely people at Back to the Roots, not only sent me the missing seeds, which was really all I expected or hoped for, they actually sent me a whole new kit. It was really more than they needed to do and I am very grateful.

It Lives
Besides humans and pets, I am truly terrible at keeping things alive, especially when it doesn't speak, whine or bark. Despite my forgetting to water it and leaving it outside for days in frost-ridden temperatures, this plant continues to grow and thrive. I am absolutely astounded! Highly suggested to all the utterly awful gardeners out there.

All I get is THREE seeds?
So... I got two of these pepper growing kits for myself and my sister (and my two t) for Christmas. I'm not sure if she attempted hers yet. I followed the directions (it was an easy process), got everything ready for planting, and then opened up the seed package very carefully, considering I wasn't sure what size seeds were in there, and I didn't want to lose any. I received literally THREE seeds in my packet. I didn't drop them, or miss them in the packet anywhere... I expected there to be at least 10 seeds, in case some didn't come up, but three? I was less than hopeful that any of them would germinate. Luckily, I had one little fighter- the photo shows him about a week or so after popping up. I'll be doing my best with this little guy, especially if I keep him in the glass jar with no drainage. Otherwise I have to be super-careful and try to transplant him without injuring his root system. I'll update later if he survives or not!😨 Also, if my sister's tried hers yet! If I had actually received something like 10 or so seeds, I would've given this product more stars. I wanted to!UPDATE: My little seedling grew! He's about 12" tall give or take, and the peppers are growing in like crazy! My sister's is also growing like crazy. Both plants are doing great. I can't wait until they're ready to harvest! Yum!!! Gets another star for LIVING, lol.

Bad seeds.
The seeds looked old, and not a single one sprouted. I am not an expert, but also FAR from being a novice. I bought this for my apartment balcony, after missing my garden when I moved out of my house. I expected them to sprout pretty quickly but after 10 days got nothing. I then tried some of my own seeds (which were a couple of years old) and they were coming up after only two days. This item was a good idea, but needed better quality seeds.

Waste of money
I have had these peppers for two months now and they sprouted to an inch tall, I culled all but 1 plants as per the direction. As of now exactly 2 months to the day it is still only an inch tall. I have even added Miracle grow fertilizer to aid in its growth. I grow peppers every year and this is the absolute worst way I have ever tried to germinate and grow peppers.DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY!!If I could give it 0 stars I would!!
