Pure rubbish.
Where do I start?Directions were awful, did not make any sense to what was inside the box.When you sit down to create the terrarium the first direction is you have to put some of the seats in the fridge and wait six weeks. So put it all away again.The amount of seeds included is ridiculous. They are the size of pin head, the sharp part of a pin head and your told to place them 1/8” apart! Ha! (Those are the seeds in the photo) About 5 seeds were given and you couldn’t even see if or where they landed anywhere. We could have inhaled them for all I know!This had the potential for being a great product but it’s been put together too cheaply. If anything grows I’ll be amazed. I’ll update after the 3 months it’s meant to take to see life.

cool if you commit
If you are buying for a young one who doesn’t have patience… not for you.The time line from start to growth will take a few months.In this time, if you are a busy person you may forget until you stumble across the box and then realize you still have seeds in your refrigerator.Your child or gift recipient has most likely forgotten all about it (just as much as you).I must say, if you’re gifting this you will win!The parents will most likely have more clutter and a random sack of dirt in their fridge.

You need to wait 2 years before giving up on the seeds sprouting
There's a couple of white lies in the instructions of the kit such as the seeds sprouting after a week. That time is the earliest it will sprout and the seeds will take around 1 month or more to sprout or even more time depending on the species. My Venus fly trap seeds have sprouted about a month and a half after sowing them. The sundews are taking more time and the pitcher plants need to have 6-8 weeks in a refrigerator before being able to germinate/sprout. don't expect this to be a plant that quickly grows. Many carnivorous plants take a long time to grow or even sprout. The terrarium holds humidity better than I had originally expected. For these plants you need to use distilled water/water with less than 10 tds. Minerals will kill these types of plants. Remember to put these in a plant w/ plenty of light and a temperature of 65-80F, these plants do not like the cold except the pitcher plants (but even then its best not to expose them to the cold until they are bigger). I wish that there were more versions of this but w/ different seeds such as butterworts, pinguiculas or nepenthes. That would be fun to try to grow from seed. Do not add fertilizer to these plants that will kill them. These plants originate from bogs that do not have many minerals in the soil. The seedlings in the image are venus fly traps at about a week old. I never had to water this terrarium in the past 7 weeks. I had gotten the moss and little shiny rocks w/ the dinosaur toy, I gave them to my little sister.update feb, 7: they are now showing traps now that they are about a month old, they will take a while to grow into flytraps that can catch flies. The sundews and pitcher plants still have not sprouted
