Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I received these for Christmas and was excited to use them. The product description doesn't say, but the kit includes 4 seed packets. The herbs included in mine were cilantro, oregano, parsley and chives, though I'm not sure if it is the same for every kit.
My first complaint is that the instructions were a bit off. The kit comes with soil pellets, and instructs you to mix them all up together in a big bowl, using water to help break them down. But using all the pellets made A LOT of dirt--twice as much at least as what I needed to fill the four small pots. Now I have a big bowl of leftover soil and nothing to do with it, when just leaving out half the pellets would have been easy and simple.
My second complaint is that two of the pots have cracked. They are "biodegrable," sure, but does that mean they should already be degrading? I've been using them for two days. My only theory is that in my windowsill it gets warm during the day and chilly at night, so this might just be a temperature change thing. Still, that's lame and I call BS if that's how that works.
Anyway, I still really like the gift and am excited to grow herbs and the container comes with a plastic liner that means I wont have thos ugly brown water/soil stains all over. It's a cute idea and it looks nice. So I give it two stars.
