The instructions advised not to put the whole packet of seeds in due to overcrowding, but I let the kids put in the seeds, which they obviously dumped in one place and it’s been totally fine-in fact, it’s lush. A mini tropical getaway for toddlers and parents. 10/10 would recommend.
I normally can't get ANYTHING to grow but these grew within days, as promised! My child was so proud to be a part of something growing and thriving; so cool to see!
The unfortunate, sad part of the story is.. our cat apparently likes Wheatgrass and he knocked the entire container into the sink! It took the better part of an hour to clean and dropping a bunch of rocks down the sink.
Now her plant/terrarium is destroyed and she's heart broken. Tried to salvage it but it's not possible.
So my tips are: it's really fun but keep away from animals! And be careful how much water you use, mine got moldy very fast, even with just a couple sprays everyday.

The seeds didn't take long to grow accurate time frame set in instructions and have started sprouting now.
Great value you for money. Only thing wrong is the spray bottle doesn't work properly but is not an issue.
