Review: Great kit - I bought this grow kit for my 7th graders seed growing project. The instructions were easy to follow and we were able to complete them with ease, in just a few minutes. The seeds started sprouting in 2 days! The container and soil that came in the kit really held in the moisture that the seeds needed to have a good start. My son was excited to watch the process of the flowers growth. I highly recommend this kit for anyone (especially us folks with a black thumb) that wants to start seeds with ease. Review: Super Convenient for Herbs - This is super handy for growing more basil and mint. Once the seedlings are big enough, you can easily tear off the biodegradable pots and transplant them. I really like it because it holds moisture well and works great overall. ## Features - The Perfect Home to Start Your Garden! No Glues or Binders!

The instructions were easy to follow and we were able to complete them with ease, in just a few minutes. The seeds started sprouting in 2 days! The container and soil that came in the kit really held in the moisture that the seeds needed to have a good start. My son was excited to watch the process of the flowers growth. I highly recommend this kit for anyone (especially us folks with a black thumb) that wants to start seeds with ease. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Super Convenient for Herbs *by K***K on October 20, 2025* This is super handy for growing more basil and mint. Once the seedlings are big enough, you can easily tear off the biodegradable pots and transplant them. I really like it because it holds moisture well and works great overall. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Cute little seed starters *by E***B on May 18, 2025* These are really tiny as indicated by the measurements in the description so you don't need much soil if working on a larger project with lots of seedlings. I like that they are peat free and will break down in the soil. I wasn't able to see the finished product though since they were used by students and taken home to finish growing or transplant into a new container or outdoors. Not a bad purchase for what I needed. ## Frequently Bought Together - Back to the Roots 12-Cell Greenhouse Germination Kit | Seed Starting Tray with Pots & Vented Lid for Indoor Gardening - Back to the Roots Organic Seed Starting, Compressed Block expands to 12 Quarts, Made for Herbs, Veggies, Flowers --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/511088355-back-to-the-roots-12-cell-greenhouse-germination-kit-seed](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/511088355-back-to-the-roots-12-cell-greenhouse-germination-kit-seed) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-04-24*
