    Customer Reviews

    Overall rating: 5.0 / 5 from 4 reviews.

    Approx 30 seeds in the packet and nearly all are coming up within 5 days. I started them in some miracle grow seed starter mix in 4 inch plastic pots with rice hulls at the bottom for drainage. Barely covered the seeds with soil, and topped the pots off with more rice hulls to prevent the dirt from moving around during watering. Left them outside for germination. 5 days later 99% of the seeds have 2 true leaves, I suspect they will all be ready to transplant in a few weeks. Incredibly pleased with all my seeds from Eden Brothers.
