Excited to find out what I’ve grown!
Interesting so far, great little well designed kit, with everything you need to start off the seeds. Three packets of seeds are included and within each packet you get 3 or 4 different varieties. (11 in total so I think it’s good value for money). The kit also comes with a booklet with easy to follow instructions. The Kalanchoe seeds are so tiny though, it’s hard to see them, so I opened the packet and sprinkled them on, hoping for the best. Apparently the seeds take between 14 days and up to 4 months to germinate, which seems a long time to me. Hopefully they will germinate and the wait will be worthwhile-I’ll update once they have. I think this would make a lovely gift for someone into plants. EDIT: A week later and I have 5 seeds germinated already! (see last pic).

Planted on 29-05-20. Began sprouting after one week.
I was a bit reticent when I first saw the seeds - the smallest (kalanchoe) were like specks of dust and in a transparent plastic packet - best for seeing them I guess but static made it difficult to get them out.I planted the seeds using the soil and vermiculite provided and, as per instructions, popped them on the windowsill in the plastic bags to propagate. I put the peat pots inside some small ceramic plant pots I already owned - I'm not sure how the peat pots alone would stand up to the bottom-up watering method recommended, and I thought they may fall apart. My pots have drainage holes so it will be possible to let the water soak in through the bottom.One week after planting, and the agaves had begun to sprout. After another few days, I can see some tiny kalanchoe and aloe seedlings poking through. Very exciting! So far, 4 out of the 6 pots have germinated. Patience is key - they are extremely tiny still. I have hope for the others.Will update this review if there are future developments. A nice little kit.

Was sceptical
After seeing so many reviews advising the seeds didnt grow, I was sceptical but decided to go ahead anyway.The little instruction guide in the set worked wonders, being new to gardening as a whole this step by step was a godsend. Everything being included in this start up set was also a bonus. Unless you’re a master succulent grower, it’s advisable to follow the instructions and you will see results in a couple of weeks.You will get a lot of seeds in this pack which I would deem great value for money, considering grown succulents from the garden centre can soon mount up. If grown correctly you could have twice the amount!I will definitely be interested in looking through their other kits

We'll wait and see
Easy instructions on how to plant up your seeds but you get three packets of different types of seed and it suggests that you just plant 3 in each pot and save the rest for another planting but this is hilarious considering that one pack only had 3 whole seeds and some fragments, one pack had the teeniest seeds I've ever seen which pretty much amounted to dust so almost impossible to separate out and they were in a plastic bag so they stuck to the sides as well and the third pack was also pretty much broken up bits. I've done my best and planted them and only time will tell if I get any plants. I will update when/if I do.UPDATE : So far in one of them I have three seeds sprouted but in the rest nothing at all and in two of them they went mouldy!!!

Good starter kit. Easy to see results!
The kit is super professional and the instructions come in a multitude of languages. Instructions are clear and after a week of sowing 3 Agave seeds and 3 Aloe seeds, 2 Agave and 1 Aloe have germinated. I have a Bearded Dragon so have been keeping the plants in their seamed plastic bags at the cool side of her enclosure as that is 70-75F which is optimal for the plants. Once they’re ready to be repotted I’ll move them to a windowsill!Only downside is all seeds are packed in 3 bags with different species in the bags which makes it near impossible to tell which species of Agave etc. you’re sowing. Also the price is fairly steep for a starter kit.

Out of date
I purchased this product as a gift and was sad to discover that they are actually out of date by a couple of months. This now means that they won’t germinate and is a waste of money and a gift.

Seeds work
I've been growing them for about a week and a half now. A combination of following the instructions provided and succulent forums I already have germination, two of three mixes have germinated. Will update when/if the third mix does but they can take up to 4 weeks.Very nice beginner kit with everything you need. As long as you have some old plastic lids you won't need to invest in pots until a month or two in.I have some left over seeds for two of the mixes and so hopefully when I am used it it I will be able to grow more. Looking at loads of plants at a very very decent price as long as you are patient!
