  • Bonsai!!!
Excellent starter kit! Planted all four trees, and the seeds are already sprouting. It came with a detailed instruction booklet and couldn’t have been easier. Can’t wait to start trimming my own bonsai and sculpting!

  • Great kit, 4 beautiful species, no stratificattion needed. Would recommend.
The kit contains everything you need to start bonsai trees. I do recommend getting a bigger pot and replacing the peat soil with akadama soil after the seeds germinated. In my experience, the Picea Abies seeds have the low germination success (1 out of 4 seeds) and Jacaranda Mimosifolia (2 of 6 seeds). The Jacaranda Mimosifolia takes a long time to germinate so be patient with that one. Pinus Arista and Delonix Regia were able to germinate successfully and rapidly although scarification is recommended for Delonix Regia since its shell is extremely hard and waterproof. NONE OF THE SEEDS REQUIRES STRATIFICATION PROCESS. :D Don't expect immediate results and beautiful trees since these are seeds and requires years to grow before training. Overall, a good and well-priced kit for a beautiful ancient art. Update: 3 months All the trees are growing nicely. One of the Delonix died, the other is starting to die. Found out they are really sensitive to water and temperature so do not over water it/leave in extreme temps. (The leaves open and close in relation to environmental condition) This has happened before but it came back. I DO NOT RECOMMEND THE PEAT SOIL FOR THIS TREE. The Jacaranda Mimosifolia starts off slow but began to grow really rapidly; main trunk is starting to show signs of barks and hardening. The remaining pine-like trees are still alive but grows really really slowly, not much noticable growth since one month in. ... show more

  • Five-star experience but goal not achieved
-Rocky Mountain Pine and Norway Spruce are not trees for beginners, they germinate fast and almost all but they are plants that do not resist hot climates well and grow very slowly, in 2 months they have not grown more than 5 cm, during that time the wind or animals are easily killed. -Blue Jacaranda did not germinate and the seeds disintegrated after days of water. -Royal Poinciana is fast growing and the strongest of all the plants that comes with the kit, I think it is the most suitable for beginners. -The information on each species is poor, it does not recommend substrates, aftercare, methods to speed up growth. -If you want a quick bonsai you can only achieve it with Royal Poinciana, the rest of the plants may be 10 CM if you are lucky 2 years later. -The experience was very good, I relived old times that I did not remember. ... show more

  • Great kit
This kit is pretty good. I have 6 separate buds so far, 5 of the Pinus Aristata and 1 Picea Aries and it has only been 1.5 weeks since planting. The sellers are also very nice and email you asking you if you need help with anything. Unlike most plant growing kits this kit did not look like it was old and had been sitting on a shelf for a long time. The only problem with the kit is I think for a beginner the instruction booklet is not detailed enough. I would recommend to the sellers that you upload videos on youtube of each step of the sowing process. This will give you more income(youtube ads), help your customers out, and make your product better, resulting in more sales too. Specifically these are tips I have for others: 1) Careful when opening the seed vials, the lids pop open rather forcefully (as in don't let your seeds go flying lol) 2) Read the instructions carefully. They seem to be the same for every seed but they actually aren't and I noticed one of the differences a bit too late (for the really big species you are supposed to cut the tip off before soaking it says) 3) DEFINITELY watch a video before expanding your first peat disk. I completely destroyed one because I did not totally understand what I was supposed to do based on the instruction booklet description. 4) The planting pots are made of I think peat themselves and so don't let them get too wet or they will just crumble apart (happened to my first pot along with it's peat lol) 5) Do not over-water. I was watering daily and noticed those little white fungus patches appearing which indicates over watering and got a couple of ants around so I am now watering every 1.5-2 days when the soil feels fairly dry. So, all in all, the kit seems to be a great product but just remember not to rush too much into it or you might ruin things early on. The one big downside of the kit is they don't offer extra peat or pots so if you miss up with that stuff at all you'd have to go buy more. ... show more
