Features This kit features 72 self watering seed
starting cells that each include a seed starting mixture pellet that is
all housed in a neat and clean mini-greenhouse.
Instructions The included instructions were okay.  They
told how to get the system set up and started but failed to include some
important information.  A good example is it does not tell how
important it is to keep the pellets facing up and down when expanding
them, if they are not it will be next to impossible to get the mixture to
fill out correctly.
Ease Of Use I found the kit to be quite easy to use, other
than a few issues with the pellets facing the wrong direction.  Once
the seeds are planted the Burpee Green House Kit is basically set it and
forget it until the seed start to germinate.  
Effectiveness Most of the seeds germinated with in the first
3 days, a few took an extra day or two after.  I found that once the
seeds germinated that is when the kit starts to loose a little bit of its
luster for me.  There is not very much space for root development and
seedlings were sometimes difficult to remove from the cells.
Comments The single largest complaint I have about this
system is the construction of the cells.  They are very thin and
crack easy.  If Burpee makes this system with a little thicker, more
sturdy plastic they will have a real winner on their hands!
Overall Rating 3.5 out of 5
