There's nothing quite as satisfying as the taste of fresh vegetables or the smell of flowers you've grown from seed in your own garden. Now you can start young plants off right with the Jiffy Easy Grow greenhouse and lower the chances that you'll be disappointed by seeds that fail to germinate. This lightweight plastic planting tray includes an 11-by-22-inch tray with 72 small pop-out cells, each perfect for germinating three to five seeds. Simply fill the cells with soil and place them in the handy base tray. Then plant your seeds, cover the tray with the reusable clear plastic greenhouse dome to create the proper humidity level, and watch them grow. When your seedlings are well rooted, simply pop the individual plants from the container, and they're ready for replanting in a larger pot or in your garden.

5.0 out of 5 stars Do yourself a favor and order at least TWO April 10, 2012

Works great, I needed this to start impatiens seeds from Burpee -- they're so small they resemble grains of sand, you actually dip a toothpick in water and use the surface tension to pick up and deposit each seed -- THAT'S SMALL. Keep the transparent lid on until the seeds have mostly sprouted, then remove the lid and slowly "harden off" the plants by exposing them to the outdoors and eventually sunlight over time.

I wish I'd ordered two or more of these. It's much, much cheaper to start flowers from seed on your own versus buying them at the local Home Depot or nursery. I already ordered more impatiens and I have some vincas I want to get started for the warmer months. Buy some decent potting mix or seed starting mix, or if you're really crunchy granola run some garden soil through your oven @ about 350 degrees for an hour to sterilize it. I like to add some perlite to soil mixes. I also like to water the soil BEFORE THE SEEDS ARE SOWN with Miracle Gro. The transparent dome will maintain humidity while the seeds are sprouting. I'd use a decent plant mister (Couldn't insert product link, URL is http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0010H748S/ref=oh_o00_s00_i00_details) to keep the seedlings content.

Great product. I really wish I'd ordered two or three of them.

Helps to get your urban farm started inside when it is too cold outside.
Good for areas with a short growing season.
