First Look
There was a shipping delay with the EarthAlive product, so it will be in the April 2018 box. There othere cards were coupons and information about their eco-friendly packaging.
The information card lets you know everything in the box.
Fiskars Micro Tip Blades This was the replacement item for the EarthAlive product. I need to get outside and do some pruning, if spring every gets here. It's been so cold here, many of the plants are still in their winter states.
Seed Starting Peat Pellets I am not a gardener, but I have used these! You add water and they expand. You just add seeds to the expanded soil and you have easy to grow plants.
Organic Garden In A Bag This includes everything you need to grow a good luck organic clover garden. You place the coco chips in the bottom, the soil and seeds. There are instructions on the back of that bag and it goes into more detail about how to set up the soil and plant the seeds. It looks easy and currently there are two plants in my house still alive, so I think I can do it.
Mlgardener Seeds Each box comes with new packets of seeds.
I received the following seeds:
- Danvers 126 Carrot
- Dwarf Greek Basil
- Bonze Mignonette Lettuce
- Black Chia
- Costoluto Genoese Tomato
There were several seed markers with the packs, so you can mark where you plant the seed. I plan to get a cute outdoor planter and try to grow a couple of things when it gets warmer.
BONUS “My Saved Seeds” pack and wooden stakes The seed packets hold the seeds you haven't used. You can mark on each packet the date, variety, notes, and who the seeds belong to. There were also 6 wooden stakes to mark your seeds. These are just the cutest things.
Final Thought: I used to think I had a black thumb, but this box is really giving me hope that I can keep plants alive. Hey, those air plants from the last box are still alive! My kids and I are going to make that garden in a bag soon and plant some seeds. If you want to subscribe, use the coupon SBM10 to save 10% on my first box.
