Very nice product and very effective. Whatever seeds I put in the boxes were germinated in a matter of days.
The combination of the heating mat along with the LED lights on top and the closed canopy did the work very very well.
I would definitely recommend
The Seed Starter Tray with Grow Light is great for starting seeds indoors. It’s easy to use and promotes healthy growth, but the light may not be strong enough for all plants. Overall, it’s a handy tool for indoor gardening.
This is a great purchase. Great for a small set up. Lights have a built in timer. Kids vent well enough to prevent excessive moisture buildup. The heat mat is ideal for pepper seeds. I also used it for eggplant seeds. Nice even temperature for seed starting. The red/blue light combo provided just the right light necessary and seedlings did not stretch. I’m a retired horticulture professional and bought this in a lark to see if was effective. This set up worked surprisingly well. I purchased another brand at the same time to compare. This was the better of them, by far.
Bought this for my nephews birthday . I have opened it , to check that it’s all OK. Fitted the vent and lighting discs into the clear domes . Tested the USB powered L.E.D’s. Set timer . Each time duration has a different colour on the in-line control and lights can be dimmed , all nice and easy . Tried the heater mat which is mains powered . The 3 pin plug is very tight to pull out of socket , but not a real problem, and works well . The trays and cover domes seem sturdy enough . Comes with small Dibber and Widger tools and labels . The little instruction manual is very good . I’m impressed with this nice kit , happy to give it .
Also super fast delivery from Amazo
I have been reluctant to purchase one of these for years, but I have struggled last couple of years with getting seeds to grow. So this year after failing on quite a few seeds I purchased one, and within days the seeds were coming up.
It is good that you get both a heat mat and light grow trays, as you can bring things on at different stages.
I might purchase another one at some point in future.
Great product at a great price. It does exactly what you want it to do. My seedlings are healthy and took no time to sprout. So much so I normally plant excess as they can die but this year I have all healthy plants maybe too much for one person lol. Heated mat doubles up for my kombucha kefir and sourdough so added bonus during the cold months.
I normally grow chillies, and after very leggy growth from starting on New Year’s day last year, this year I decided to start them at the beginning of March. I also went ahead and planned some red onion sets.
I really like that the seed trays come with perfectly fitting trays to sit them in and catch excess water. It is these that the clear domes sit on top of, providing a good deal of growing height for seedlings. The LEDs snap into a section on top of the domes, and rotate around to open ventilation holes. Having the holes open does not block the LEDs, so you can have them open all of the time. The 5 trays fit snugly on the heating mat.
The timer function for the LEDS is very handy! But so far for me the heat mat is the standout. In 1 week of use, I’ve had good chilli pepper germination, and a number of onion sets have already started putting out growth. It’s now over to the LEDs to prove that they can prevent leggy growth. I set up the heat mat on a baking cooling tray to protect my kitchen work surface, and it has worked perfectly!
Although I really like the heat mat, this is where my criticisms come in. I wish the heat mat also had a timer, like the LEDs do. I think it’s working a little too well by having it running all the time, and my seedlings might get too used to the constant warmth that in general, my home can’t emulate at this time of year. The plug for the heat mat, which is separate to the LEDS, is very small and stiff. Unplugging it is a bit of a challenge, so a built in timer would be great. I have had to plug it in to a plug timer, then plug that into the mains.
Overall, I think this is a really great bit of kit. The seed trays all feel decent quality, and the initial germination results are very impressive. I hope the LEDs are enough to sustain healthy growth!
Liked this product, all lids, bases and soil holders are sturdy, fitting the LEDs is super easy to fit and the different timers are very helpful the Heat mat gives a better germination rate in not so sunny window positions.
Going to try the heated pad when finished to prove my bread ! Only 4 stars yet as not had it long enough !
This is a comprehensive set of equipment to propagate seeds. Everything comes in a neat package and comprises
– one warming mat with integrated cable and 230V plug
– five containers each with a separate seed tray and clear plastic lid with adjustable vent
– a full set of LED lights with cables (but requires a USB supply – not included).
The instruction manual provided is brief but adequate.
The only concern was that the 230V plug has no fuse. Whilst the warming mat gets barely warm, certainly no hotter than human temperature, it is therefore very low current but, to alleviate my concerns regarding any possibility of a short circuit or uncontrolled over heating, I fitted the plug to a 3A fused adapter.
Setting up for propagating seeds is straightforward by following the instructions. I chose as a first attempt to use lettuce and tomato seeds. I would not normally start so early in the year but I was pleasantly surprised to find the lettuce seeds had germinated in 4 days on the warming mat and the tomatoes shortly after. In fact, they had grown so fast in the darkness (seeds don’t need light to germinate) that I had to connect the LED lights to stop the leggy growth. The photo shows the lettuce sprouting before the lights were used.
The warming mat works extremely well and, coupled with the lid over the seed tray (with vent fully closed), the moisture within did not evaporate thus providing the nice, humid atmosphere that young plants need to thrive.
With this equipment I will be ahead of my normal schedule for spring seed germination hence it gets five stars.
Everything you need to get your seeds started. All germinated well in the heat including chillis and the seedlings are good and sturdy not leggy due to the lights very pleased
