This is an educational product that helps children understand how seeds grow and how roots form. Children can watch the process as the roots grow down and carrots, radishes, and onions take form. Everything is included in the kit. There are three packages of easy-to-grow seeds, 2-sided posters, special plant identification labels, and a special garden growing box with grow mix that works very effectively. It drains easily from the bottom of the container. This is great for teachers to use in the classroom and for the child at home. This company has a fine line of other educational growing projects including one to produce worms.
