Check soil moisture levels; the plants may need more water or could be receiving too much direct heat.
No germination occurring
Ensure the seeds have enough light and that the soil is kept consistently moist but not waterlogged.
Condensation on the clear panels
This is normal, but if it becomes excessive, briefly open the greenhouse to allow for air circulation.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To begin, assemble the transparent greenhouse frame on a stable, flat surface near a window. Use the provided manual to distribute the seeds correctly among the designated containers. Ensure you have access to potting soil, as this is typically needed to start the growth process. To care for the kit, wipe the exterior of the plastic structure with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust. Do not use harsh chemical cleaners, as these can affect the plant environment. Ensure the greenhouse is kept away from extreme heat sources such as radiators, which could dry out the seedlings too quickly.
