Great Idea But It Takes Too Long To Get Started
Posted 1/18/2008 by Monica
Rating: 
I bought this kit for my son and he was so excited to get started. After opening it and reading instructions, I was surprised and my son was more than a little disappointed. I didn't realize that we had to put the terrarium in the fridge for 8 weeks! We are in the second week of the fridge stage and my son asks for it nearly every day. I don't know what will happen after we take it out of the fridge. For example, will it take another several weeks for the plants to begin to grow? I don't know if the 8-week refrigerator period would have prevented me from purchasing this terrarium but I wish I had known before we started so I could have set the right expectations with my son.

My rating of Carnivorous Creations Dome Terrarium Kit

I asked my son what he wanted for his birthday. (he's 7) He told me he wants Hannah Montana and a carnivorous plant. I don't know exactly what that means, but I got the plant. He LOVES it. You can put ants and spiders inside the dome, but Hannah Montana is a bit too large.

Refreshing Gift Idea
Posted 6 days ago
Rating:
My friends and I are all tired of the cheap, uninteresting plastic toys that are typically given as birthday presents. I gave this as a gift to a 4 year old and he and his mom planted it together. They enjoyed the interaction and the anticipation of watching it grow. They spend more time looking up information about different plants now then zooming another plastic car around the house. I plan on buying one for my kids for their birthdays. Also, I was surprised by how quickly more order arrived.

The kit itself was all inclusive - it included everything to get the plants growing. The plants haven't started growing yet. They have to sit (per the directions in the kit) in refrigerator for 6 weeks.

It looks great and was what I expected. It has to go in the refrigerator for eight weeks so I will have more news about how it is growing in 10-12 weeks. Even though the box is marked for children age 4 and up, I am a 49 year old child so I am looking forward to my plants growing!
Not What I Thought

I was eager to get my terrarium started. To my dismay I found that after you follow the simple directions you needed to put it in the refrigerator for 8 weeks. I understood it was not going to be a project that I would enjoy immediately, but did not expect I would have to wait 8 weeks before the seedlings would begin to sprout. Not to mention who wants a box (cute as it is) taking up space in your refrigerator! I hope it all works out in the end, guess I will just have to wait to see...

Great product. I actually didn't plant the seeds because I already had a venus fly trap that just needed a home, but I plan on it !

It's Growing in our Refrigerator Right Now

It takes 8 weeks to grow, so we don't know how spectacular this is yet. But my 9 year old is very pleased with it so far. He says, "I really wanted to grow some carnivorous plants. I can't wait for them to be fully grown."
Carniverous Plant Fun

This is a good sized dome flower pot with seeds and instructions. The plant requires refrigeration for many weeks, so be aware that fridge space will be necessary.

Looks Good But 8 Weeks In The Refrigerator?
Posted 11/16/2006 by Frank Pantaleo

I like the dome, but the 8 weeks in refrigerator? (Note from Fat Brain Toys: Unfortunately, simulating the process of winter is required for germination of the seed. 8 weeks... Not a bad winter for those of us in Nebraska.)

It's a wonderful collection of plants. Everything you need to start and instruction on their care. My 12 year old son is totally fascinated with it.

My daughter was very excited to receive her terrarium. She was a little disappointed that we are waiting to plant it so that the plants won't be growing during what would normally be their dormant period.

My son was thrilled with this gift! He was slightly disappointed that it took 8 weeks in the fridge before we could see anything growing. We are awaiting just this thing!

If you like terrarium / plant kits, this one is good so far. i've done Phase 1 of the planting (part of the kit you need to keep in the fridge for 6 weeks for maximum plantage. The directions are very clear and helpful.I'm looking forward to my bug-eating sprouts.
It Made a Nice Gift

I selected this product in large part because it was Made in USA.
