I received a plant raising kit from Megan as a birthday present and decided to put it to immediate use! My first attempt features Balsam seeds (no idea what the genus and species are - must do some research) that Megan also gave me :)
This is ideal as the only space I have to grow anything here is the roof, and as you can imagine this is a rather harsh environment for germinating seeds and seedlings. This kit enabled me to create the perfect environment for germination in the balcony of my own bedroom (parents can't complain about me causing clutter here - and by parents I obviously mean my dad). The balcony is great as it functions exactly like a greenhouse, trapping heat with its many glass panes. Here is a picture of one of the first germinating Balsam seeds.
This should be a hardy type - I do so hope it survives on the roof once it grows more! I shall update the story as the seedlings grow :)
