i didn't have much luck with the throw and grow. it says on the bag you should still do the lime and fertilizer thing. wasn't what i was hoping for.

without some sunlight (4 hrs)you may not have much luck. If you want to just draw them for a shot there are many products for that and some actually have mineral support.

even with that much sun without doing the fertilizer and lime it only got to 2 leaves and died on me.
