## Description

desertcart.com : 1000 Live Duckweed Plants LEMNA Minor : Patio, Lawn & Garden

Review: Zero issues, let alone ones mentioned? - Reviews are all over the board. My experience is this: Ordered: Took a week USPS, late October. Picked up within the hour. Which by chance they give you two hours for warranty. Arrived in name brand ziplock sandwich bag, devoid of running fluids. Open it and took big wiff, just organic smell. I took out 1/4 of clump, spread it out in water, had ai count them, several thousand leaves it claims. So you get 10x+ ai evaluation: Based on a visual estimation from the image, the approximate ratio of the leaves is: ​Green: 75-80% ​Yellow/Brown: 20-25% More: In summary, for a small-scale culture like this appears to be, it looks quite typical. If this were in a larger pond ecosystem, the rapid growth could become problematic, but for contained cultivation, it indicates successful propagation with minor, normal die-off.
Review: HORRIBLE plants DEAD ON ARRIVAL - NO SURVIVING THEM - I was hopeful... but greatly disappointed. At least the plants were not shipped in a plastic bag, but a specimen jar, so that was good. Out of 1000+ plants, NONE were green. Notta. All brown. And, there is nothing in the desertcart description that states they cannot be placed in an outdoor pond. That is why I purchased them in the first place. The instructions that arrived with these dead plants states that they will have a putrid sewage smell with some explanation as to why. It also says that some will not be green and that is normal... well, mine stayed brown for about 5 days, and I discarded them all. I quarantined them, as stated in the instructions. I would have NEVER tossed them into my pond or aquarium. I love my fish too much for that. It also states that duckweed is very hard to kill. Well, I guess that if you place them in a covered container and ship them to other states, that is one way to kill them. No SUN???.... so if you have a pond that has direct sun,that is the second way to kill duckweed. So, feel free to toss these in your shady swamp and enjoy!! I would have rather taken my $7 and purchased a BK Whopper. The sellers should explain exactly what these are, and how they are to be grown. Not after receiving the product, but before, like in the desertcart description. Shame on them. No direct sunlight??? No where in the description does it say for indoor growing only. But on the packing slip, that is exactly what it states. Go somewhere else and purchase quality plants. As you can tell, I am not happy at all with this seller or the plants that they bagged from their backyard swamp and are selling on desertcart. I thought at least I could get a runaway snail in the batch, but that didn't happen either.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ More than I asked for! Excellent!
*by H***Y on September 7, 2020*

First off, my duckweed arrived in a bottle, like a medical bottle. I received so much more than 1000! Sadly most of it died which is my fault, not the sellers, I'll explain. I had asked a friend to pick up my mail the day it arrived because I was at work. The friend bailed on me, had better things to do and the duckweed sat in a metal parcel locker in the sun four 3+ hours in 90+ degrees which in the metal parcel locker was probably 100+ degrees. It was pretty much white from being cooked. I did separate all the green ones from the center I could find and waiting to see if they recover. Next time I will be ordering in cooler weather and yes I will order from this seller again, even though the duckweed was mostly gone I could see it was heat damage and not a bad batch. The roots are long and I could see how healthy they all where! Ok now it smells extremely bad. Even when it's a good batch it's gonna smell like death warmed over, this is stagnant pond water it's in. So be prepared for that and maybe open outside. To help the smell, just put it in maybe a different container and use dechlorinated water and swap out some of the water and the smell will reduce. It's gonna be going through a bit of transfer shock so give it some time to quarantine and recover before throwing it in your tank or pond.
