I have not noticed any rooting problems, using thick one ply paper. I like to dampen the strips overnight before planting, to give the seeds a head start, and the thick paper hold up to being physically transferred from the tray to the spot to be planted. Hope that helps!

Wow, that's awesome of you! I'd love to help, however, I no longer have my collection of succulents to share. Moreover, I think growing succulent is not a good project for kids, as they are extremely slow growing.

As I get more involved in this, I plan on eventually reaching out to schools and community projects and getting more people involved. Here is couple links for you to check out. (And I'm not funded or in anyway profiting from these links, only want to share my interest.) http://www.redwormcomposting.com/getting-started/This site also has a FB page that is a wonderful community full of worm loving folks, including several large scale experts. And here is my humble worm bin that I made last year. https://www.instructables.com/id/5-Minute-5-Dollar-Worm-Farm/If you are interested or have any questions, message me, and I'll be happy to help. I also have worms I'm willing to share, if it comes to that. :)Good luck, whatever project you end up doing!
