Here ya’ go. I remember reading about this a long time ago.
I have not tried it myself so I can’t say whether or not it works. It sounds like a good idea. They say it’s a great way to space your seeds as opposed to scattering them on the ground.
I use newspaper, and this technique that is outlined in Gardenweb.
Cool!
I suppose you could make a small “seed mat” by layering the blobs with seeds between two thin sheets of paper towels.
I’m so going to try this!
Take a strip of newspaper, put seed on it and glue them on with a mix of flour and water. Lay the strip where you want the flowers to grow, cover with 1 inch of dirt and water every day.
