Interesting article. But unless the sowing is done on an essentially
sterile surface, how does he differentiate between wanted plants and
weed seedlings? That's why, conventionally, sowing is done in
monoculture strips, for thinning later. It is easy to distinguish
between the wanted plants and the weeds.
