Hi All,

I was looking at a packet of carrot seeds. They are very
tiny. How do you plant them without special vision equipment?

Many thanks,

Mix them with dry sand then put the mixture in folded piece of paper.
Gently tap the paper as you move it along the row and the mix will
fall out in a thin stream along the fold. Adjust the amount of sand
to how densely you want to plant them.

Rather than using a piece of folded paper, it's easier if you just
dump the sand/seed mix in a jar with a plastic lid where you have
drilled a hole. I use an old Vegemite jar with about a quarter inch
hole in it's lid. Works a treat.

Sounds like a good idea.

But what about the poor benighted souls who don't have a vegemite jar? I
suppose we could arrange food parcels. I reckon Shelley at least could do
with some B-group supplement, it might delay Korsakoff's syndrome.
