any adive is greatly appreciated.

They are not foolproof (there are just *too* many talented fools around!).
They usually want a perfectly flat layout, and no one is that good with a
trowel.

I am not sure if you have to put any soil on top the paper that has the
attached seeds, but if so that makes it a bit easier. But you don't get hardly
anything for the effort with the paper.

Examine why your previous attempts at gardening failed and you may figure out
what you would need to do, even with, the paper roll or plant seeds. Most
likely you were inattentive at the wrong time. Little seeds go through
changes very quickly and one oups I forgot to water today, could kill the whole
lot. They are some of the things (even on a paper roll) that need attention in
the early part of life. Marking calendars is one easy way to remember daily
things like are the seeds moist?

I would advise that you read the newsgroup for a while, and see what others
are doing in similar situations (locations!). Sometimes it's not the seed but
knowing that what you have chosen actually 'likes' it there.

And then there are always small plants in 2 - 5" containers, that are all
past that snively seed stage.
