Seed sower
First time to these gardeners groups so crossposted to
free.uk and england.rec Hello there, For several years I have used a seed sowing tool in my kichen garden which consists of two pieces of round - shaped - moulded - clear plastic with different sized holes that, when fitted together with the seeds inside,is wheeled along the drills on the end of a 3ft long stick. Looks for all the world like a childs wind toy. On one of the pieces there is an embossed logo consisting of... "Outil", a wolfs head in a circle and "Wolf" Where I got this tool from I have no idea now but I do recall a catalogue. If anyone knows where I can get a replacement for mine, which I accidently trod on, I would be most grateful. This 'device' takes all the backache out of seed sowing together with (in my opinion) a more uniform growth of the seedlings and a lot less wastage by 'thinning'. It is also ideal for gardeners like myself whose knees don't bend too well! As the price of seeds continues up and the quantity of seeds goes down, it seems to me to be not very cost effective if one needs to throw away (for lack of space) 'thinnings'. TIA for any replies. Regards, Roy. -- R. Hunt, Llannor, Pwllheli, Gwynedd, U.K * Never play leapfrog with a unicorn * |

You can order online if you feel easy about this way of getting goods or you can e-mail them... for more info which is my preferred way of doing things. Alan. How can you e-mail and not have easy access to the web?? -- R. Hunt, Llannor, Pwllheli, Gwynedd, U.K * My wife ran away with my best friend. I sure miss him! * |
