Seed tape – does it work?
We’ve had a garden here for several years, with each year bringing new ideas and knowledge, yet no matter what is learned, one fact cannot be escaped. Gardens are a lot of work! Work I begrudgingly accept because of the benefits I enjoy. Oh no, not without grumbling, … there is argument, and costly procrastination (Mother Nature doesn’t give a crap if you are tired), and rotation, planning, compost… etc..
With all of that on the table, any trick to spare some toil is good information to have, and the latest one we’ve tried is the use of seed tape to help in the planting of our carrots. For a while I was against it, and still am when it comes to the store bought seed tape. Having read many stories online where the results were not good at all, I was sceptical when Cass brought the idea of home-made seed tape to the table.
