Tizeye Posted March 4, 2022 Share #3 Posted March 4, 2022 Should have a bunch of wildflowers! I bought some this year, selectively planting in various areas. Squirrels promptly began digging where planted so pit some netting over. Beginning to poke through today...less the strip I seeded yesterday. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mixing the seed with bags of sand to control how densely the seed is spread. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allen ★ Posted March 4, 2022 Author Share #8 Posted March 4, 2022 I burned the bashed up cardboard boxes that held the seed. My neighbor, a half a mile away, asked if I was burning something as his yard is filled with smoke. Spread really finely, a cardboard box covers an amazingly large area.

One dark stormy night, excess wildflower seed needs to be disposed of. They will love your lawn fertilizer and should have a bountiful crop of flowers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mixing the seed with bags of sand to control how densely the seed is spread. the trick is too find a carrier with particles approximately the same size and weight as your seeds. Think about a glass jar with two different size or weight materials in it. Shake it up and they will separate out. Make sure the sand is very dry if you can. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
