How to make Seed Bombs

This is a way to put your seeds of things out in the garden.  I think it's a great idea, especially for those who don't like planting.

Sorry can't copy it under laws, so here is the site

Thanks Sandy think this will be a great project to do with the younger grandchildren which they can take home with them ,and also good for Community Garden projects. 

Do you have the strict water restrictions we have here, sprinklers only 2 days a week between 6pm through to 9am plus other restrictions? Thank goodness for Native plants which survive through weeks of there being no rain at all.

Yes we have restrictions.  No washing cars with hoses buckets only and on lawns.

Watering between certain hours.  They have the distillation plant running at low capacity (they were going to mothball it). 

We haven't had rain since the bushfires in January.  Keep telling us it's going to rain, but it never eventuates.

Everybody was so good saving water that they did the dirty on us and now charge the highest price for water from the start.  The more you use the cheaper it gets.  Bloody ridiculous but they have to make their money somehow.

Might be useful if you are trying to regenerate an area

Abby if you want to make an area look like a meadow this is the way to do it because you get random different flowers (as long as you put different seeds in the one ball) and they generally re-seed and come up again the next year.

I was more thinking about about increasing native vegetation where it is diminished.
