- Опубликовано: 7 сен 2024
- I looked into seed tape and I found out making your own is super easy and much cheaper than buying it. I’m going to show you how. Below is a list of everything you’ll need to make them (you have it all around the house).
• Toilet roll (or kitchen roll)
• Seeds (note how far apart they should be planted)
• Flour Glue (just flour and water mixed)
• A skewer or a toothpick
• A ruler
• A pencil
• Scissors
• Sponge
• Small Dish of water
• An airtight container - a jar with lid will be enough

I only recently learned about seed tape. I've watched a few videos on DIY, but yours is my favorite! Spring has just started, but im out of time for preparing fresh beds. But, this will be great for my medicine garden next year!
Oh I'm so glad it was helpful to you! I used my carrot seed tape last year and it certainly helped me keep them the right distance apart - I didn't even have to thin them out - which is great, because I'm not a good thinner-outter! 😊
Thank You :)
A great winter project when I can't be in the garden, thank you!
I hope you get creative with what seeds you use! 😊
Thank you, thank you, thank you. I'm terrible at spacing, so I'll be making these by the bucket full. 😀
I'm so happy this is helpful to you 😊 I can assure you I'll be doing the same 😂
Highly underrated video. Well done.
Thanks from Germany.
let me know if you need seeds from old breeds of my country's varietys as a thank you.
@@scarnoir6566 I'm so pleased you enjoyed it! ☺️
This is brilliant, thank you.
I'm glad you found it helpful 🙂
Hi Robin, youxould use a matchstick to pick up each seed. I do this when I sow carrot seeds onto wet kitchen towel that is placed inside a plastic tub. I put the lid on a leave them to germinate then, plant them into small holes in the compost to carry on growing. No need to thin out as im the same as you, dont like to thin out. Great idea for people who like to use trips. Lots of good advice. Thanks for sharing and take care 🙂
Great idea for using the match sticks! 😊
Hey Robin, I didn’t even know what seed tape was 😊 I’ve just had to Google 🤣 so I’ve definitely learned something new today. What a fantastic idea!! ❤
Thank you, Janette! I noticed it on a seed company's menu and was amazed at how few seeds there are for the money. I had to work out how to make some and just had to share.
LOVING THIS!!!
Wish it was my idea :D
Thanks so much! I have used the flour glue on other projects and knew it was right for this one, too. 😁
i had 53 varieties of carrots last season. For every variety i had 10 rows à 150cm ( 3x50cm). If i would have done it, like you show it, i would still working on it. 😉 But the idea is good, no question. If you do it every 2,5cm it works perfectly... 👍
Wow! You have your own carrot factory there! I reckon the seed tape would be really useful on a smaller scale, or to do during the winter months when not much is going on. You'll be swimming in carrot soup, you will! 😁
Robin, this is absolute genius, well done, brilliant 🎉
Thanks so much! 😊
Thank you so much. Clearly demonstrated and will give it a try for next Spring
I'm so glad it's helpful! 😊
Nice sharing my dear friend 👍
Thank you 😊
Very creative idea - should work really well ! We are still subscribed to your channel and supporting you !
Thank you! 😊
Brilliant!
I'm glad it's helpful to you 😊
@@robinscontainergarden I'm going to try doing carrots this was as I think I got about 4 carrots last year!
@@bristolveggiebeds5310 I'm not a thinner-outter of veg (I know I should do it but I hate killing stuff that's growing). So I'm going to use this system for carrots, spring onions, and beetroot next season. Maybe more but definitely those. I know I'll still have to thin a bit, but maybe a little later when I can use the leaves in salads so it doesn't feel quite as wasteful. 😁

I am American, but I have lived in Scotland for more than 15 years, so the vocabulary tends to change when you live abroad. ☺️
