Note to gardeners: how to sow seeds of peppers, eggplants, tomatoes with an iron
There is an interesting way to plant vegetable and flower seeds using an iron. Let's talk about this interesting method. Of course, other materials and preparations will also be needed. They are listed below.
What you need
planting box;
fertile land;
seeds;
toilet paper;
vermiculite;
drug "Kornevin";
water;
iron.
Step-by-step instruction
1. First you need a tall box where you need to pour fertile soil. It should be slightly moist.
2. Then the ground must be leveled with an old iron (many probably still have an iron from Soviet times somewhere in the attic or pantry), pressing it to the ground. The surface of the soil will become smooth, which will ensure uniform germination of seeds. In general, any iron will do. But if you use it for its intended purpose (for ironing clothes), then the surface should be cleaned after the procedure.
3. Next, lay toilet paper on the surface of the soil.
4. Then you should take 1 gram of Kornevin and dilute it in 1 liter of water at room temperature. Using a tablespoon, wet the top of the toilet paper with the solution. Due to Kornevin, the seeds will germinate better.
5. It is necessary to spread the seeds on paper at a distance of 1.5 cm from each other. Due to the paper, the seeds are sown at the same depth. Therefore, almost all of them will rise evenly.
6. Next, you need to pour a small layer of vermiculite on the seeds. This substance will retain moisture, causing the seeds to germinate faster.
7. The next layer is fertile soil. It is necessary to pour a little earth on the vermiculite with a layer of 1 cm. With the help of an iron, press the earth again, tamping it a little.
8. After that, the soil must be moistened with a spray bottle.
Above, an unusual way of sowing seeds with an iron and toilet paper was considered.
