Does anyone know how to make their own seed mats or rolls?

I would like to make my own seed mats or rolls for next spring like the ones that sell on tv comercials. Does anyone know how?

Answer 1

Cool!  

I suppose you could make a small "seed mat" by layering the blobs with seeds between two thin sheets of paper towels.

I'm so going to try this!

Here ya' go.  I remember reading about this a long time ago.

I have not tried it myself so I can't say whether or not it works.  It  sounds like a good idea.  They say it's a great way to space your seeds as opposed to scattering them on the ground.

Answer 3

I use newspaper, and this technique that is outlined in Gardenweb.

Take a strip of newspaper, put seed on it and glue them on with a mix of flour and water. Lay the strip where you want the flowers to grow, cover with 1 inch of dirt and water every day.
