Having a blonde moment (thats blonde, not senior, PW ok!

I know I've seen devices that enable you to pick up one tiny seed at a time. What are they called please? I want one!

Can point you to this thread on seed dispensers

Also, I notice that there's a free draw for a good looking one called Magic Seeder on the email from GYO this month.

Beat me to it, IJ!

Brilliant, thanks! And oh! the tragedy, as the link is to Nicky's, I shall just HAVE to browse through the seeds too

[HeyWayne]

Aha! So they're designed to pick seeds up not blow them out! I did wonder what purpose they'd serve. I thought to myself "how do you load the seeds into the balloon bit in the fiurst place.."

Every day's a school day!

Do you mean one of these
Pro-Seeder for Sowing (Gardening Equipment)

[Patsy]

At one of our gardening club meetings the speaker demonstrated picking up tiny seeds with a felt tip pen and putting then exactly where you wanted them on the soil. I presume the dampness of the soil meant that the seeds then dropped off the end of the pen. He's evidently been doing it for years so I'm going to give it a try this year. Hope it works!
