About this deal

Unlike large seeds, most small seeds require light to germinate. After small seeds are sown, take care not to bury them under too much soil, or you’ll never see seedlings emerge. There’s no magic recipe here – simply mix a pinch of seed with a couple tablespoons of sand. Then, either broadcast the mixture over the planting area or use a saltshaker to sow in a more constrained space. 2.Cornmeal Cosmos ‘Rubenza’ goes into Jiffys to sow the seeds (left), and to grow on, seedlings are potted into 7cm pots (right) A cosmos sown in March wouldn’t be able to go outside for weeks, but one sown in the middle of April can have visits outdoors from the off and it will be all the stronger for it. These plants soon catch up with an earlier sowing, as light levels and change of season are now more on their side.

There are lots of different ways for seeds to be moved around the world. This is called seed distribution . Drip watering is basically just a very slow application of water direct to the soil. This method of watering doesn't have to be complicated, on a very small scale you can do this by simply pouring water very gentry onto your seeds from a small cup or jug. On a larger scale drip irrigation could be installed, which uses fine tubes to release tiny amounts of water on a nearly continuous basis exactly where you want it. It works very well if you have good water quality, but the fine tubes can become clogged with minerals in a hard-water situation and are much more difficult to clean than mister nozzles. That being said, it offers exceptional control of where the water ends up, allowing you to avoid watering unwanted plants and weeds in your garden.

Lots of annual plants will produce and scatter seeds once they have finished flowering. This means that although they only last for one season, you can leave them to do the job of replacing themselves for you. Cosmos plants will produce more flowers if you keep cutting them. It’s also very likely that they will seed themselves wherever you plant them, so you’ll probably find lots of new plants popping up next spring for absolutely zero effort. Nigella The larger end of thesmall seeds includes cosmos, weighing in at 100 seeds per gram and remaining relatively easy to handle in the garden setting. Small vegetable and herbseeds include seeds that have several hundred seeds per gram, including arugula, basil, broccoli, Brussels sprouts, cabbage, Chinese cabbage, cauliflower, chicory, chives, eggplant, endive, fennel, kale, leek, mustard, onion, parsley, parsnips, peppers, rosemary, sage, tomato, and turnip, just to name a few. Tiny vegetable and herb seeds include a range of varieties with several thousand seeds per gram, which can include celery, Mexican coriander, purslane, lettuce,poppy, strawflower, thyme, and watercress. Truly minute seeds include seeds with tens to hundreds of thousands of seeds per gram, including commonly grown oregano's astounding 10,000 seeds per gram and wormwoods near 20,000 seeds per gram. The world's smallest seeds are invisible to the naked eyes, with certain tropical orchids have seeds that are so tiny, there are nearly one billion seeds per gram!

Make a seed tape:Though we often think of seed tape as a commercial preparation, it's actually very easy to make a homemade seed tape. This allows you to have the ease of this type of planting without the limitations of available varieties from commercial seed companies. Cut strips of paper from a newspaper or paper towel roll, then make a mixture of one part water to four parts flour to create a paste. Dab the mixture onto the paper at the intervals recommended, then place a seed or two on each dab of pasteand let it dry. This has the benefit of allowing you to handle the seeds in a controlled environment, where dropped seeds can be easily seen on a flat tabletop and no wind blows them out of your hand. The paper and paste will dissolve after planting, leaving the seed in place and perfectly spaced. When leaves are of an appetising size, use scissors to snip off a few from each plant at 2.5cm (1in) from the base. Avoid damaging the central growing point of the plant and allow the remaining leaves to grow onFor more specific tips on growing flowers, see our Flower Growing Guides for inspiration and advice. I do have a few cold frames and small glass cloches that are vital to protect the delicate seedlings from the elements. These I place on garden tables and chairs, raised up and away from any slugs and snails.
