Lately I've been spending more and more time out in the garden areas of our yard. Got the potato pots planted, put in some radish seed using the seed tape and have begun eyeing the rest of the planting beds to see what needs doing next. It's time for some things to get planted, too early for others. But the soil still needs working to be ready.
Which means I tend to read articles on this sort of thing and this particular gardening article struck me as the dumbest thing ever.
The Cotton Ball Hack to Germinate Seeds for Your Garden. The idea is you cram a bunch of cotton balls tightly into a jar, wet them down and then pop one or two seeds into it. Place the jar in a sunny window and moisten the cotton as needed. The one or two seeds should eventually grow enough to me removed and planted.
Who is going to do this? How many jars of cotton balls will have to sit around sunny windows in order to make the garden worth while? Not gonna be me.
