Planting Small Seeds

When planting small seeds, mix the small seeds with sand or vermiculite to get even distribution across the sowing surface. This is especially useful with planting small vegetable seeds such as carrots and small annual plant seed. Another easy way with planting small seeds is to get a small piece of paper, fold it in half and pour your seeds into the paper fold. Then plant the small seeds by lightly shaking or tapping the paper at a downward angle so that the seeds slide off the paper as needed. This last suggestion is what I use to plant my dill seeds and it really works quite well.
