It is important to plant extra seeds to ensure success .
For larger seeds and fruiting plants, sow only a few extra
seeds . Increase number of seeds as seed size decreases
and for plants that grow in bunches, such as chives .
Typically, 6 seeds per Grow Pod works well .
P
repare Pod Labels
Here are a few preliminary steps that will help the Grow
Pod building process go smoothly .
•
Preheat iron to a moderate temperature (between silk
and cotton settings on most irons, 300°- 400°F) . Do not
use steam.
•
Write the name of seeds or
plant cutting on Label(s)
with permanent marker .
Doing this before you
start planting prevents
accidental mislabeling of
Grow Pods .
•
If you are re-using a
Split-Apart Basket, be sure
to scrape residue from
previous Label off the
surface . Remnant glue
will prevent new Label
from adhering .
