Sowing the seeds

I've finally got round to sowing the swan plant seeds that I gathered earlier this year - in my prototype recycled seed tray, made from six toilet rolls and two small beer boxes.


The idea is that I'll be able to transplant the seedling into the ground, tube and all, without disturbing and damaging it. And then I can compost or reuse the cardboard crate. If it works, I'll be using this free and sustainable model for all my seedlings.
