[QUOTE="Davy Crockett, post: 174987, member: 367"] Another thing that gets overlooked is seed quality, I've had packets of seed that had 10% germination in perfect soil conditions. I should store them in a dry airtight container. [COLOR=silver][SIZE=1]- - - Updated - - -[/SIZE][/COLOR] You won't believe the difference. For the fun of it I planted half a bag of bird seed , I have a set of sample screens that I used to separate the seeds and I planted the peanuts and Nyger separate and the safflower /sunflower and what ever else was in there and just raked it in and threw a 4x5 chunk of carpet down and watered the crap out of it . Two days later I peeked under the carpet and everything except for the peanuts had sprouts growing already. I am scouting for long strips of old jute back carpet , The cardboard worked good but carpet worked better. wind was the culprit.
