Seed spreader
« on: September 24, 2024, 10:59 »
Looking for something - a seed spreader for small seeds, that I can scatter sow phacelia seed (green manure) with. Tried hand spreading but I usually put too much and not enough left to cover the ground I want to do. Also it's not spread evenly enough. Any recommendations for a decent one that isn't too expensive, that actually does the job. Thanks.

I haven't road tested any of them.

But I have heard suggestions of mixing small seed with sand (not builder's sand) and then manually spreading them like that - it apparently helps with more even distribution.
I try to take one day at a time, but sometimes several days all attack me at once...
