Low-Tech Devices for Collecting, Processing, and Planting Seeds
From the Editor:
Without doubt, I get the most feedback from readers concerning the gizmos and gadgets people use to grow and plant native species. And without doubt, most growers feel that their improvisations are not really that special. In the following series of 7 short articles, you'll see how kitchen tools, badminton racquets, rock tumblers, and film canisters can be turned into efficient seed processing tools. I hope that some of these tricks can improve your nursery operations. — Kas
