Egg shell seedlings

I'm definitely a throw-caution-to-the-wind kind of gal. I learn best from my mistakes and I think that makes me a foolish/wise person. I'm working towards wise...

 Empty Egg Carton

Trimmed up carton with seeds to plant.

Carton with each space labeled. Along with labeling the carton, I label the shells.

This batch of seedlings I'm sprouting Chives, Parsley and Scallions. 

In the shells I take a tapestry needle (any needle will do) and poke 1-3 holes large enough to let water out and small enough to still retain the soil.

In a mixing bowl add 1/2 cup "jiffy-mix" with water, until you reach a wet breadcrumb consistency. Add about 1 tbsp into each shell and lightly pat down. You want to form a seed well into the center of each shell. (Note: Do not try making cornbread with this mix.)

Add 3-4 seedlings of the appropriate plant to each shell. Then I added another 1/2 tsp of soil mix on top and lightly patted down. 

Here they are planted.

 Electrolytes, it's what plants crave! Ok, I just reuse this for tappé water. The spout makes it sprout friendly. I add 5-8 drops a day and keep covered in this gallon sized zip-lock bag. It lets the sun through, but doesn't let the moisture out. It should stay on for 1-2 week or until the sprouts are too large.

You'll want to replant in about 21 days or when you see the second set of leaves sprouting. Different plants take longer to germinate than others. Good luck and happy gardening.
