The Seed and Plant Dibbers are ideal for planting seeds and young plants into seed trays and pots. These double-ended Dibbers also feature a blunt end which is ideal for ejecting plants from trays without having to push the polystyrene bottom out.
The Seed and Plant Dibbers package contains two green-colored dibbers.
I have seed-spreading trees and shrubs all around my vegetable garden. Plastic mulch makes it easy to prevent their seeds from establishing in my beds. This little device is the best yet for piercing the plastic mulch where I want to insert pea, bean, squash or other direct-planted seeds. After I create the hole, I spread the opening with my fingers, drop in the seed, cover it with soil and firm it in. The bean and pea seeds are first sprouted in water. Squash seeds are direct planted. I have had a very high success rate planting this way.
I LOVE this product! I have a garden club at my daughters' school and can't wait to give them these dibbers!
I love these things. I always used a pencil or marker but for such a simple thing....I would not be without these. When using them the hole stays put and the dirt don't fall back in. Perfect for planting seeds. They really come in handy. I have also found they are good for other crafts also...cake decorating, working with clay.I am hoping to order another pack.
These were very helpful planting seeds!
