Frugal Gardener Garden Procrastinator I helped beta test the first seed swap Plant and/or Seed Trader Seed Starter Region: Pacific Northwest
Photo Contest Winner: 2014 Avid Green Pages Reviewer Garden Ideas: Master Level Garden Sages I was one of the first 300 contributors to the plant database! I helped plan and beta test the plant database.
I've started entering, but need to take many notes at home about how-many-pkts and approximate sizes.

When I go 110% bonkers-crazy with small quantities, I will sometimes dish up several packets with a small spoon (1/16th tsp, 1/32nd, or even 1/64th), then WEIGH the packets, and even-off the weights of the heaviest and lightest pkts, so each is fairly equal in size.

However, let me stress that even I think that's a crazy degree of O. Seed D.

A little O. Seed D. is fine, but there is such a thing as going TOO far with nit-picky-ness.

On the other hand, I know people who carefully COUNT OUT exactly 20 petunia seeds.
Their eyes must be SO much better than mine!

Thanks again for running a beta test!
