Seeds on tape

Seeds on tape are seeds placed in a special biodegradable paper or foil tape that facilitates even sowing. The tape is already prepared with appropriate spacing, eliminating the need to measure the distance between seeds by hand. Once the tape is placed in the soil and watered, the material breaks down and the seeds begin to germinate.

Advantages of seeds on tape:

✅Uniform seeding: the seeds are spaced at perfect intervals, preventing overcrowding of plants.

✅Time savings: The sowing process is faster and easier, especially for novice gardeners.

✅Less thinning: Even spacing gives plants enough room to grow, minimizing the need for thinning.

✅Cleaner hands and less mess: Less contact with soil and seeds.

It’s great for people who want a neat and tidy garden without too much effort! 😊🌱

How do the seeds on the tape work?

The seeds are embedded in a thin ribbon made of biodegradable material, such as paper or a special film that decomposes in the soil after watering. The tape is several meters long (usually 3 to 10 meters) and 1 to 5 cm wide. Seeds are placed on it at equal intervals, adapted to the requirements of a particular plant.
