RE: How to Make Seed Bombs and Grow Food Everywhere!
It's a nice idea, but how does it work in practice? A lot of the plants need additional care during their life, if you throw a cucumber for example just anywhere at a random place, even if it will grow into a full grown plant and produce real cucumbers, who will notice it to harvest it? Or how is it going to be maintained to produce food for a longer period?
It is more of a tool that can be utilized in a variety of ways. If it's an overgrown or abandoned lot, I like to toss wildflower seedbombs or native varieties that are hardy. Depending on how much rain you get in your area, some things can thrive without any attention. There is no perfect application but I like to throw a variety of herbs, flowers and veggies for fall and spring and something is bound to sprout. Even if it just gets someone to notice and makes them smile, it may inspire them to plant a garden of their own. I like to think of it as edible/beautiful living graffiti in a way. :)
Yes, that's true. I hope I didn't come across trying to be negative about it. 😊
It's all good! Glad to connect. Enjoy the day!
