Seed planters for gardeners range in size from small hand held devices designed to plant small
flower and seeds in seed flats and garden rows to larger units which will plant larger quantities
of seed directly in the garden. A seed planter can make life much easier for you if you usually
plant large quantities of seeds.
The Seedmaster and Mini-Seedmaster are seed planters which resemble a hypodermic needle. Load the
seeds into the tube and push the plunger. This dispenses the seeds singly, reducing the need for
thinning seedlings later. Both these seeders are for smaller seeds like tomato and lettuce.

The Pro Seeder uses a small blast of air to plant the seeds. It consists of a rubber bulb which is
squeezed, and thus dispenses the seed. There are three needles included with the seeder to allow its
use with several different sizes of seed in the planter.
The Dial Seed Sower is a pretty simple concept and equally easy to use. You load the seed in the
planter, choose from one of five settings and then tap the sower gently to dispense the seed. Unused
seed can be put back into the packet using the funnel shaped spout.
Seedmaster II uses a manual vibrator to dispense the seeds. There are four interchangeble baffles
which snap into the "V" shaped snout. You turn a small plastic wheel which vibrates the seed planter,
dispensing the seed evenly and easily.
Larger needs can be met with the Earthway Precision Garden Seeder. You can plant up to twenty eight
different kinds of seeds in the garden. It opens the soil, spaces and plants the seed, packs the soil
and then marks the next row in one operation. This seed planter includes six planting plates
which
will accomadate most garden seeds like sweet corn, beans, carrots and beets.
A well chosen seed planter can make the garden experience much easier and fun.
