{"product_id":"ambassador-dial-seed-sower","title":"Ambassador Dial Seed Sower","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Ambassador Dial Seed Sower is a small handheld gardening tool that takes the guesswork out of sowing tiny seeds. Rather than tipping a whole packet of seeds into your hand and scattering them by eye, this pocket sized dial meters out and separates individual seeds so you can sow them one at a time, evenly spaced, directly into a tray, pot or drill. It is a simple, inexpensive seed propagator accessory that saves seed, saves time thinning out overcrowded seedlings later, and gives far more accurate results than sowing by hand.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRotating dial with multiple sized openings to suit a wide range of seed sizes, from tiny lettuce and carrot seeds to larger seeds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMeters out and separates seeds so only one is released at a time\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompact, pocket sized and lightweight for easy one handed use around the garden or greenhouse\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRefillable compartment that slides open to load seeds and return any that are unused\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReduces seed wastage and cuts down on the need to thin out overcrowded seedlings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow to Use\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOpen the sliding compartment and tip in a small amount of seed from your packet. Twist or rotate the dial to select the opening that best matches the size of the seed you are sowing, a small opening for fine seed such as lettuce or carrot, a larger opening for bigger seeds. Hold the tool over your seed tray, pot or drill and gently tap or tilt it so a single seed drops through the chosen opening at a time, moving along the row or across the tray to space seeds evenly as you go. Once finished, slide the compartment open again and tip any unused seed back into its original packet for storage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eType: Handheld dial seed sower with adjustable seed sized openings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePack quantity: 1 tool\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaterial: Durable plastic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrand: Ambassador\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is a dial seed sower and what does it do?\u003c\/strong\u003e It is a small handheld gardening tool with a rotating dial of different sized openings that meters out seeds one at a time, so you can sow small or fiddly seeds evenly spaced instead of scattering a whole handful at once.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWhat size seeds can I use it with?\u003c\/strong\u003e The dial has multiple opening sizes, so it works well with a broad range of seeds, from very fine seeds like lettuce, carrot and poppy through to larger seeds such as beetroot or pea, by selecting the appropriate setting.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDoes it reduce seed waste?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, because seeds are released individually rather than scattered by hand, you sow only what you need and can tip any unused seed straight back into the packet afterwards.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWhy is even spacing important when sowing seeds?\u003c\/strong\u003e Evenly spaced seeds grow into evenly spaced seedlings, which reduces overcrowding and the amount of thinning needed later, giving each young plant more room, light and nutrients from the start.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Ambassador","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55609700450690,"sku":"311872","price":0.77,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0918\/5024\/4482\/files\/308810_20130315161953_1024.jpg?v=1756486496","url":"https:\/\/essentialsfix.co.uk\/products\/ambassador-dial-seed-sower","provider":"Essentials Fix","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
