Seed Depth

The planting depth of seeds in your Garden Starter Tray will not necessarily be the same as

recommended on seed packets from suppliers. Each Grow Sponge has a small, tapered hole

near the center called a Dibble. The Dibble is adequate for most small and medium sized

seeds. For larger seeds, the Dibble may need to be enlarged. We recommend using a Tray

Layout or Seeding Log to keep track of which Dibbles need to be enlarged. Please refer to the

table on page 7 for some guidelines on planting depths.

Changing Dibble Size

Enlarging Dibble size requires only tweezers.

• Open tweezers to desired width of Dibble opening.

• Insert open tweezers into Dibble to desired depth, then

close tweezers.

• Pull up on closed tweezers to remove part of Grow Sponge.

• Repeat above steps until Dibble is desired depth.

• Be sure to make all Dibble adjustments before seeding

the Tray.
