    Garden Seed Planter

    I made this simple garden seed planter over 20 years ago. I was planting a few days ago, and thought maybe its worth sharing the idea.

    It is simply an old aluminum ice cube tray, 3/4” electric conduit, a female adapter glued to the conduit, and a male terminal adapter with the socket end cut off and screwed into the adapter on the pipe.

    One drawback is, if the soil it too moist and if you set tube down too hard, the tube gets plugged with soil. A lot of seeds have traveled down that tube over the years.
