i got some seeds in a gift basket and i wasnt sure what somthing ment but any ways it said u were suppose to sow the seeds in 1/4 to 1/2 deep in fine soil indoors in a pot. what dose sow mean?
--------------------
Get some "potting" soil at Wal-Mart. That is considered fine soil. Put it in your pot. Poke a finger into the soil about 1/2 inch deep. Drop a seed into that. Fill in the hole with dirt. You have just sewn a seed! Water it with a sprinkling can--the type with little holes poked in the spout so it will imitate rain. That will be gentle enough so that you don't drown the seed or wash it away. Put the pot in a warm, sunny window and water it when the surface is dry--every couple of days until it sprouts. Then you don't have to water so frequently. Also, make sure you don't water it too much so that it stays soggy, that will make the seed rot. It's really not too tricky. Plant several seeds so that if some don't make it others will. Soon you will have flowers--or herbs. Good Luck!
