Sprout seeds before planting. Cut a three inch strip from a sheet of Viva Paper Towels, dampen, and lay it on top of a strip of Saran Wrap. Place the seeds on top of the paper towel at the intervals recommended on the seed packet. Cover with another strip of damp Viva Paper Towels, then roll the paper and plastic together, place in a Baggie, and store in a warm place. When the roots begin to sprout, remove the Baggie, unroll the Saran wrap, plant the strip of Viva Paper Towels in a well-tilled garden bed, cover with a fine layer of soil, and water thoroughly. The Viva Paper Towel acts as a mulch to inhibit dehydration and soon dissolves, ensuring a perfectly spaced row of seedlings.
