Seed Tape
Matt had another really good idea about how to hold the very small seeds near the surface: seed tape. He suggested using masking tape, sticky side out, to hold the seeds to the post, and then cover them with soil and screen/lace.
I did a little googling and found a set of diy instructions for making seed tape out of toilet paper strips and flour water glue:

We could possibly just roll the post with toilet paper, glue the seeds to the rolled post, and then cover with soil and screen?

This is a great idea, but I wonder if the toilet paper would end up molding/decaying much like the seed paper Michele used before???
