Well the first results of my new experimental seed starting media are in. I used only 1 corn kernel , used toilet paper roll and a growing media that everyone throws away. What is this media you ask?......
Dryer Lint! Yes, that's right Dryer lint!
I stuffed the dryer lint into the used toilet paper roll, though fluffing the lint up a bit and layering it may get better results (still working on that). I then inserted the corn kernel in the dryer lint, just like you would potting soil and put it out amongst the other corn I planted in our recycled deep root starter system.
Here is the result after germination took place....
I will be experimenting with other seeds and methods of using dryer lint as a growing media and will post the results as soon as I get them....
