Seed Bombs

The Seed Bomb(or Green Grenade)in whatever form it takes is designed to enable seeds to be sown in a hard to reach place and in locations where a gardener is unable to spend long preparing the ground for conventional sowing.



1. Classic Clay Seed Ball



A mixture of clay soil(or potter's powder),compost and seeds in the ratio of 5:1:1 with water to bind.


2.Seed Balloon

Vanessa 6111 is a very high-tech and industrious guerrilla gardener.In 2009 she developed a wide range of seed dispersal methods of which the Seed Balloon
was the simplest.It is a biodegradable rubber balloon filled with a few seeds and hellium,held with a string.


3.Seed Pills

Another creation by Vanessa is the seed pill.This is a versatile micro seed bomb.Seeds and compost are packed into a biodegradable pill capsule ready to be thrown.There is also a modified version designed as a self-destructiing piece of jewelry.The pill is glued lightly onto a metal pin and falls off at a moment of nature's choosing!The pill is designed to fracture on impact with the ground.
