What a great way to plant bulbs 😍👌🏻🌷

Egg Carton Method: The Fastest Way to Plant Bulbs

Stop digging fifty little holes.
This simple kitchen hack lets you plant dozens (even hundreds) of bulbs at once — with perfect spacing every time.

How It Works

Step 1: Dig One Trench
Dig a wide trench to the proper depth — about 3× the height of the bulb. Level the bottom.

Step 2: Set the Spacing
Lay cardboard egg cartons side by side in the trench. Drop one bulb into each cup, pointy end up.

Step 3: Cover & Water
Backfill with soil so bulbs are covered by 4–6 inches. Water deeply to settle soil and start breaking down the cartons.

Step 4: Let Nature Finish the Job
By spring, the cartons are gone — and you’re left with a perfectly spaced carpet of blooms 🌼

Important Material Rules

- Use paper pulp or cardboard cartons only
- Never use Styrofoam or plastic
- Cut a small slit in the bottom of each cup to help roots reach soil faster

Best Bulbs for This Method

Perfect fit:
Tulips, daffodils, crocus, grape hyacinth (muscari), scilla

Skip these:
Giant alliums — they need more room than an egg cup allows

When to Plant

Plant in fall once soil temps drop below 60°F

Water right after planting — moisture speeds carton breakdown

Simple tools. Smart spacing. Big spring payoff.
Sometimes the easiest tricks are the ones hiding in your kitchen drawer 🌷

please share 🙏🏼

All gnomes are handmade by me right down to every little toe and I grow the succulents myself.

This variety of succulent, haworthia, is very easy to care for and prefers a little neglect.

Water it once and let soil completely dry before you water again.
( maybe once every theee weeks )

Prefers direct light but under a lamp is just fine.
Other options for your new gnome’s home are,
on a book shelf near a window.
on a kitchen or bathroom counter.
Window sills or entry table… honestly, this thing will grow anywhere.

Gnome is $25
Customizable - custom orders welcome.
Beard colours are: brown, white, black and grey.
Holiday themes, beach theme, I can work with your requests.
I have 6 currently made and ready for sale.

Light years ahead 👩‍🔬🔬♻️

DID YOU KNOW?
Japan has unveiled a groundbreaking new plastic that dissolves completely in seawater within just one hour, leaving behind zero microplastics. Even more impressive, when buried in soil, this innovative plastic breaks down in about 10 days, releasing nitrogen and phosphorus that nourish plants instead of harming the environment. Unlike conventional biodegradable plastics, this new material is truly regenerative—designed not just to disappear, but to give back to nature.
