Guest guest Posted March 7, 2012 Report Share Posted March 7, 2012 Carolyn - try a piece of cheese cloth or old pany hose over the top of a Masson Jar held in place by a rubber band, and store upside down to start to keep the water from mushing your seed - hose words slightly better because you can run water dirctly through it a bit easier than cheese cloth - paul PS you can make your own directions were posted a bit ago -- just get fine nylong mesh and glue it to the inside of the 'ring' lid for a Masson Jar, use waterproof glue and don't worry if it's not 'store bought tight' you can do that, but it takes longer - and you can also use fine mesh aluminum screen, but again, it's more difficult - Beauty is 1) in the eye of the beholder and 2) is really only skin deep. -- paul -  Dream Well.

Guest guest Posted March 7, 2012 Report Share Posted March 7, 2012 tHANKS . I think i tore up hose for tomato tie ups. I sure don't wear them since i retired to FL. Might be worth buying a cheap pair.
