Step 1:
- Fill the tray with 70x70 sized pots.
- Make sure the pots are at the same height.
- Fill the pots with potting mix.
- Give them a knock.
- Top the pots back up.

Step 2:
- Put one label into each tray.
- Create a small dip in each pot, as deep as the seeds are wide.
- Sprinkle 10 to 20 seeds in each dip.
- Give the tray a few light knocks to partially cover the seed.

Step 3:
- Soak the completed tray in water.
- Wait until you can see water rising to the surface of the potting mix, then remove the tray.
- Be careful, the tray will be much heavier!
