of treesneedtobehugged
Do not see those detestable lots of bare ground at the side of the roads? 
Have you fantasized about those ugly spaces filled with flowers, but you were afraid of being prosecuted?
You can not spend to buy plants to be transplanted?
Or is it too difficult to reach the area that you would like intervenirte?
And how many times this kind of thought you went through your head, how many lots are abandoned or neglected flower bed you cross in your life.
Well, what we want for you is a seed bomb (bomb suits). It 's economic, natural and organic, easy to make, easy to carry in your pocket and also very efficient to cover large areas quickly.
The seed bomb is the trump card of guerrilla gardeners who want to reach their goal quickly and well.
Materials
-Clay (clay), dried (one to model, is found in toy stores, art supplies, decoupage, hobby and model making. It looks like a stick of Das or stucco and costs very little);
Water-
Semi-flower-resistant (such as sunflower, forget-me, Arabis);
Compost or worm-casting
-A large flat surface (I used the lid of the yogurt)
Of river-clay (or silt, clay or fertilizer). It is found in most garden stores or aquariums supplied in the form of beads.
Procedure:
the cutting of the clay
Cut a thin slice from the loaf of clay.
Surface mash on a broad and flat, then cospargila compost. More compost gives a greater chance of success with your seeds.
Add a few seed (two, or more, depending on the size and quality).
Carefully add a few drops of water (be careful not to overdo it, pour a little at a time).
Close in on 'the same layer of clay and molds in the shape of the ball. make sure the seeds are inside.
Now ripassatela for a bit 'of times in the compost until it is completely covered by a good layer.
Ok, now let it dry in the sun and you're done.
Repeat as many times as you want to fill the pockets of the pants, jacket and backpack your own and your friends, then you can bring the green where there is only a neglected piece of land.
If you want to ensure a safe and rich flowering remember to water!
This is a basic recipe described: find your formula (for example with green clay in herbal medicine sold by the kilo instead of cake) and act.
A more simple and fast, is to be guerrillagardening.it : wrap in newspaper soil, fertilizer, seeds and flowers you'd like to see grow. The whole soaked in water.
Be careful to keep your raids within the limits of legality.
