Good afternoon, my reader. In order for seedlings to occupy a minimum place in the house, the best way to save free space is to grow seeds in snails. They allow you to cultivate any kinds of plants. Thanks to the compact design, you can place all crops on the windowsill. Snail is a small bundle of fabric or cellophane, where seedlings are stacked.

Pre-seeds need to be prepared for germination: thoroughly go through, disinfection and harden, before seeding it is pre-soaked and disinfected.
For the manufacture of snail, we need the following things:
- table;
- substrate for laminate;
- Containers with low sides;
- plastic bags;
- gum for bills;
- tweezers;
- priming;
- seeds for seedling;
Next, you need to perform the following actions:
- Expand part of the substrate tape and move one edge to yourself.
- Pour the soil across the entire width of the tape, to take a hand to the thickness does not exceed 1 cm.
- Fully close the tape by the soil, decompose the seeds at a distance of a pair of centimeters from one of the edges, between the seeds leave several centimeters, each seed slightly press the ground into the ground.
- Ribbon with a soil tightly roll into a roll to the ground limit.
- Hold your hand roll, pour out some more soil until the tape is completely closed.
- To drag a bundle with a rubber band, insert a bag of seeds under it to know what exactly grow in this snail.
- It is thoroughly pouring snail and wear a plastic bag to create a greenhouse effect.
- Finished snails set in containers.
- As soon as shoots appear, the package must be removed.
Seedlings in snails need to ensure a sufficient amount of light and how to water. For this purpose, it is better to keep the snails on the windowsill on the sunny side of the house. Seedlings in snails are also very convenient to dive when the sprouts will be in the lower cut of the snail.

To create a diaper, you need to cut a film on smooth pieces with a size with a sheet of notebook, put a spoonful of a wet soil. Rostock put roots to the soil, and leaves - outside the film. Further on the roots, we smell still soil, fold the film in half and turn into a roll. The sprout in the diaper is bonding with a rubber band, watering water with fertilizers, then rearrange the seedlings back to the containers and return to the windowsill.
So that the seeds in the snail grew well, you need to follow the following rules:
- remove the cellophan from the snail immediately when the first germs appear so that there is no greenhouse effect;
- There should be no toilet paper in the snail, as it does not feed the sprouts and does not hold water;
- Snail and diaper should be rolled tight to seeds not slip down;
- The top and bottom edges of the film must be correctly installed in the container;
- Peak seedlings only in the lower cut of the snail.
Such simple tips will help you save space and compactly contain seedlings.
