Broom handles.

No more wobbly lines of veggies for me!!

I have a very easy way of making a perfectly straight drill by using a 1" diameter broom handle.

First though you must remember to prepare the soil to a level surface, firm with your feet and finish by lightly raking the top 1" of soil to loosen it.
Gently lay your broom handle on to the soil and press down to the required depth. When you remove it you have the perfect seed drill!!!
