Plant your Tag
Okay you got your plantable tag, but how do you plant it?…. We’re glad you asked! Follow the steps below to get begin your own journey through conservation! At the bottom of this page are some plants that you can expect to see from your tags!
Steps
1.)Take a planting pot and fill it about 3/4 full of a good soil, make sure the pot is firm with soil but do not pack it (tamp if needed). Feel free leave your pot outside or inside depending on the time of season (our tags will not grow in a blizzard or desert)!
2.) Take your plantable tag and cover the soil in the prepared pot with the paper. It’s okay if the paper pieces overlaps. Try to spread about 1/8 inch layer of soil over the plantable paper pieces and tamp down gently on top.
3.) After planting the paper in your pot, give it a good soak of water!. You want the paper and the soil to be nicely damp but not overly saturated in water. During the first 10 days, keep the paper moist at all times. The water is necessary for germination.
4.) Once sprouts appear, continue to keep the paper moist but be careful not to overwater and saturate the plant. Once sturdy plants appear, water as needed. Congratulations, you just helped out the earth…feels pretty good doesn’t it ;)
