Germinating seeds paper towel

1. Fold a paper towel in half, and then half again, to create four more layers or so.

2. Moisten the paper towel with water from a spray bottle.

3. Place the folded paper towel in a plastic bag. The paper towel should sit on the side of the bag and not the folded bottom.

4. Place the seeds on top of the paper towel. Use 10 seeds for easy percent calculation if you are testing germination rates.

5. Close the bag and wait for the seed to germinate (approximately one week). Check the humidity level in the bag every two days. If it starts to dry, spray the paper towel with more water from your spray bottle. Do not add so much water that puddles in the bag. If they do, it is poured out.

There is no point in losing money to buy new seeds for next season if you do not have to. There is no sense in wasting time and planting valuable seed effort more than a year old. Sacrifice some of those leftovers for the sake of probable viability with common household materials. You can germinate some test subjects easily using a paper towel without any soil.

Instructions

1. Moisten a paper towel with water and squeeze out excess water. Propagation towel at full speed and fold in half.

2. Put 10 seeds from a single packet in the middle of the folded towel. Space out uniformly.

3. Fold the other half of the towel over to cover the seeds.

4. Slide the paper towel into a plastic food storage bag and seal its closure.

5. Write the date and variety of seeds in the bag with a marker.

6. Set the pack in a hot spot of direct sunlight. The top of your refrigerator or above a water heater are good options.

7. Check the seeds for germination in two or three days. Depending on the variety, seeds take from several days to two weeks to germinate.

8. Monitor progress every day thereafter. Spritz the top layer of the paper towel with water if it feels like it has started to dry.

9. Count the germinated seeds. The germination of the seeds of the 10 gives A100 percent success rate, which indicates that the rest of the seeds in the package are viable. Ninety percent is an excellent germination rate, while 80 percent is still good. If only 60 to 70 percent of the seeds germinate. Use the package, but sow the seeds thicker than it would otherwise be. Throw away the package immediately if only 50 percent of the seeds germinate or less.

Dressing a wok with a paper towel

Woks are the Asian equivalent of a cast-iron skillet. These deep, round-based pans are used for a variety of cooking styles, but their cast iron or carbon steel structure requires seasoning before use. Condiment infuses the metal with oil, sealing the pores on the surface and making the wok non-stick. Paper towels are used for seasoning, as they are readily available and disposable. It is only necessary to season the wok after the purchase and if the mild seasoning disappears.

Instructions

1. Scrub a new wok with soap and water to remove the oil coating used for shipping.

2. Wipe dry wok inside and out with paper towels.

3. Heat the wok over low heat on the stove.

4. Ball a paper towel and hold it at the end of a pair of tweezers to avoid burning your hand.

5. Dip the paper towel in vegetable oil and rub the inside of the wok with the paper towel.

6. Discard the paper towel and repeat greasing the hot surface until the paper towel is peeled off the pan without black on it, indicating that your wok is ready to cook.

7. Rub the inside of the wok after washing and drying before storage to keep the rust at bay.
