There is a pre made hole in the little cube for the seed to go into, I usually use something like a screwdriver to make it the right size for the seed I am using. It is so simple and this stuff holds a lot of water so you dont have to water all the time and it also makes it harder to overwater them. Then when they are ready you just take them out in the garden in your tray and dig little holes drop the cube in with the plastic removed and you are done. It isn't near as messy and it makes planting your veggies a pleasure instead of a chore trying to keep up with a million little black cups and trying not to break the soil off the roots. These are fast and easy to use.
Advice: the ph for cubes like this is a little higher than you will want for some growing, take some water and add your ph down solution OR you can use distilled white vinegar thought I have not found the vinegar to be quite as effective. You really want the ph in the cubes anywhere from 5.5-7.0, I usually aim for 6.0-6.5 and have no issues.
I'm giving it 3 stars b/c this item and 3" net pots were ordered 2nd week of Feb. & supposed to arrive 2.26.14, package arrived a day late & had to go to the post office to get it this morning. Unless you request expedited delivery, don't expect this item any time soon; but to be fair, I think the seller did say shipping anywhere from 8 to 10 days?. Most of what I order thru amazon is prime eligible, so in that regard I guess I lack patience when items don't arrive in 2 days!
