    Guerilla gardening or the practice of cultivating small pockets of land without the consent of the owner is now an established part of the urban scene. Because of the lack of cosent the planting usually takes place after dark when there are few people around to notice. However one technique than can be employed during the day is seed bombing. Seed bombs are made from a mixture of clay seeds and fertilizer which is rolled into small round balls which can be scattered on patches of bare soil. Once it rains the clay softens and with luck the seeds will germinate. Seed bombs are not new as is clear from this video on YouTube which is over four years old.
