FAQs
What are the dimensions of the seed tin?
The seed tin measures approximately 22cm Wide x 16cm High x 15.5cm Deep.
How many compartments does the tin have?
The seed tin comprises 3 internal compartments for storage.
What materials are included in the gift set?
The set includes: 50 wooden plant labels, 8 x 6cm wood fibre pots, 10 seed envelopes, and seed tin dividers, along with the French grey seed storage tin.
Is the seed tin suitable for outdoor storage?
While durable, it is best kept in a dry, sheltered location like a shed or indoors to prevent rust and maintain its condition. It is not fully weatherproof for permanent outdoor exposure.
Can I store larger gardening tools in this tin?
No, the tin is designed for small items such as seed packets, labels, and small hand tools. It is not large enough for bigger tools.
Are the wood fibre pots reusable?
Wood fibre pots are biodegradable and intended for seedling germination. They can be planted directly into the ground with the seedling, but are not designed for long-term reuse.
What type of finish does the tin have?
The tin has a powder-coated steel finish in a French grey color.
Troubleshooting
Tin lid does not close properly
Ensure that the contents inside are not overfilled or protruding above the compartment dividers. Rearrange items to allow the lid to sit flush.
Wooden labels are difficult to write on
Use a fine-tipped pencil or a permanent marker for best results. Ensure the surface of the label is clean and dry before writing.
Wood fibre pots are deteriorating quickly
These pots are biodegradable and designed for initial germination. If they are degrading too rapidly, it may indicate excessive moisture in their storage or handling area. Store them in a dry place.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: This product requires no assembly. Simply unpack the components and arrange them within the seed tin's compartments as desired. The wooden plant labels can be written on with a pencil or permanent marker. The seed envelopes are ready to be filled with your chosen seeds.
Compatibility: The tin is designed to hold standard seed packets, wooden plant labels, small trowels or hand forks, and other diminutive gardening tools. The wood fibre pots are suitable for starting most small seeds.
Care: To clean the French grey seed tin, wipe it with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or submerging the tin in water, as this could lead to rust or damage the powder coating. Ensure the tin is dry before storing seeds to prevent moisture buildup. The wooden components (labels, pots) are biodegradable and will naturally break down over time if exposed to moisture; store them in a dry environment.
