SEEDING MACHINE

A seeding machine and method wherein a generally uniform thin layer of dirt is skimmed from the ground, mixed with a seed such as lawn grass seed, and the mixture then redeposited on the ground in an even layer onto a strip of open mesh fabric, preferably water-proof plastic, the mixture of dirt and seed and the open mesh fabric beneath it then being rolled or otherwise smoothed, the growth from the seed, young sod, for example, being harvested by lifting the open mesh fabric and with it the young sod or similar growth, the lifting preferably being accomplished by rolling the sod and open mesh fabric into transportable rolls, and replanting by depositing and unrolling the sod and open mesh fabric at the new site.
