Mass-planting by dropping from a plane, suitable plants frozen into dart-shapes so they spear into the ground.

So when someone gets killed by
one of these things they could
be literally 'pushing up daisys'. |
|
|
That's worth a frozen
dart-shaped croissant. |

Yes aerial dropping of pelleted seed is old, and so is using dart-shped containers. |
|
|
I had hoped the ice-dart might be new; it may still be. |

However the danger to people and stock [Phoenix], is enough to knock the idea out too. Thanks. |

Ah, I missed the subtlety. |

PeterSealy : Should be suitable for planting freesia bulbs at least. |

[PeterSealy] The seeds are
suspended in a mixture of
fertilizer and water the outer
shell of which is frozen to
allow the seed to penetrate the
ground upon impact. Everybody
knows that. M-O-O-N that
spells plane planting. |

A machine gun variation of ice darts from the back of a truck, would at least avoid striking humans and animals except for the operators. |

We've already halfbaked a seed-planting machine gun. We
halfbaked the hell outta that one. <linkbelt> |
