About this generator
Even spacing means less thinning out later. Lay the ruler on the soil and sow through the holes.
How to use
- Set the spacing from the seed packet.
- Print flat.
- Lay it on the soil, poke a hole through each opening or drop the seeds in, then move the ruler along.
Printing tips
- Any filament works. A bright color is easy to find in the garden.
- Print one ruler per common spacing.

Frequently asked questions
What do the tick marks show?
Every 10 mm, with a longer mark every 50 mm, so you can also use it to measure row distances.
Can I use it for tiny seeds?
Yes. Use small holes (3–4 mm) and drop a pinch of seed in each one.
