Shrewd Seed-Starting Suggestions.

This article from Mother Earth News provides several seed-starting suggestions. One suggestion is to fold newspaper into small pockets to give away excess seedlings. Another suggestion is to plant seeds inside eggshells and then break the eggshell and spread it around the plant when it's ready to be planted outdoors. Additionally, the article suggests using a shallow tray and a folded brown paper towel to start tomato seedlings, and then transferring the sprouted seedlings to small pots containing soil. These methods are useful for starting seeds and can be especially helpful with old seeds. [Extracted from the article]
