A bottle for storing grass seeds, soil, and/or fertilizer used for filling a golf divot is provided. The bottle includes a bottom section having a base and a perimetrical sidewall extending therefrom to an open end to define an interior. A pair of bosses extend outwardly from the sidewall at the open end. The top section has a perimetrical edge and a top surface with a spout extending therefrom for discharging the contents of the bottle. A pair of latches that extend from the perimetrical edge and pivot downwardly to engage the bosses to secure the top section to the bottom section. The bottle can also be part of an assembly that includes the bottle and a holder.

A spreader for broadcasting granular or particulate material over a surface includes a dual rotor configuration, a material deflection system, and a portable electronic device holder. The material deflection system includes components for deflecting material broadcasted by each of the rotors. The spreader includes a walking speed indicator to inform the user whether the current speed is too fast, too slow, or within an acceptable reference range.

A hand-held spreader is provided having a base with a mechanism for spreading particulate material response to turning a hand crank. The base is universally attachable to hoppers of different types which provide particulate material to the base for spreading. Different types of hoppers when attached to the base can adapt the spreader to spread different particulate material, such as of seed or salt. Teeth may be provided along upper edge of the hopper for use in scooping up particulate material into the hopper. Another type of hopper which can be attached to the base has a closed top end to provide a sealed container of particulate material, and has a sealing member releasable from the hopper to allow flow of particulate material from the hopper to the attached base.

A gardening material dispensing apparatus configured for dispensing gardening material. The gardening material dispensing apparatus includes a convertible container assembly configured to contain a supply of the gardening material, a dispensing conduit configured to flow the gardening material from the container assembly continually based on gravity to a selected area, and at least one material agitator assembly operably coupled to the dispensing conduit and configured to controlled quantities of the gardening material by controlling a speed of rotation of an agitator impeller.

The dispensing conduit dispenses a precise amount of the gardening material continuously onto the selected area.

A portable granular material spreader including an enclosure adapted to dispense granular material through an outlet, and a pressurized air source. A chamber has first, second, and third passageways, and containing a distributor therein, the first passageway in fluid communication with the outlet to receive the granular material by virtue of gravity from the outlet with the distributor controlling a flow rate of the granular material in the chamber, the second passageway in fluid communication with the pressurized air source, and the third passageway for discharging the granular material entrained in pressurized air from the pressurized air source. A conduit being in fluid communication with the second passageway and the enclosure, the conduit end being sufficiently distal from the outlet to not result in aerating the granular material proximate the outlet while preventing a reverse flow of the granular material at the outlet during operation of the spreader.

The present seed spacing and planting device consists of a planar member with a plurality of sidewalls having beveled edges extending vertically therefrom, with an integral or removable grid. A plurality of evenly spaced pegs or apertures are disposed along the face of the base, aligned with said sidewalls. The present device is pressed into the ground, edges downwards, to create a plurality of depressions for planting either seeds or seedlings therein. For embodiments having pegs, the pegs automatically create the depressions because they are pressed into the soil along with the beveled edges. For embodiments having apertures, a dibble is additionally provided which is pushed through said apertures for creating the planting depressions.
