Add seeds, mix, and plant

The more colorful, the better. Once your bucket has soil in it, it's time to start adding seeds. Just throw them in until you're satisfied with your mixture, give them a good stir, and add in water. Pick the area you're looking to grow your flowers and throw them around everywhere.

Whenever you plant in your garden, there is a risk that some seeds won't grow. If you use too much water or not enough, your seeds might not germinate. Additionally, any soil with an excessive amount of plant residue might prevent your seeds from growing, so you may need to aerate the soil before planting them. Soil with too much clay may also make it difficult for your seeds to germinate, so you might want to look for plants that thrive in clay soil. These include aster, bearded iris, coneflower, and more, and are worth considering as you look to sow seeds in your garden
