Questions & Answers about Plantaré una semilla de lechuga en cada bolsa de lana reutilizable.

What verb tense is plantaré, and how is it formed?

Plantaré is the first-person singular of the simple future (futuro simple). You form it by taking the infinitive plantar and adding the ending –é. It means “I will plant.”

Could we use sembraré instead of plantaré, and is there a difference?

Yes, you can use sembraré. Both verbs mean “to sow/plant,” but:

• Sembrar often refers specifically to sowing seeds.
• Plantar can mean planting any kind of plant or seed.
  In this context, they’re interchangeable—sembraré una semilla emphasizes that you’re sowing the seed.

Why do we say una semilla de lechuga instead of just semilla de lechuga?

Spanish typically requires an article before singular countable nouns. Una semilla (a seed) specifies one unspecified seed. Omitting the article (saying semilla de lechuga) sounds incomplete or like a heading.
