Starting an Herb Garden



Today I FINALLY planted the herb garden seeds I ordered a year ago (I swear).  I ordered my seeds online at a site called www.hometownseed.com, the price was cheap and I had been wanting to get away from the .99 spiced I had been using!  I am really excited about this, I m hoping to put them into pots to move outside when it's nicer and then bring back in when it gets cold out!  I am going to be doing some research on a few things I can grow to "eat" indoors during the winter so I will keep you posted!  Happy Gardening! (even if it is just in your window)

Ready, Set, Garden!!!!

I planted my seeds back in March for my tomatoes and pepper plants.  It seems it's so expensive to buy them at a green house and the cheaper ones are not that nice, so I decided to try to start my own this year.  I had a notion that since I don't have a ton of space (I really only have one south facing window) that i coulnd't start my own seed, I was shocked at how little space that actually require.  This is in my bathroom so its warm and damp, I got two seed tray nd they each hold 72 plants, thats a good start on a garden for most people, unless you are straight crazy about gardening!  So far so good, however, I think they are out growning their "pods".   I came across this today, frugal seed pot ,so I am going to try it!  If it works I will be sure to let you know and it will be an excellent idea for years to come!  Happy Gardening!
