Back in February I did a post about starting seeds indoors. I thought I'd update ya'll on the progress. Some of them did not do so good. I always tend to think they need more water than what they do and over do it causing the roots to rot. You'd think I'd learn my lesson by now, but I haven't and I'll probably have the same problem next year. :)
Even though I lost some due to over watering I had quite a few do really good. When it started warming up outside I began setting them outside and WOW what a difference it made. It just goes to show no matter how hard you try, you can't replace real sunlight, fresh air and rain. My peppers have done the best. I also have quite a few tomatoes and marigolds. My chives and sweet basil are coming along nicely too. Oh and I can't forget my dill and parsley!
Recently I planted some seeds outside in pots. I hope they do good. I planted Rosemary, Thyme, Calendula, Nasturtium, Lavender and I am planning on planting some Echinacea seeds right in the ground. I have so many plans for my herbs. Drying them, teas, salves, oils. We'll see what happens!
So overall I am pleased with the way my seed project has turned out. There were a couple weeks in March that I thought they were all going to die and it was all a waste, but they pulled out of it and I will definitely do it again next year!
Wow....You are off to a great start !!!
