I don't think we're going to have any chives but the basil is doing really well.

That's our story and we are sticking to it.

Nice greenery, Raymo.

Raymo .... any way you can turn those little dishes around so the plants aren't leaning toward the light source? That will make the plants stronger. If the chives are under the dome with all the moisture, uncover them ... maybe they're too wet.

Good luck!

The light source is directly overhead. If the chives don't sprout in another day or two I'll remove the dome. Either way it looks like the basil is going to need some room.

Thanks.

Gotta watch those chives!

Rick planted some outside one year. They got so big, I had to prune them. They got a neat little flower on the when they would "go to seed", but we never ended up using the chives in cooking.

We tore them up after a couple years.

Basil is looking good. So does the

Too bad I'm not going to the FL meet, you could bring me a sample of the "herbs."

The pod just says "Oregano". It's the first on the left on the back row. Maybe we can figure out more about the variant when it grows more.

That's what I'm planning if the chives don't sprout.

Another week has passed and I had to trim the basil a bit this morning.



I think someone must have forgotten to put seeds in the chive pod as I dug around and can't find any. I wonder what I should start in there.
