Wow! Check out chamomile and basil. These seeds were just sown three days ago. I guess the Ferry-Morse growing system really works. Now if I can just keep them alive...Go little guys go!
Yesterday I dug up my potato growing experiement. I took 10 small red potatoes that were about to go bad and planted them. I know - I'm not supposed to use regular potatoes. I'm supposed to buy those planter spuds but, hey, they were about to go bad, so what did I have to lose? Anyway, so they've been percolating for the last three(?) months. I don't know. I wasn't expecting a whole lot, so they didn't get a lot of attention with the exception of occasional watering. Plus those pesky squirrels kept trying to bury their acorns in the pot! So finally the tops died off and I was ready for the treasure hunt. I was pleasantly surprised - Look at my cute little spuds lined up in a row:
Daddy Spud, Mama Spud, and Jack and Jill Spud
Jack and Jill were under the mound,
along with mom and dad.
So I dug them up along with my pup,
and now we are so glad!
