Making an Appearance is...

That's right, the basil!

I'm so proud of them. Of the six seed pellets so far, 4 have peeked forth from the dirt. I'm so happy to see them. They are so tiny! I had not a clue that they'd be this much smaller than the other kinds of basil I have grown, but they are miniatures. The Poor Man's Weather Glasses are somewhat poking from the dirt as well, but I can't yet focus the camera on them since they are so wee as well. But on the other hand, look at THIS! This fellow has reared his ugly head and said HELLO!!!! Lovely sunflowers, I just can't wait until they are strong enough and I've tended their space enough to plant them. Very, VERY exciting.

Speaking of the planting place ^^ I purchased some garden gloves finally so yanking up the defiant beast of a thorny bush can be removed. As well as buying some bulbs! I though about it a bit and decided that I'm gonna use the large rocks in the garden as separators! Kind of? Its a theory. But I got dahlias for the spot and we'll see how they turn out. Very exciting people, this week looks great!

Preparing for January

Alrighty guys! So I don't know if I mentioned this to you guys, but I've been cleaning up the room a bit, reorganizing it for the new plans of becoming an herb gardener. First Aloe plant has been placed in a nice, not in direct sunlight place, and has been given one of the food sticks that I give to all my plants. Hopefully that will help him through the winter months, since there are only so many of them. Hehehe. Cheating I know. But still! And I have begun preparing soil for growing the parsley. Apparently mine got kind of dry and chunky in the closet, so I'm turning in healthy soil with the dry stuff and when January comes, bet your feeties I'm gonna plant me a parsley.
