I cannot tell you amount of fresh herbs, not to mention money, that I waste while cooking. recipes always call for a fraction of the herb that you have to buy! This saddens my greatly. :( So I decided to start my own indoor herb garden, which should be quite the adventure. I have heard a lot of herb garden horror stories.
Nonetheless I have been very excited to plant mine! I found this great little kit on
Olive Barn.
It is a great kit, it comes with everything you need to start growing right away; pots, seeds, even dirt! It is even uber cute to boot! Plus you can choose which herbs you want to grow. I decided to start with chives, cilantro and parsley since those seem to be the herbs I use the most. If this all work out well I plan to expand my garden.
I was so eager to get started! It seemed like to took forever to get my package. When it finally came I had to work the next three night shifts! So I was very excited when I finally got to put it all together!
I bought some extra dirt, fearing I wouldn't have enough. I mixed the potting soil in with the dirt provided by the kits. I had more than enough dirt. I also had Kevin write my little tags in nice architect handwriting. Here is the end result:
The seed packets say it will 10-15 days to germinate. I will post an update around then, if they germinate.
