Garden Experiment #2. I want edible crops in the winter. Is it wishful thinking in Chicago?
And here’s what else I’ve discovered: I can make a greenhouse within my greenhouse (exploding head emoji).
Seedling ID #2. Genovese Basil. Sowing Difficulty: 2/10
As you harvest, be sure to get all those smells in, it probably helps prevent cancer.
Garden Experiment #1: Sowing perennial seeds nature’s way, well, close to it.
The sheer thrill of perennial seeds popping up is not easily surpassed. It means I got everything right: enough water, enough light, just-right temperate, right timing, right planting depth, etc.
Seedling ID #1: Cilantro. Sowing Difficulty 1/10
This Seedling ID bank will help you and me ID our seedlings and prevent us from getting super excited over some damn Buckthorn.
