I didn’t think all of these Swiss Chard F1 Charbell seeds would germinate.
Month: December 2020
I overcompensated when the mildew ate my basil last summer. Now I’m the one who has to eat the basil.
Current moonbase setup: Three houseplants (monstera deliciosa, palm, dracaena marginata) and the rest edible plants. I grew too much basil but I don’t need the space for anything else yet. The upper shelf on left has this 48×20″ heating mat which gets up to about 90°F if it doesn’t have air circulating. This is probably too warm for everything except the Monstera.
I googled basil to make sure I wouldn’t die or get sick from eating a couple of handfuls of it. Merry Christmas.
I’m going to try to germinate these. They’re supposed to be hard to germinate. I’m soaking the parsnip seeds in moist paper towels wrapped in foil, and the carrot seeds mixed with seed starter soil over which I poured boiling water. This doesn’t seem like a good idea but it’s suggested in several things I read so why not. It’s just seeds.
Top shelf: Parsley
Bottom shelf: Fennel (back), cilantro (mid), oregano (front)
Buy seeds here of all of these if you want, or from literally anywhere else, they’re not hard to find.
